PATIENT REVIEWS

I have been seeing Dr. Vasa for many years and now with his convenient new office location, I look forward in continuing to receive my dental care from him and his partner, Dr. Saini. Comparing it to his previous location, the same wonderful service has carried over and can be seen in the ease that it takes to make an appointment all the way to getting the dental procedure performed. The entire staff is extremely friendly and puts your nerves at ease that most of us experience when visiting the dentist. In fact, I no longer fear going to the dentist because through my multiple procedures (molar extractions, cosmetic repair of my chipped tooth, teeth whitening, etc) I have always felt safe and comfortable with Dr. Vasa and now Dr. Saini’s work. They are both generous, friendly and informative with any questions or worries that you may have. Also I appreciated that they gave me options for any accessory work that I was interested in getting, but was never pressured by any of the dentist to get a procedure done. Along with the superb service, the other intangibles were also noteworthy. The lobby and the operatory room I was seated in were very clean and comfortable and the wait time to see the dentists was short. I can only hope that my dental health remains in good standing, but I am comforted to know that I can always rely on Dr. Vasa and Dr. Saini to provide me a peace of mind if an emergency were to ever come up. I highly recommend Dental Care of Norwalk and their services!

I have been going to Dr. Vasa for years to his Lakewood dentistry location, but was happy to hear that he opened up a new location in Norwalk which is much more convenient and closer to where I live. The new location is easy to find, has plenty of parking and has a new modern look and feel to it. With both Dr. Vasa & Dr. Saini on site, the wait time was at a minimum and both doctors along with their staff were extremely courteous and answered all my questions and concerns. I have never felt pressured to have more work done than was necessary by Dr. Vasa, yet he always makes sure that I am well informed and understand all the options available to me. At Dental Care of Norwalk, you have great human compassion and interaction from all the staff and doctors and you truly feel like you are in good hands. Without a doubt, I would sincerely recommend their services to anybody that cares about great dental care and hygiene.

I have to leave a review even though I have never been to the office. I called during the pandemic and spoke to Wendy: she was so nice and answered all my questions thoroughly. I’ve heard a lot of bad stories about customer service in dentistry but to have that good of an impression when it’s just a phone call, I had to review. Great customer service.

I came in with a lot of pain during my lunch. I was helped within walking in and was taken back to take x-rays immediately. All materials and tools were very clean and modern. I was extremely comfortable and all my questions were answered. My dentist sat with me and we spoke with no rush or convenience for the dentist office. I cant wait to come back. I totally recommend.

This is a nice, office. The staff is friendly , caring and understanding. I have only been twice…and MediCal insurance doesn’t cover much, for my extra needs. Otherwise I would return sooner. Which is not the fault of Dental Care of Norwalk. I was greeted by name, and treated quickly, with-in 10 min. I was treated very well, which helped because I am always a bit nervous at any Dentist. I have a small cavity repaired and they did it painlessly and did not take very long . Very polite staff, and Dentist.

I was impressed the moment I walked in the office, it is very clean and I got greeted with a smile.  I was seen by Dr. Vasa  who was very professional and explained to me the work he was doing. I was able to see my x-ray on large screen within seconds of him talking it. I suffered no pain and was in and out quickly. I highly recommend Dental Care Of Norwalk.

Truly the BEST! Dr  Vasa Make you feel so comfortable before treatment, during treatment and after treatment. Best Dentists I wouldn’t go anywhere to get my work done. Currently on my Ortho treatment with Dr Saini & can’t wait for the results!
Everyone there is Trustworthy, Friendly & Knowledgeable. Their entire staff  Carmen, Vanessa & Wendy are always so friendly and welcoming to the office. If you have any question or concern they are always there to help. Kenia & Stephanie are so friendly and make you feel so comfortable while being in the dental chair. They make you feel like you’re family. Overall staff, office and treatment done is truly the BEST! Thank you Dr’s & Staff at Dental Care of Norwalk!

