Yury Bershadsky, DDS

Do Not Go Here! Pay attention to ALL the reviews. Even the one that Unilocal has hidden at the bottom. I should have looked before I went. This was 2 years ago but nonetheless it was a horrible experience just like the others. I went in for a cleaning. He wanted xrays which is understandable. Then he tells me that he won’t clean my teeth because I need a root canal and implants and and and to the tune of over $ 20,000 worth of work. I left with nothing. Two years later I still don’t need a root canal! I asked for a digital copy of my xrys emailed and they said the insurance I had set a fee for that. I called the insurance company who confirmed they did not set any fee for copies of any kind. When I called back they changed the story to I had sign an agreement to pay $ 25 for my xrays when I sign all that intake paperwork. $ 25 for an email!!! There are plenty of choices out there make an informed one. Don’t be fooled by his response blaming his bad staff! It’s him guiding his staff. Remember a fish stinks from the head! This place definitely Stinks!

Though it has been a couple of years since my last visit, this review is well worth leaving.
I had a real pleasure of being serviced by Dr. Bershadsky for numerous issues with my teeth, be it the filling or wisdom teeth removal. Dr. Bershadsky has always used the BEST material in the industry and frankly, I would not bargain for less either. He was the only dental shop at the time to use the 3-​D dental printing machine, when other dentists had no clue what I was referring to. The latter was perfect for me since I had deep cavities in two of my teeth and did not want to go through the whole root canal procedure. I am glad to have met Dr. Bershadsky as a result.
The most important fact to mention is that Mr. Bershadsky was the ONLY dentist to work on my teeth with such precision and gentleness as to leave very little to NO pain and fast recovery afterwards. SERIOUSLY. With the sensitive teeth I have this was beyond appreciation! I am still very grateful for this Yury!
For me, Dr. Bershadsky is hands down best dentist I have ever encountered. Therefore, I have always referred my friends and acquaintances to him and will continue to do so.

We have had this dentist for years only because they are so close and they had all our records. They always up sell us and my husband dentures have broken so many time I have lost count. Now finally he has a new pair and of course they can’t seem to get them to fit right. Now after taking yet another impression we called to see when they were and the office says that they need yet another impression. This is after a month. It seems that if they can’t up sell you they don’t what to deal with you.

If I could give this place ZERO stars, I would.
I bought a groupon to this place as I have an upcoming wedding to attend. I wanted to get zoom whitening done so that my teeth could sparkle. The decision to get zoom done wasn’t easy, as I have more than a few friends and my own dentist who have advised against it. But, I figured for a one time whitening at such a good price I’d just bite the bullet and deal with whatever sensitivity came as a result.
I showed up for my appt and had to fill out the usual new patient paperwork. I left the insurance part blank as I have my own personal dentist I go to and figured I wouldn’t be billed anything anyway seeing as how the groupon was already paid for. I opted for the more pricier package that included cleaning, x-​ray as I’ve heard it’s recommended you have clean teeth before you whiten. The diff was $ 99 vs. $ 120.
The dental assistant that took my x-​rays was horrible. I’m pretty sure there are some cuts in my mouth as it didn’t seem like she knew how to properly position the mold in my mouth. I think she was new because later when the Dr. Yury was examining my teeth he kept having to tell her how and where to place the suction.
Dr.Yury found a few cavities. Ok… no big deal I thought. I was expecting some films to take to my regular dentist and let’s proceed with whitening.
WRONG.
Dr.Yury then left the room and then had one of his assistants come talk to me about my «options».
First thing this lady did was ask me for my insurance info. Uhh… no. I’m not giving that to you. I explained I had a dentist I’m very loyal to and only wanted to try a new place just for whitening. This rude woman then proceeded to ask me, «well if you’re so loyal to him then why didn’t you get it done with him?”-the nerve! I explained how my regular dentist advised against Zoom whitening due to its risk factors. She then proceeded to pretty much tell me that since my dentist doesn’t offer whitening that I should just ditch him and get the fillings done Dr. Yury– even AFTER i told her how far this office was from my home. She then stated that maybe the doctor could begin working immediately (same day) and then do the whitening after… um a cleaning, 4 fillings AND whitening in one day? and its already 2pm? once i repeated outloud her ridiculous proposition she looked embarrassed for even throwing the idea out there.
Aside from the horrible customer service, this place didn’t even end up cleaning my teeth-​which was part of the package I purchased. They would have known that if they actually LOOKED at my groupon and not decided to treat me like a second class citizen after refusing to provide them with my insurance info.
don’t go here.

I went to see another dentist for a second opinion. She said I had one minor cavity but otherwise my teeth were pretty healthy. The treatment was fully covered by my insurance. In other words, I did NOT have all other issues Dr. Bershadsky said I had.
For weeks, Dr. Bershadsky’s office kept calling me to confirm some follow-​up appointments that I never made…
Btw, I think that he has two locations. The one I went to was at 2080 Century Park E Ste 1103. Los Angeles, CA 90 067

I live over 2 hours away in Tehachapi. I wanted spectacular veneers and I had the money so I went searching after visiting many offices in Bakersfield and Lancaster /​Palmdale yuk! I searched further. When I went in the office and had a exam, I immediatly felt comfortable. I got 10 upper veneers done… perfect. I then talked my husband into it. (he desperately needed them) he got 10 upper teeth also. Super professional and worth the looooong drive. I now have my movie star mouth !!!

Yep, I concur with the other review here. I went to Dr. Bershadsky twice. A few people from my office go there (it’s close, and they take our insurance), and everyone has the same experience. Basically, they seem to be there to sell services. The old hygenist was great, the new girl is TERRIBLE. She tried to sell me a ‘deep cleaning’ before she even looked in my mouth. I read a bunch online since then, and I’ve learned that a deep cleaning should only be done if you NEED one (they will measure you gum pocket depth, and recommend it if it’s too deep, etc…) anyway, she hadn’t even looked in my mouth and already trying to sell me a deep cleaning, which I had never heard of before. Also tried to sell me the fluoride treatment, the bite guard, tooth whitening, in my two visits as well. They REALLY put the hard sell, telling me that I have to sign something that says I refused the deep cleaning and my insurance will be informed. Trying to scare me. I hate these types of people. Look, if you can only make money by selling services, perhaps you have structured your business in the wrong way. I will never go back.
After she cleaned my teeth I kind of understood as well, as she barely even cleaned them! She made me hold the ‘spit-​tube’ and also sprayed water all over my face, and then didn’t offer me any way to rinse my mouth out when I was done. Dr. Bershadsky, can you please fire this person? She also clearly didn’t know how to floss either, as she missed two teeth, and didn’t go up and down both sides of the teeth. I could go on, but this is getting boring.

Good cosmetic Dentist
Ok I was asked for more info so here goes. I feel he is good at what he does, however I feel they are up-​sell masters at this place. I have heard from other people who went that they did work that didn’t need to be done.
