"The service here is great and the person who makes my experience so awesome is Shabi! She is so personable, remembering my last visit and giving me great oral health maintenance advice. A year ago I was going to switch my dental home, but after I had an appointment and was seen by Shabi I decided to stay. She’s amazing at her job and is the reason why I am staying with Willow Pass Dental."

"I was pleased with the entire experience. Everything was so professionally coordinated, the root canal first and the crown second, and no discomfort at all. Very successful! I would highly recommend this facility and doctors to anyone apprehensive about dental procedures."

"I've had a lot of dental work over the years through a lot of different dental offices, and these guys are the best of the bunch, top notch. I've seen 2 different dentists and a hygienist here. Really friendly staff, wonderful chairside manner, very professional, latest technology. I've been very happy with the staff and quality of the work. Also, a huge plus for me is being able to have high quality, precision crowns completed in a single visit. I would highly recommend this office to anyone."

"The front desk and staff are open, friendly and effective. I feel like we're one big happy family. The use of the latest modern equipment in building veneers, crowns, and teeth is impressive indeed. These modern procedures certainly cut down on the length of time in the dental chair."

"We are so grateful for the very professional, knowledgeable, and thoughtful attention we have received from the entire staff at Willow Pass. What a pleasure to have so much confidence in those caring for you, that a trip to the"dentist" is no longer filled with dread. The true caring, though, is manifested by the photos around the office, depicting Doctor Reza's great humanity and love for those in great need, as he happily provides dental services to the children of the world. Many thanks!"

"My uncle retired after being my dentist for over 27+ years, which made it hard for me to trust other dentists. It had been over 2 years since I had been to a dentist after he retired. I was recommended Dr. Sam (dentist) and Nando (hygienist) and they provided an amazing experience! His team worked with my schedule, since I was losing my health insurance, and squeezed me into an appointment. Nando cleaned my teeth and took xrays. He was gentle and explained how to take care of my teeth and gums better. Both him and Dr. Sam didn't make me feel guilty for my brushing techniques or for not flossing as often, which was great! Dr. Sam did the exam and had me come back a week later to have a filling fixed. During the procedure Dr. Sam took his time making sure the filling was the right size and fit while also throwing in a couple of dad jokes to make you feel comfortable. He also walked me through the process when he was creating images for the filling and asked if I needed a break or if I was doing okay during the process. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Sam, because he and his team were honest about their recommendations. He told me what needed to be worked on immediately and Nando told me which teeth needed to be watched and how to take care of them. I found the experience super informative and it made me want to take care of my teeth better. Thank you to Dr. Sam and his team! You are the best!!!!!!"

"I recently became a patient at Willow Pass Dental in Concord, Ca.
And let me start off by saying I am no longer terrified of going in to see the dentist.
I had bad prior experiences at my old dentist office in Walnut Creek and that's why I was hesitant to see any dentist for quite a while.. but seeing as how it is necessary for health and life of the teeth I knew I needed a new dentist.
I got lucky!!!
Dr. Sam Vijeh and his staff from the front office to the back are absolutely amazing!
He did my root canal and crown afterwards and it was flawless! No pain, no discomfort, quick and very professional all at the same time while making sure that I was always doing ok. Always asking me if I had pain or if needed him to stop so that my mouth could take a break.
Seriously my favorite dentist!
Did I mention that the work he did was amazing!!!
If you're in the market for a new dentist, check out willow pass dental and ask for Dr. Sam!
You will not be disappointed!"

"From the moment I walked into the building to when I exited the building I had excellent care. The gals in the office are all wonderful and friendly. The dentist was exceptionally nice and did an excellent job. I felt comfortable at all times and the new technology is wonderful as well. I have never had such a positive experience like this."

Ashley U.

"As always the experience at Willow Pass Dental Care was amazing! Both times I have gone I have left pain free and well as no continuing pain in the days that follow. I have always had issues with pain after I left the dentist for days if not weeks, but not here. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat!"

"Excellent experience as usual. Office is clean and professional in appearance. Lobby support staff very professional, immediately greeted me when I entered and knew my name. My hygienist Shabby was punctual and greeted me warmly while escorting me back to the suite. I continue to use this facility because the dentists, in fact everyone, is top-notch. I never have to worry about the care being given to me.This facility also sports its own insurance plan, which I have joined for my second year. Very affordable and very comparable to the large insurance entities. You will not be disappointed...period.