This place is amazing! Clean fresh, professional.  Receptionist were most welcoming with pleasant customer service even on the phone before my arrival. The appointment was fast yet diligent.  Im new to the state as well as have previous trauma by Dentist. The  dental assistant was very careful exaining everything and completely empathetic to my previous experience.  The Dr. Was great which was no surprise by the staff he keeps. He explained everything to me while guiding me on their modern technology screen right on the wall in front of you! I would recommend this location to anyone. I called at least 9 other places in the Downey area no can compare.  Thank you!

I loved this dentist! I cam in for a cleaning and they were super fast, clean, and professional. They gave me the paperwork for my insurance and they did a really good job on my cleaning. It was pain free and easy. I’m going back for fillings after my wedding. I know finding a good dentist is hard. I highly reccomend this dental office!

I had a dental emergency and needed to get a root canal done ASAP–walked in as a new patient and was taken care of the same day! The staff was really friendly and welcoming. The office was super clean. I get pretty anxious when I go to the dentist due to past bad experiences, but I felt at ease during the whole root canal procedure. The dentist clearly knew what he was doing and the whole process was quick and painless. Would highly recommend! Note: I have Medi-Cal and it didn’t cover any of the costs, which was a real bummer.

I got my wisdom teeth pulled out yesterday and I’m feeling great today. Had slight pain (head & jaw), but went away with Ibuprofen. I barely felt anything during the procedure. I had been postponing getting my wisdom teeth removed because I was terrified, but I am so happy I came across this dentist office. All the assistants are really nice, and the Doctors are great. Everyone is very caring and take the time to get to know their patients. I highly recommend this office.

I chose this dental office because it was the closest to my place, and also because it accepts medical. At first I was a bit hesitant to go, especially after seeing how dirty the plaza looks where the business is located. However, i’m happy to say that I’m glad I didn’t judge a book by its cover! The office itself is spotless clean. The receptionist are very nice and helpful. Both the doctors are very pleasant to work with. I’ve had nothing but great experiences going there. I highly recommend this place to anyone in need of dental care.

If you’re looking for a new dentist, look no further!! I’ve only been coming here for 5 months, but I needed major work done because I hadn’t been to a dentist in a long time. In this short amount of time I’ve been going to them, I’ve grown to love them! I never liked going to the dentist, but the entire staff makes it so easy and I always have a positive experience. Vanessa and Wendy who I’ve dealt with most of the time always greet me at the front desk with such positive energy. Dr. Vasa who’s been the one to do majority of my dental work is amazing. He’s very sweet and thorough with his work and takes a personal interest in my life. Stephanie, who’s a dental assistant has been Vasa’s assistant whenever I go in and she too is always kind. Nadia, the hygienist has done my cleanings twice and both times she’s a sweetheart. Dr. Saini is so charismatic and sweet. She’s the first Dr that I dealt with when I first came here and she made me feel good and relaxed. Everyone here is just simply amazing and always happy. It feels like a family whenever I go. I’ve gotten my cleanings, fillings and 1 root canal done and pretty soon I will be getting Invisalign through them. I NEVER leave reviews but I felt like I owe them because they’re really worth it. You get text reminders for your appointments, they call you if a spot opens up and you wanted something sooner, they play music for you, they have cables to charge your phones.. I can keep going on and on about them but I’d rather you see for yourself. I PROMISE you won’t regret it.

Most definitely the best dental experience I have ever gone through.I came one day with a very bad toothache and they saved my life! Very professional and caring staff all around. If you’re looking for a reliable  dentist that takes their time in listening to their patients and provide exceptional care, look no further. They truly care for their patients well being.  Dr. Vasa are amaaazzzing doctor  who are truly looking out for you. As a Norwalk native I am extremely happy they are part of the community and providing better care than most local dentist in the area. Trust me–I’ve gone to local dentist in Norwalk and NONE compare to Dental Care of Norwalk. I have already recommended  this dentist to family and friends because they are amazing!

I hate going to the dentist but after some pain, I went to go see Dr. Vasa who was highly recommended. The doctor quickly fixed me up with very minimal pain :). Dr. Vasa is very experienced and knowledgeable, also the staff was great. Highly recommend using Dental Care of Norwalk.

