West Coast Dental of 6th Street

I would like to thank the team of 6thst of taking care of my dental services. Especially Dr.Lefkof always being so great and the girls in the front like xiomara always being so welcoming.

The service was a little slow because they are so busy and they seem to be a bit behind. However other than that it was okay. But then I found out I needed a bone graft so they weren't able to help me I'm supposed to call back when I get the money. $450 is a lot of money for me so we'll just have to see what happens.

When I was younger, I had a very traumatic experience with the dentist. Today, I came in, filled out their paperwork, and got sent in. They did x-rays, cleaning of teeth, and filled my cavities. The doctor was very thorough in explaining. I felt calm for the whole procedure. To top it all off, the employees are straight to the point and friendly.

Not a very good experience. First, I had my mouth worked on by someone clearly still in training and had trouble doing X-rays of my mouth. Second, the entire time I was in the chair I was harassed and inundated with upselling tactics to make me spend more money, with no regard to what I actually scheduled my appt. for: routine teeth cleaning. Third, the employee taking care of finance/insurance took my card for a co-pay while I was in the chair getting work done and never came back to return it to me. It wasn’t until after I had been checked out at the front desk and ASKED for my card back that he actually returned it to me. Seven days later, my account was hacked and drained. Beware.

I love this place and the ortho is hot Asian pacific. The front desk is always working hard and patient even with rude guests. Thank you for spreading love this holiday season even through the pandemic 😷😜

Just had my first experience with this office. Very clean and friendly with top of the line equipment. Long wait time in the waiting room followed by xrays then another hour in the dentist chair while overhearing assistants yelling that they need open rooms. TV in both rooms made it more bearable. Then the doctor came in saying I needed 8 root canals and lazer treatment then veneers for my front teeth which had a filling fall out. Now I know I needed alot of work, always having weak teeth I'v had a good feel for any damage and by my judgement theres a good chance I need 1 root canal and 7 cavities taken care of. So not trusting the recommended treatment and not bring covered for most of the work I went for a second opinion.

2nd location I waited less then half the time so a good start. There they recommended 11 cavities be treated and there were 4 possible root canals because they were close. Veneers were suggested as an optional treatment for aesthetics. So basically completely different. Unfortunately I'm not covered by them so I'll have to find a 3 option.

Summary:
Clean/friendly
Long wait
Most expensive but possibly the best long term treatment is strongly suggested.

Wouldn’t go back if I had to.
1. The man that took my X-Ray’s touched the plastic, the button, and the drawer consistently and kept putting his hands on the plastic prior to putting it in my mouth. UNSANITARY

2. I scheduled an appointment for a Saturday at 11am. I arrived at 10:58, and by 12:40 after repeatedly asking for a dentist he came and provided MINIMAL insight on anything before leaving the room and never came back. Eventually I left and disrupted services because I still had no cleaning, or no solution. The manager provided an excuse about there only being one dentist present.

3. My X-Rays and personal client information was left on the screen the entire time for every passing eye to see. This was a clear violation of HIPPA regulations. I addressed it and was met with sarcasm, and made it an issue that she would have to put a password in to reopen the screen (that is normal ethical practice).

Overall, I wouldn’t return. Trash experience, and they had no respect for my time.

Although the staff are very friendly and accommodating, and the facility clean & in good condition, the long wait was unexpected. I came to visit my mom in LA from another state to help manage her medical needs/ appointments.
I arrived for the appointment on time but had to wait 1.5 hrs.
My expectation was to have the service within 15 minutes, not 1 1/2 hrs.

I always enjoy coming to this dentist. No other dentist office helped me the same way. They have movies playing so it’s not boring and with an appointment the wait time is reasonable.

The LORD GOD ALMIGHTY CHRIST JESUS is very gracious for He gave me West Coast Dental as my personal direct dental provider as my insurance provider referred me to this dental clinic. I was really surprised and amazed by the professional expertise and capability and kindness of its staff starting from their receptionist up to those professionals who attended to me. There was the beautiful lady who conducted my dental x-ray. This was followed by another slim professional in white garment/uniform who put me ay ease while inspecting my gums, teeth & tongue and afterwards, I asked her what will she recommend for me to be done with my teeth. I was truly grateful she did what was appropriate for my dental situation & she was assisted by another professional dental expert while she carefully did the prophylaxis which was painless. After doing her part, thanks to her & her assistant, another male professional did the final dental procedure. Again, my thanks for his professional dental care. The experience was awesome. I wish to thank West Coast Dental for taking the initiative to schedule me for a dental appointment for my own dental health.
GOD ALMIGHTY bless and prosper you.