"My dentist home Dr. Sam, professional, hilariously funny, and knows his stuff. I would like to add he gave me a pain-free procedure. Everyone in the office is above average."

"I have had extreme tooth sensitivity (cold, heat, pressure, and touch) for over a decade, and Willow Pass Dental Care has been the only facility I have found with an entire staff who truly cares about their patients. From my first appointment in 2017, Shabi has been my hygienist. We connected over the recurrence of sensitive teeth when we first met, and she has used a numbing cream every time I have my teeth cleaned, to provide the most comfort possible. For this reason, I not only trust her, but also feel that she cares and wants to help. Dr. Sam also helped alleviate my tooth sensitivity this past summer with a procedure involving composite fillings and bonding. Prior to this, I did not believe that I would ever find relief for the sensitivity outside of the routine cleanings. On top of this, everyone at the front desk has always been welcoming and kind. I am so grateful to have found this gem!"

"I am very impressed w/this office. They are very warm and welcoming. My daughter and I have been receiving treatment from this office for several years. They always greet us like we are old friends. In addition the usual check-ups. My daughter is receiving braces from the orthodontist at this facility. She is terrific."

Melissa P.

"This dentist I feel is set aside from all other dentists I have a been to! It feels like an entire different dentistry all on its own. I appreciate the entire staff of receptionist, assistants and dentists.
A big shout out to Melissa and Yvonne for always greeting me with a smile & taking time to break down the procedure in a way that I am able to understand.
I don't fear coming to this dentist like I did my whole life at western dental.
Willow Pass Dental is fixing all the mistakes Western dental made on my mouth.
Can't thank this dental team enough!!
Love u guys!!"

"One of the best experiences ever at a dental office. Shabnam Sharifi really listens to me and made me very comfortable. I would recommend this state of the art dental office to anyone who is looking for a dentist that caters to nervous patients."

Annie S.

"This was my first visit to this Dental Office and this was my children's first dentist appointment ever. My son who had trauma/fear since being hospitalized at 6 months, to the point that any visit even a haircut will have him terrified. I had read the reviews and decided this was the place to take my kids after hearing that they specialized with children with anxiety.

I must say without any doubt that this is the place to take your children. The staff are amazing.

What made the experience 5 stars was the customer service. The service I received from Cynthia at the desk was EXCEPTIONAL! She went above and beyond to help me figure out my insurance. She made sure I had all the information needed to continue to get treatment for my children. I was so moved by her care and compassion that I cried in my car after my children's appointments.

And to top everything - my kids, especially my son loved the experience too. He kept telling me how awesome it was!

Thanks to the team at Willow Pass Dental Care and especially Cynthia, thank you for your heart. I will never forget your act of kindness!"

"Top staff and top dentist! Had a crown done with Dr. Khan and I can tell you, he knows his stuff! The office is very high tech. My crown was done right in front of my eyes within 2 hours! Couldn't do this a few years back.
Hopefully, I don't need any more dental work in the near future, but if I do I will gladly return and have it done here. Thank you everyone for taking care of me."

"We love this dental group!!! My daughter was severely afraid of dental visits prior to switching to Willow Pass Dental Care. She now wants to hang out and chat after visits. The Dr/Dentists and staff are warm and professional. The billing is always a breeze to understand and Maryellen has always been patient and kind while handling any billing details. I would recommend anyone who I care about to join this Dental group!"

Sarah V.

12/1/18

"All of the staff are very caring! The receptionists always welcome us and give us special care. The prizes are fantastic for my kids, and they have never thought of the dentist as a scary place. The assistants and dentists have always been glad to explain things and chat with the kids to make them feel comfortable. I also love that we can see a pediatric orthodontist at the same location!"

Dossie T.

11/2/18

"Visits to the dentist office are the least favorite of my pastime activities, but the staff, during my recent visit to Willow Pass Dental Care, made what I've always considered an ordeal endurable or tolerable. Each staff went out of his or her way to make me feel "cared for" during my time of distress - a painful wisdom tooth. I rate them all A+. I was especially pleased with the self-confident dentist, his empathetic assistant and the amicable receptionist."