Great Dental Practice.  Both Dr Vasa and Dr Saini provide compassionate dental care.  The staff is very friendly and accommodates very well.  I was explained every thing and felt very comfortable with the treatment,  Dr Vasa followed up after the treatment.  This new location is comfortable and latest in dental technologies used here.  I was impressed with the new location.  I would recommend to my friends and family for sure.

As a young child I had a traumatic experience with a dentist which has resulted in me having bad anxiety with dentist. It’s been such a long search to find the perfect dentist for me. At some point it became an extremely frustrating thing after visiting so many dentist only to find faults at each one which were unfortunately all deal breakers for me. I’ve driven by this office so many times but never considered it as a location for me to try out. It’s exterior isn’t the most attractive as the building looks outdated but after finding it on yelp recently I decided to give it a try. This was after reading their reviews, checking out the photos and visiting their website to familiarize myself with the staff. (I like to do my due diligence.) I first called to schedule a consultation on Tuesday. The receptionist was pleasant and was patient with answering all of my questions. I have so many questions. 🙂 They were able to schedule me in for a consultation the next day. I walked into the office twenty minutes early. I was pleased with the appearance of the office. Everything looked well taken care of. The friendly receptionist greeted me and I was so happy when she handed me a tablet to do my “paperwork.” This process was quick and much better than the usual paper forms. There is a tv to watch while you wait. I waited less than five minutes after I finished filling out the forms on the tablet before a dental assistant called me in. I loved how friendly she was. We chatted a bit about things unrelated to dentistry. I was pleasantly surprised that they actually read what I filled out and were mindful of my anxiety. Thank you! I had the chance to meet both dentists, a husband and wife team. They were both very personable and kind.  I’m very happy I found this office and after my visit I feel good about it being a great fit for me! Finally!!! I never thought I’d say this about any dentist but my visit today to their office was the highlight of my day.

Great experience today! I had a filling which fell off a few days ago and they were able to quickly schedule me in. Dr. Ankit Vasa took photos showing me where my filling cracked and how he wanted to replace it. he was very careful to make sure i was comfortable through the entire procedure. the before and after photos were done masterfully. i can not think of another office to that i want to visit the next time i have a tooth problem. recommend this to the highest degree!

I found myself searching for a new dentist after feeling uncomfortable about some of the suggestions of my previous dentist. I’m glad that I did, I absolutely love this office so far! I was admittedly nervous when I first arrived to the building, but after stepping inside, I felt at ease immediately. The ladies behind the counter were cheerful and helpful. I signed in and was given a tablet to fill out their office forms. It took me a minute to get through the digital forms (some weird keyboard things, which I was told about) but after the first form, it was smooth sailing! From the time I finished the form and got my I.D card back, it was only about a 5-10 minute wait. Once back, I was taken to the space I’d be in for my dental care and prepped to go for panoramic x-rays. My kidbot was with me and they set her up with cartoons while I was given my x-rays. They took great care in keeping her away from all areas I was in that could expose her to radiation (Great job team!) The young lady who did my x-rays was very careful and checked with me often to make sure I was okay. She even gave me “breathers” in-between x-ray spots, so I wasn’t overwhelmed. Once the x-rays were done, it wasn’t long (maybe another 10 minutes) before the dentists was in to see me. What an amazing woman she is! She walked me through my x-rays and showed me what she saw, what she was suggesting, and why. She was the ONLY dentist to screen me for oral cancer and she took a really good look at my teeth. Not surprisingly at all, none of the procedures my previous dentist recommended, were even necessary. She was very adamant about preserving my natural teeth (this is a good thing in my book). While she was explaining what I needed done, another young lady joined us in the room and was responsible for going over my care pricing after the initial appointment was over. She had the biggest smile on her face and didn’t make me feel awkward or uncomfortable at all. I’m glad they had her join so that she could hear and see what the doctor was suggesting instead of just being given a sheet with no supporting information.  Once everything was explained, it was time for the cleaning. She seemed to be able to tell I was concerned with the cleaning as she asked if I was familiar with the process. I told her about previous experiences of picking, intense flossing, bloody gums, and pain…lots…of…pain. She assured me that none of that was standard there and that they used a type of water system to clean in-between teeth. She said that I might experience some discomfort and she may have to use the pick in some spaces, but not how I had experienced before. I can confirm, it was the best cleaning I’ve ever had. There was very little pain and where she did have to get to my teeth, she was very gentle. She did mention that after looking closer it seems I grind my teeth (explains the jaw pain and headaches in the morning!). So she added the suggestion for a mouth guard. After she was done, I had my teeth polished, then I was off to meet with the consultant. The consultant was straight forward and honest to the best of her ability. She made sure I understood what I should expect payment wise and cautioned me to examine all payment options as some credit providers may not disclose what your interest rates are. None of the things suggested were aimed at just nabbing my money and running away into the “rich dentist sunset”! Instead, they aimed for the best care option for the results I wanted (top wisdom teeth removal and tooth bleaching from a bad root canal), without bleeding me dry. Although it was still out of the price range for which I can afford currently, I left fully informed and will be going back to get procedures done as I can afford them! I think I found my new forever-dentist!

