Dr. Lam is such a great dentist, and person! She goes above and beyond taking her time with your visit and making sure you have all the information needed to keep your teeth healthy. She explains the options when treatments are needed, and is looking for the best way to maintain your dental health long term. Her office is pristine and her staff is welcoming and friendly. Truly the best dentist around!

Dr. Lam and Julianne should be the model for all medical professionals. They are efficient, kind, excellent communicators, and extremely knowledgable. I went for a a deep clean, and the experience was absolutely lovely. There was no wait at the office; both women were clear in their explanations and instructions, and so friendly and warm that I felt completely at ease. Very grateful to have found this office!

I've been seeing Dr. Lam for over 20 years now and still as satisfied now as when I first began seeing her. She is friendly and warm and genuinely concerned about my oral hygiene health. She is meticulous, careful and professional in her dental care. She is good about suggesting options, laying out the ones that she believes are optimal and does not try to take any shortcuts. The office space is clean and tidy. Julianne is terrific as Dr. Lam's support both front office and back office. I would recommend her to anyone that is dissatisfied with their current dental health provider.

Dr Lam has been our dentist for the past 20yrs and we could not find a dental provider who is more skilled or reassuring. She is gentle and makes sure you are comfortable and quietly hums while she’s working on you to put you at ease :). Dr Lam is also very detailed and does excellent work. When I first came to her, I needed a root canal on one of my molars but she saw how scared I was of dental procedures and tried her best to re-do the work of my previous dentist. She saved the tooth and that deep and wide crown has lasted 20yrs with zero issues. All of her equipment is state of the art—she’s got all the new high tech equipment to make sure your teeth and gums stay healthy, but she also knows how to do it the old school way too. She’s the best dentist in LA—Hands down. I wouldn’t go to anywhere else and that’s why I still drive up from Orange County to have her take care of my teeth. She also has excellent staff—Julianne is very efficient and super kind too. I have loved going to this office for excellent dental care, but I also love the small break it gives me from the OC. It’s in the heart of downtown so lots of yummy eateries and a quick stop at Uniqlo and 85degrees rounds out my dental outing. Pretty great every 6mo. Thank you Dr Lam and Julianne for taking good care of our teeth!

Dr Lam is without a doubt the best doctor I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. She is the sweetest, nicest, most comforting person surrounded by a phenomenal team in a beautiful office. I am very thankful to have found such a great dentist & friend in LA and would 1000% recommend to anyone in need of dental services (or just a good laugh). She is the BEST!!!

Been seeing Dr. Lam for 6 years and I’ve never been more confident in my smile. Not only is she super skilled, she is SO knowledgeable about dental issues. She’s been able to point out issues that other dentists have glossed over that could really have been a danger to my health if they hadn’t been addressed. And she has great bedside manner as well. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to my teeth because of past experiences, and she’s so understanding and reassuring. She will go out of her way to make me feel comfortable.

Also, the dental implants she did on me are so natural that every time I point them out to people, they’re shocked that the teeth are fake.

Julianne in the office is also super nice and always on top of things. She always contacts me if there are any changes to appointments and works with my schedule if necessary. Communication is really great with both of them.

I have been a very satisfied patient of Dr. Lam’s since 2007!

Dr. Lam and her longtime assistant Julianne take care of the gamut of dental needs, from routine check-ups/maintenance to additional and more extensive procedures. They are super-friendly, caring and deeply knowledgeable about oral care practices, and they spend a lot of time on patient education. They have offered me many helpful tips over the years to maintain and improve my oral health.

Dr. Lam’s practice is technologically progressive, but she is conservative and very pragmatic in approach. Dr. Lam will always consider aesthetics, but she would never recommend an unnecessary procedure. In the instances where I needed follow-up dental work, Dr. Lam and Julianne kept me well-informed, made me feel comfortable and ensured that the procedures were as pain-free as possible. Dr. Lam’s emphasis on preventative care and her longstanding and diligent oversight have enabled me to avoid more serious and extensive dental procedures. If you are looking for an extremely competent, skillful, positive and supportive dental practice/partners, look no further!