Angel S

10/30/18

"Excellent customer service, the doctors are great and understand your needs, this is the best dentist I've ever been to not just for service for myself but for my children they know exactly hot to serve, I will never change dentist again I would give them 6 stars or more if I could!!!"

Rita R.

"The hygienist, Shah, has MAGICAL touch. This entire year, her deep cleaning, for the first time in my life (I am 54) since age 23, to not have any cavity filling or etc. to be done."

Lydia C.

"I shared my fears with both dentist that had to treat me on the same day, they made me feel comfortable & reassured me that my fears were understandable & they would do all they could to make my appointment as comfortable as possible. They listened & attended to all of my concerns. Very friendly atmosphere from the front staff to the assistance to the dental team. Thank you!"

"Amazing Dr. Sam fixed my loose crown. The tooth under the crown was broken so he had to pull out the stub and it was very stubborn. Took him a half hour to get it out. Then he put 4 stitches in my gum and I got a temporary bridge made in the office and in 6 weeks I go back for my permanent crown.

Nancy was her usual awesomeness! Thank you Will Pass Dental."

Chris G.

"Came in for a crown. Despite the uncooperative machinery and emergencies, the staff was pleasant, kind & courteous. Not rushing me through. When it was my turn, the doctor was thorough and meticulous."

Rod J.

"I find the staff here to be very friendly. I saw Dr. Sam, and he has a wonderful chairside manner, he was very friendly and professional. He always let me know what was going on. I would rate this office as one of the very best I've experienced, and I've gone through a lot of dentists over the years. These guys are top notch!

I also appreciate the way this office is up to date with the latest technology."

"I don't even know where to begin! Hands down, from beginning to end, Willow Pass Dental Care, and all those employed here, have given me the best dental office experience OF MY LIFE! Megan took my initial call, and her pleasant, warm vibe and kind voice alone set the tone for me, and made me feel like I was going to be taken well care of. You know how sometimes you just catch a vibe? Yeah, me too, and it just felt good! The good vibes didn't stop there! The office is great, the staff are super friendly and inviting and service is efficient and speedy. Nancy took my x-rays, and the whole time she explained to me what she was doing and was super sweet. My dental hygienist Nando was INCREDIBLE! He definitely went the extra mile to make sure I was in the know, he kept me comfortable and well informed. He kept up a great conversation, explained to me everything he came across in my mouth, took his time to show me pictures, and answered all my silly questions, etc. Astonishingly Nando had a super super soft touch, never made me bleed or caused any pain or discomfort. When Dr. Sam examined my mouth I learned that we share a similar background and went to the same schools. Long story short, all in all, my overall experience was fantastic (especially for a dental visit!) the staff and office is amazing and the vibe is super chill! Shout out Willow Pass Dental Care and all it's staff, and thank you for making my experience so great!!"

"I am 82 years old have all my original teeth, including wisdom molars; and scheduled my second visit at Willow Pass Dental. First for x rays and cleaning which was I must say a great experience. The young man was very attentive, gentle and thorough; the x rays showed I needed 3 new crowns so I scheduled to have the work done a few days after. To my surprise I could have all three crowns done on one visit since they make the crowns right at the same location. My family and friends thought I was somewhat insane, but they were all three on the same side of my mouth (one upper and 2 bottom next to each other. I was there for less than 3 hours and drove home still a bit numb but feeling great. Now I don't need to go back until normal cleaning is needed. The place is spotless, the whole staff is I must say WONDERFUL to everyone (I was there long enough to observe) from the moment you walk in to the time you leave. I recommend Willow Pass Dental."