I am a new patient with Dental Care of Norwalk. When it comes to dentists, I am always skeptical and afraid.  The staff and Doctor made my experience very welcoming and friendly.  They made me feel at ease and comfortable at all times.  I had some fillings and deep cleaning done… both very difficult to do, but they made it so easy and painless. The work was done on a timely fashion and I didn’t have to wait long at all!
Thank you Dr. Vasa and Team!

If you’re looking for a new dentist…stop right here. You will not find a kinder, gentler, more compassionate staff. I went for a teeth cleaning a couple months ago and then today went back to get my chipped tooth bonded. Every time I had to talk to the lovely receptionists, or reschedule, they were so helpful and good about following up. The dentist and the hygienist were so at ease about the whole process, it helped to relax me. My chipped tooth had made me feel so self conscious and anxious and they fixed it so perfectly, I ended up tearing up with gratitude. Thank you so very much Dental Care if Norwalk!! I’m more than happy to come back and will be highly recommending you all to anyone who needs any dental work!

After a terrible experience at western dental , I’m so happy that I find this place in Norwalk . Very professional service , I can feel it since I booked my first appointment . Super clean , advance theand the dentists and staff are very compassionate and ready to help . I recommended to my daughter and kids and they’re extremely excited with the service . Carmen booked my appointments at my convenience to work with my schedule . I’m fully recommend this Dental office and I’m pretty sure no one will be dissatisfied . Thank you !

Dental Care of Norwalk- Is easily the most welcoming, friendly, relaxed and professional dental office I’ve ever stepped foot in . From the front office staff, support staff, and dentist. Their professionalism and care make me feel like I am always in good hands. I trust them 100%. They’re super quick in making sure you’re serviced in a timely manner, never waiting around too long By nature, the whole team are a perfectionist, and they makes sure to deliver the highest level of care to all of their patients.

I needed a lot of work done. My teeth are in terrible shape, but these guys helped me out. I needed several fillings after not visiting the dentist for a lomg time. I’ve had a horrible time with dentist since I’ve been a kid, so ntaurally, I am very afraid of them. I tend to shake and fidget. However, the staff has always been nice. They make conversation to built trust and comfort. Most importantly, they make sure you’re comfortable during the prodecure. There has been once that it took an hour after my appointment to start because the doctor was busy with someone else and antipication got to me a bit, but eh, it happens. I plan to have my check up here for as long as possible. Thank you!

I had my initial visit here based on the great Yelp reviews, and they weren’t wrong! I filled out my paperwork online before I even got to the office, and had a super short wait time to get into a dentist’s chair. As it was an initial appointment, I went through some X-rays, which were done quickly and gently. All through the process, the nurses were extremely kind and knowledgeable, explaining what would happen and asking me how comfortable I felt. Dr. Vasa came by to look at my teeth, asked what I was interested in doing, answered my questions, and explained what he recommended for my tooth and gum health. After that, he did my cleaning himself, and it was the gentlest cleaning I’ve ever had! Afterwards, I met with a woman who explained my insurance coverage to me and what the different doctor’s recommendations would cost, which was super helpful. She wasn’t pushy and left me super comfortable, and gave me a list of approximate pricing to take home and think about. I just made my second appointment to get a few fillings and the receptionists were extremely kind and knowledgeable. Thank you, Dental Care of Norwalk! I’m completely happy!