"I am a new patient here, and I am so thrilled to have had this place fall into my lap! My insurance assigns my provider so I had no choice but to come here, but I am soooooooo happy that I did! Megan scheduled my appointment, and her sweet voice and friendly vibes made me feel so welcomed! Nancy was so sweet when she took my x- rays and went the extra mile to make sure she was producing the absolute best photos possible! Nando is the kindest, most skilled hygienist I have ever encountered! He is not only friendly and comforting, but he is really good at what he does! Nando kept me comfortable and pain-free my entire visit! Dr. Sam was terrific as well, and has a great sense of humor! I am so sorry if this isn't your name, but Cynthia (I think, I hope) was amazing too and helped me apply for care credit to cover my upcoming procedure! I cannot explain the incredible vibe I get from this office and office staff! Thanks everyone!" (submitted via our website)

"The staff was efficient and helpful Dr. Khazaie was clear in explaining what he was going to do and the effects I would feel. I had two implants done in one sitting. While I hate needles and shots, he was spot on accurate in administering the painkiller, which worked perfectly. Only two shots per location, which attested to his skill. He worked very efficiently, getting everything done quickly and carefully. He's kind, caring, and efficient. I trust his skill completely."

Girley M.

"I took my dad here for the first time today, and I am so pleased, pleasantly surprised! All of the staff were friendly, and greeted us with a smile!
Cynthia helped us today, she took the time to explain everything from co-payments, to treatment plan and cost. Nando helped my Dad with the xrays and cleaning, and was very patient with him. I appreciate how Dr. Khan greeted us, introduced himself with a handshake. One might think this is nothing unusual or special but it is.
We all have patronized many businesses where no smiles, no hellos, no thank you's, so when you receive great services, you praise them and give them a great review on Yelp ha ha ha You guys rock!"

Armando I.

6/22/18

"Today was my first day and I was amazed of how professional they are, Nando was really knowledge, and always made sure I was comfortable by letting me know what he was doing and why, no rush he took his time. Cynthia in reception was great and always made sure I understood the plan or the next step also, and so as all the staff. As soon as you enter the door all you see is smiles. I really recommend this place.

"This is my first ever Yelp review. I have never felt compelled to write a review no matter how good of an experience I have had in the past, until now. That being said, I have to share my experience with Dr. Perera and the Willow Pass Dental Care team.

I am in my mid-thirties and like most people, wearing braces was the last thing I wanted to do. However, I wanted to get myself evaluated as I noticed my case worsening as time passed. After consulting with numerous Orthodontists, I decided to proceed with Dr. Perera, despite the 1 hour commute from my home. Dr. Perera was very thorough and most importantly she took the time to explain my options in great detail. One of my main concerns was the timeline. I did not want my treatment to take longer than one year.

Dr. Perera was realistic in setting my expectations and recommended that I go with ceramic clear braces, although I was dead set on Invisalign (to spare any social embracement), in order to complete treatment within my preferred timeline. Reluctantly I agreed. Once on, the ceramic braces were significantly less noticeable than I expected. At first, there was some discomfort and it took me a little while to get used to. In those first few weeks, if I had gone with Invisalign, I would have not worn them as much as I should have. So I'm glad Dr. Perera convinced me to go with braces.

During my treatment I had bi-weekly appointments. Due to the hour plus commute, there were times I ran late or would call with a last minute request to change my appointment; Dr. Perera and the staff at Willow Pass Dental Care were very accommodating and always took care of it. At each appointment, Dr. Perera gave me an in-depth update on my progress and she was always very forthcoming when my teeth had not shifted to expectation but remained reassuring.

My treatment ended in twelve months as I had requested and I could have not been happier with the results. Apart from having straight teeth, my bite was also corrected. My teeth have not moved and my bite remains the same as the day my braces came off six months ago. I am so glad that I took the plunge to get braces and decided to go with Dr. Perera and the team at Willow Pass Dental Care. If you are considering orthodontic work, I highly recommend giving Dr. Perera a chance."

"My daughter was very scared about a tooth that needed to come out. Dentist Luz Rosato and her assistant work to calm my child first then have her pick a movie and explained what they were doing. She had NO2 which worked great and they were so awesome she didn't realize that the numbness in her gum was from shots. I am so glad I found this talented and empathetic dentist!"

Edson P.

5/18/18

"Great team of professionals, we've been bringing our 3 kids for their dental ordeals for years, great service, very friendly staff. All the assistant are great at keeping our kids entertained and relaxed while doing their braces and stuff. Kids love it here."

"I dread the dentist, always have. It's just uncomfortable when people are forging around in your mouth. Especially with power tools. Lol
My experience here yesterday was (as dental procedures go) wonderful.
I arrived a little early for my 10:30 appt. signed the rest of the paperwork and was in that chair with a quickness.
Dr. Amanda did my root canal with the assistance of Mary. She was gentle as can be with that drill and made sure I was numb the entire time. I could tell she was really concentrating on me and my tooth. She was also so sweet and funny.
And then I was told to go to next room where Dr. Kahn and his assistant sweet April were waiting for me. They fit me for a crown and 45 minutes later my crown was done. He did my crown like a pro he is!
A few X-rays to make sure everything was right and a few prescriptions for pain and possible infection and I was out of there! Start to finish 4 hours!
Man oh man, dentistry has come a long way!
I highly recommend this office to everybody, it's even super kid friendly!
Nobody likes going to the dentist, but we all should. And they make it so much less 'scary'.
Also shout out to Katrina who is not always there but she did my cleaning a few weeks ago and was so much fun to talk with!"

Soha N.

"I've been at a dentist for as long as I can remember! Yes! I have that type of teeth, not great ones !!!
I've been there done that. Now as an adult I've realized how important it is to be treated by someone that is honest, professional and a person whom will always tell you the truth about the work that needs to be done.
Since I met Dr. Reza, I have been traveling to Concord just to see him. At this point I only trust him as he is one of the best with whom I've worked."

Sarah J.

"We moved to the area almost 2 years ago now and had to find a new dentist. My 4 kids have been going here for a little over a year now and my oldest is also in their orthodontics. So needless to say we have had many appointments!
My least favorite thing to do, is anything that has to do with the dentist. I will reschedule an appointment as many times as I can before finally going. Today I finally made myself go and it was honestly the best appointment I have ever had! The staff is always so friendly and knows us! The dental hygienist, I think her name was Shaby, was amazing! She had a bedside manner that was more like a Dr. and was so knowledgeable, gentle, careful, and thorough! All around a great experience!!"

Judy B.

3/1/18

"I just want to say that Dr. Reza and his staff are amazing! My husband and I have been researching all over the bay area for a dental professional that could meet our needs. We found Dr. Reza at Willow Pass Dental, and we both knew he was the one. His personality is wonderful, he is sharp, and very professional. Dr. Reza did an amazing job on my husband's implants! We are so happy. Thank you to the wonderful staff ... they made us feel very comfortable. I will recommend Willow Pass Dental to anyone that needs implants or any dental care!"

"I’ve been coming to this practice for several years now and always a positive experience. Always. Dr. Reza & his staff are extremely kind and compassionate. I broke a crown on Tuesday, called the Willow Pass Dental, got an appointment for Wednesday, went in and left with my brand new crown in place. No more return trips for a permanent crown. They do it all in one visit. I was able to leave with my new crown in my mouth. No temporary tooth to deal with. Highly recommend this professional, expertly trained, efficient office."

I love the office decor and the staff are friendly and courteous. There is no better choice for your dental needs. Thank you for all your kind care and hard work and of course my beautiful new crowns"

Paula F.

"I had a time issue, and a need for serious work quickly. Not only did they get me in the same day I called, it appears that the work will be completed before I need to leave for a wedding out of the country. These people REALLY care about you, your comfort, and your appearance. Dr. Reza and his staff are the best. If I had known about them LONG ago, I would have better teeth now... it even so, they do everything they can to make you comfortable and get you where you need to be. My husband also goes to Willow Pass Dental Care and gives rave reviews...we both do...to everyone we know. AND..... we drive from about 35 miles away to use this facility...and happy to do it!!"

"I haven't been to the dentist in years because of my prior dental experiences. However, when I went to Willow Pass Dental, my view changed. I had a good experience from having my appointment set, receiving a reminder call, having my teeth cleaned and talking to Dr. Khan about the next steps. Also, I like to give kudos to Carol because she is an awesome dental hygienist."

"It had been years since I'd seen a dentist when I first saw Dr. Khazaie. He took my fear of pain seriously. The exam was informative, the treatment plan was reasonable and the care was excellent. I have been a patient for over a year now and have had outstanding care. Shabnam, my preferred hygienist, even polished my teeth twice to make sure I had a beautiful smile for my pending job interview. Thanks Shabi, I got the job!"