Some important factors I look for in a dentist and a dental office:  gentle on my teeth, friendly doctor and staff, uses modern technology and has a clean office.  Dental Care of Norwalk met all of this! I liked that Dr. Vasa was able to present the x-rays of my teeth on the monitor in front of me and zoom in on the teeth he was referring to easily.  The new patient forms were also filled out on an iPad instead of using pen and paper. The cleaning and polishing of my teeth was performed gently (unlike my previous dentist, which is why I switched over to this office). This office was recommended to me by my family and some family friends, and I would recommend Dental Care of Norwalk to others to

From the beginning, I felt a deep sense of sincerity and genuine concern from Dr. Vasa, as well as their amazing staff. I never once felt like just another patient. They really expressed  a desire to have the best possible dental care plan for me. I needed A LOT of work, and the only insurance I had was MediCal. They were beyond helpful in helping me through the whole process. I am without doubt the happiest I have ever been about my dental hygiene, and I have Dental Care of Norwalk to thank! Without hesitation, if you or anyone you know is looking for a permanent Dental Home, this is the one to end your search and answer all your questions!

Haven’t been to a dentist in a while. Dr Vasa  came highly recommended thru multiple sources and current patients. Let me start off by saying this was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a doctors office. I was very nervous about the condition of my teeth. Dr Vasa was very informative about the condition of my teeth and what needs to be done to improve my condition. The deep cleaning procedure was very efficient and painless. They were pretty flexible dealing with my busy schedule and were able to schedule a follow up appointment in a timely manner. I have already referred my family members to this location and they’ve all had similar experiences. Id recommend Dental Care of Norwalk to anyone who is looking for one of the best dentists in town!!

New location, same amazing Dentist! Both Dr. Vasa  make visiting the Dentist much easier every time I visit! I needed to find a dentist closer to my work and I’m so glad I found this place. The entire staff is very friendly both on the phone and at the office when I came in for my appointment. I was able to get an appointment on the day and time I wanted, even with my busy work schedule! The waiting area and exam/chair rooms are nice and clean and very welcoming. The X-rays and checkup/cleaning I had done was great, easy and pain free, and I was not pressured to get anything else done. Parking is really easy since it’s located in a shopping center. I already have my next check up/cleaning appointment scheduled in 6 months!

I chose this dental office because it was the closest to my place, and also because it accepts medical. At first I was a bit hesitant to go, especially after seeing how dirty the plaza looks where the business is located. However, i’m happy to say that I’m glad I didn’t judge a book by its cover! The office itself is spotless clean. The receptionist are very nice and helpful. Both the doctors are very pleasant to work with. I’ve had nothing but great experiences going there. I highly recommend this place to anyone in need of dental care.

Great experience today! I had a filling which fell off a few days ago and they were able to quickly schedule me in. Dr. Ankit Vasa took meticulous photos showing me where my filling cracked and how he wanted to replace it. i can not think of another office to that i want to visit the next time i have a tooth problem. recommend this to the highest degree!

My mother is a patient who loves this clinic, and I recently became one as well. I’ve been treated wonderfully by the staff and dentists, and of which today when I got a wisdom tooth removed. I was terrified beyond belief, and they were compassionate and caring. They checked on me often and remained a comforting presence all throughout the process. I’m so very happy for all that they’ve done for me and mom, and I would recommend to anyone in search of a good dentist!

Everyone in the office is always so kind and patient. It took me a lot of years to find a dental office who does good work and I felt comfortable with and trusted. This is the place! Thank you Dental Care of Norwalk for all your hard work! I would highly recommend this office to anyone looking for dental care.

Thank you Dr. Vasa and your Wonderful Staff! I was so frustrated going from dentist to dentist in pain, Your office is a Prayer Answered for me. I love the Clean office, friendly and professional staff and a Dentist that cares and does great work. I would recommend Dental Care of Norwalk to anyone.