First, I called in to make an appointment and the lady made sure to accommodate the day and time that would work for me. When I got into the clinic, the ladies in the reception area were nice and friendly. It's a different feel from the other clinic that I've been visiting. They charged me a fairly cheap amount for an exam, cleaning and xray.

The dentist's assistant was also very calm and caring which made me feel very comfortable. The hygienist came next for my cleaning. She was professional and helpful. Finally, the dentist saw me and answered all my questions (I tend to ask a lot of questions!) He made sure that I was ok upon leaving. I am highly satisfied with my visit and from now on, this will be my primary clinic!!!"

"I have been going to Willow Pass Dental Care (formerly Dental Specialty) since 2006. I have always received great care from the front desk, from my caring dental hygienist Shabnam Sharifi, my wonderful Prosthodontist Reza Khazaie who did my implants, his assistant Nancy and the ladies that manage the appointments, to the dental treatment plan. I couldn't ask for a greater Dental team. Their technology is always improving so makes going to one place much easier. I admire Dr. Reza for donating his time to his Mission of helping children from abroad that might not have access to dental care. I feel it is worthwhile if you are searching for a new dental team for yourself or your children to consider them."

"I've been a patient here for many years, and have always received excellent dental care. My hygienist Shabnam is the best!! She is very thorough, yet gentle. I have sensitive teeth and she is careful to not cause me discomfort. AND, she is the sweetest person! 🙂 I don't have need to see Dr. Reza often, as I have pretty healthy teeth 🙂 , but he has done repair work on old fillings and such and is excellent. I highly recommend this office."

"It was my first time visiting Willow Pass Dental Care last week. I had an emergency and the office staff was beyond accommodating and helpful in getting me seen asap. Upon arrival the dental assistant took me in and completed a series of X-rays. Her knowledge, friendliness, and advice was way beyond my expectations and beyond any service I have ever received at a dentists office before. It is because of her that I had such an incredible experience. The dentist recommended that I follow up by seeing a specialist. Because I will be going out of town in a week, he was able to get me an appointment 2 business days later. The accommodation was incredible. I also love that the primary dentist gives back by going around the world giving to underserved communities. Overall, so far, my experiences here have been unparalleled."

"Shabnam is the best dental hygienist I have ever had! She is so thorough and takes extra care in making sure all plaque is removed with no pain. She always ensures you are comfortable and she just has a great professional demeanor. My children and I have been going to Willow Pass Dental Care for years. My daughter was very frightened to get dental work done and this was the ONLY place she felt comfortable. All of the staff takes extra care to make sure all of the children's fears are limited so my daughter actually wants to come back every 6 months. I highly recommend Willow Pass Dental Care for your whole family!"

"I came in for a cleaning, and with a toothache. My hygienist reported the concern, and all three dentists conferred/agreed that the tooth was so badly infected (because of a cracked root) that it needed to be extracted. Immediately, arrangements were made, and the painless procedure was complete within a half an hour. During the entire time they explained the details, answered my questions, were re-assuring, made sure I was comfortable/not in pain, and kind. They worked like a well-oiled machine ~ the consummate professionals!"

"Willow Pass Dental Care is one big skyscraper of awesomeness. From the staff to my primary orthodontist, Dr. Perera, they have been a godsend. Prior to 2 years ago, I was getting treatment through Western Dental. Long story short, they were horrible and even pressured me into getting a tooth pulled that should've never been pulled in the first place.

Dr. Perera took on my case and used every trick in the book to close the gap where the missing tooth use to be, corrected my alignment and made sure I left with a perfect smile just in time for my college graduation. I am so thankful for them and I recommend them to anybody, including my brother, who might be looking into braces.

You guys are awesome!!!"

"Having never had a root canal I really didn't know what to expect. Although it was quite a process, I felt relaxed and comfortable and even started to nod off. I hope I won't need more because they aren't cheap but if I do, I won't be concerned about the process."

"It was very good. I will go as far to say my experience dealing with this office has been wonderful. I was seen right away no long wait times. The office was very hi-tech clean and very comfortable. I was walked through what was gonna happen to me in detail. I was assured that if I needed to take a break at any time we can stop, that would never be a problem. I was told just to let me know if anything was bothering me. I was very confident and comfortable with the person that was working on me. In the past, I have had several very very bad experiences with other Dentist offices....I am so very glad I found this office everyone is very nice, very professional and courteous. My experience with my two visits so far has been just great. Each time I left the office I was very happy with the work that was done. They don't push unnecessary work you really don't need on you. Nor rush through the procedures they are doing. They did a great job with little to no pain. I'm very happy."

"Great group of professionals that make going to the dentist fun for everyone. I usually don't do ratings but my seven year old loves this place. As for me, they have motivated me to do better in flossing by giving me advice and little reminder tricks to floss every day. Overall, they're Awesome!"

"If I could give this place ten stars, I would. Assume each of the five is equal to two and that’ll work. Due to a very bad experience with a shady dentist when I was young, I haven’t seen a dentist in almost 20 years. I cracked a tooth on some popcorn on a Wednesday and, trusting blind luck, picked the dentist closest to work. They were willing to see me the very next day! And goodness, did I strike gold with this place. Everyone from the receptionists to the dental assistants to my own dentist (who wanted to be an ace fighter pilot but became an ace dentist instead) was patient, kind, and unfailingly polite. All my past anxieties were wiped away and I now have a new dental office to call my own. I will be seeing them for all my dental needs in future. Do yourself a favor and give them a try. They are very much worth it."

"Going to be honest, I greatly dislike going to the dentist. For me, this was as good as a trip to the dentist could have gone. Dr. Khazaie was professional, kind, and made sure I experienced no pain when doing my filling. Bonus: no condescending remarks about how I wasn't flossing enough."

"Very satisfied and grateful to both Dr. Reza Khazaie and hygienist Nancy as well as the front office and endodontics staff. I was naturally very worried about my root canal and the entire process but Dr. R’s calm manner and willingness to explain each step helped me to know what to expect. The staff was always responsive to my needs and Nancy was especially sensitive to the fact that my pain threshold is low. Am very glad that I made the switch from a different provider."

The front desk always greets me with a smile and know my name! =) The hygienists and doctors always make me feel comfortable while I’m there and they are affordable. Anybody who complains about billing has not done enough research on expenses of dental treatment! They are very fair here and the friendly environment they provide makes it even that much more worth it! lol"

"We moved to this office for our dental HMO after trying two other offices that were on our HMO list. Great place!!!! My son is 3 and had a wonderful experience with pediatric dentist Dr. Luz Cuellar. They have a full pediatric area and do it right. My son loved it and really is excited about brushing his teeth at home now! I saw Dr. Taimur Khan on the adult side of the clinic. The hygienist did a very thorough cleaning for me, and Dr. Khan did a very thorough exam. We will be sticking with Willow Pass Dental Care for the whole family. Wonderful care. The other HMO accepting offices we went to tried to upsell us extra services and rush us through the appointments — this office did not! They just provided quality care, which is much appreciated."

"Our entire family has been a part of this dental practice for ten years now. We first came to Dental Specialty when my oldest daughter had to have a crown placed on a molar. We were stressed out about the procedure but the Pediatric Dentist assured me that our daughter would be safe and comfortable. She was right and we haven’t had any serious dental issues since. From cleanings (both child and adult) to an implant and Invisalign, we have experienced it all.

Dr. Perera is such a sweet Orthodontist. She is very professional and takes the time to explain everything from initial photos needed, the tray process, and everything to the retainer (which I will receive in two weeks)! I highly recommend Dr. Perera.

Dr. Reza Khazaie is very professional and on time with my appointments. I am very afraid of dental work, but he always helps ease my stress level and was able to convince me to have a dental implant placed, this was not an easy decision for me. But Dr. Reza has helped me along the way and I should have my crown placed by Christmas!

Dr. Reza’s assistant is also lovely and helpful. She makes me feel special and like family. It has been a pleasure getting to know she and my hygienist over the years. Our entire family has had exceptional service and have never had any hidden fees or bills. We recommend Dental Specialty Group (Willow Pass Dental Care)."

"Willow Pass Dental Care is Amazing! I have to say this dental office and the staff are so kind and caring they understand. I was terrified of the dentist I don't know why but when I came in for my consultation with Dr. Reza omg he was understanding and caring. I have literally been in 5 times this month of June and I have left with a smile. I brought my daughter and son also and yet again Amazing staff and service. I feel confident now with my mouth and smile. I recommend this group to everyone, my friends and family. If anyone is looking for a great dental place and amazing Dr., go here. Dr. Reza and his team are overly amazing and you will be happy."

"I was fortunate to come upon Willow Pass Dental Care (formerly Dental Specialty Group) through a referral from another dentist for some emergent pain I had been experiencing. Dr. Khazaie was most capable, emphathetic, and professional. His staff, both front office, and dental back office, are also top notch! My initial expectation for my visit was just to get some respite from my pain, but I ended my visit quite blown away and totally stoked as I had found my new "dental home" where I felt comfortable (and I'm one of those people who don't necessarily look forward to going to Doctor appointments). If the previous sentences were not succinct enough for you...TOTALLY RECOMMENDED!!"

"New to this practice for pediatric treatment. The office is clean and staff is kind and professional. It was a relief my daughter was treated like a superstar during her visit and the wall of prizes made the office one-of-a-kind. I would recommend this practice to friends and family living in the area or do not mind the drive out for some quality and high-grade service."

We have been going to this dentist for years. The service and care they provide is exceptionally good. Everything is very clean and neat. They always greet us with a smile and do their best to accommodate our needs. We actually moved to Alameda two years ago but still go to this dentist because of how great they are! They have a pediatric side and an adult side to accommodate the needs of our whole family. I highly recommend them to anyone!!
--- Veronica G., Concord, CA | 5-star Yelp review, 2/24/16

Dr. Khazaie will go above and beyond to make you satisfied. He knows what he's doing and he is very knowledgeable in the field of prosthodontics. I am still working with him on my dental implants dentures project and so far I haven't faced a problem.
--- Firas S., Martinez, CA | 5-star Yelp review, 2/24/16

Very friendly staff that keep their appointment times. It's also very convenient because adult dentistry is on one side and pediatric on the other side. My girls love their dentist! They've recently added orthodontics to their services.
---Brandi D., Concord, CA | 5-star Yelp review 12/30/15

Me and my family have been patients here for several years and we love and appreciate the dentists and office staff. You get what you pay for and they provide quality services and genuinely care about your oral health. They have corrected a lot of poor dental work done at previous dental offices and are totally honest and trustworthy.
---Pepper J., Pittsburg, CA | 5-star Yelp review 12/9/15

This office has wonderful front and back staff. My children love this office and has by far the best pediatric dentist Dr Mahsa. The Dr is very sweet and has a lot of patients with our children not only that the work she does is out standing Our experience with this office is outstanding!! We are greeted warmly they make our kids feel very special. The assistants in back are also great Sarah and Vicky. I also see the hygienist for my cleanings who is also outstanding and very gentle. Dr Reza Is also outstanding in his work and is ver concerned of his patients needs. I recommend all my family and friends to this office. They do everything there.
---Mickey J., Pittsburg, CA | 5-star Yelp review 10/23/15

My two kids had cleanings back to back. We were called in right away. They are very calm and gentle with the kids. They were also able to calm down my 18 month old who can be tough at times! After the appointment they made the kids feel very special. They took pictures of the kids for the no cavity wall. Also each child was able to pick a toy and each received a balloon. As always, another great experience. Thanks!
---Inaaya K. | 9/1/15

Best cleaning procedure than any other dentist office.
---Saundra T. | 9/18/15

Dr. Khazaie treats each and every one of his patients with the same gentle, caring attitude and superb professionalism. I am always bowled over with his kindness and generosity. The treatment that he gives that is so special to me is nothing out of the ordinary for him. I have never before had such a positive and confident feeling about a relationship with a doctor.
---Mariam N. | Walnut Creek, CA

This dental group has always been kind, patient and friendly to my children. Our experience with them has always been positive and thus my children have never feared the dentist. In fact, they are always excited to go. Thanks for making it simple and easy to keep my children in good dental health. A very grateful mom.
