Alex Rabinovich, DDS MD

My experience with Dr. Rabinovich was excellent.
I began with another oral surgeon for implants, solely because the other surgeon was open on Sunday; my incident occurred that day and I wanted to see someone as soon as possible.
I came to Dr. Rabinovich for a 2^nd opinion, and his suggested treatment plan moved twice as fast, didn’t require a temporary flipper (which the other surgeon indicated was the only option), and was cheaper.
The partner he referred me to for the implants — Dr. Maya Edelman — seems excellent as well. Both are direct and thorough communicators.
My mistake was not going to Dr. Rabinovich first!

I would not recommend this office to anyone. Starting with unprofessional staff to over confident surgeon who takes on everything from implant to facial reconstruction and botox.
My implant installed by Dr Rabinovich and his wife Maya Edelman failed after less than 3 years. Their reaction — first blaming it on each other’s work, then on my body (completely healthy, no medical conditions such as diabetes etc), and eventually trying intimidation tactics and complete ignorance.
The implant was removed without my consent and against my will — a nightmare of experience.
Would not recommend this shady business to anyone — ignore the expensive designer work in the office.

I work for a general dentist, who refers a lot of his patients with oral surgery needs to Dr. Rabinovich. Needless to say, when one of my teeth cracked, and had to be removed, I went to see Dr. Alex. They were able to see me as an emergency patient on the same day!!! I was VERY scared (yes, I work for a dentist, and I was still panicking), and Dr. Alex and his wonderful assistants put me at ease. The extraction of the tooth and placement of the implant went very smoothly, and without any discomfort.
I highly recommend the office, the whole place works just like a well oiled machine, starting with a friendly people at the front office and finishing with professional and painless service by the doctor and his assistant.

I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed by Dr.Rabinovich. The lower left side of my gum got a minor infection due to heavy dirt I inhaled in the desert a week later but I called and had an appointment squeezed in for the next day and was cleared a week later. Everything is healing nicely and I’ve had no pain or problems.

…I take writing a public review of a professional very serious. I read others opinions just for background. Of course this is all subjective. Naturally, I noted the recent negative review by Dmitry O. and I wanted to discuss his experience but he has not responded to my three messages. I have also noted that there has been no reply published by the doctor’s office to the negative review…
…Dr. Rabinovich is a highly experienced consummate professional dental surgeon and I can say the same for Maya Edelman, the other member of his team who he recommends for general dentistry and implant crown installation…
…If I have one reservation it is this… One must enter and exit the doctor’s facility up two steep flights of steps. With patients exiting after procedures and sometimes anesthesia, this presents an obvious hazard. It might be helpful if a member of the office staff offer to escort a patient out to the street level…

Alex did wisdom teeth extraction for me — all four at once, under general anesthesia. I’ve got severe headaches for more than a month as a result of this procedure. He did not bother to help me to diagnose the root cause of this problem, dismissing it at once.
His staff does not exhibit professionalism either: for example, they did not tell me in advance that I will need help leaving the office after the procedure (so I had to ask my wife to pick me up on a very short notice).

I recently had Alex extract 3 wisdom teeth, with general anesthetic. I decided to take one of the prescribed painkiller pills later in the day before the local anesthetic wore off, but never thought to take any more. I did only two gauze compress applications to soak up blood the first day, and didn’t notice any bleeding afterwards. Stitches in the lower extraction were neat and short, and did not scratch against the cheeks, unlike a prior lower wisdom tooth extraction I had a decade earlier elsewhere. The wounds healed quick, and I was back to a regular diet in about a week. I had heard recommendations for Dr. Rabinovich prior to this, and I was truly impressed by how pain-​free the operation turned out.
Many Thanks to Alex and Staff!

My dentist referred me to him and I must admit I was rather nervous when I went in there, but Dr. Alex and his team were amazing it was my first time ever getting a tooth pulled and they made it seem flawless if I ever had to do it again I would definitely recommend and will go back to Dr. Alex Rabinovich!

My 8 year old daughter had to have a tooth extracted so our dentist sent us to Dr. Alex. I am soooo grateful they did. They were so friendly, accommodating, attentive, understanding and so professional. The not only comforted my daughter and explained every detail in a way that made sense to her they also comforted me! I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone.

My dentist retired an I needed to find someone I trusted. It took me 7 years to get back to getting proper dentistry.
I met Dr Kafayi via Unilocal — he teaches at a local dental school. He recommended Dr Rubinovitz for the two implants that I needed.
Procedure was quick and easy with a reasonable healing time. Now, I back to Dr Kafayi for the impression and caps.
I would recommend them both.
I like that Dr Rabinovitz is also qualified for facial reconstruction and donates his time in other coutries helping low income children live more normal lives.
Best,
Lori

I needed to get a tooth extracted and was referred here. On short notice I was able to come in and be out within 2 hours. The staff was nice and very helpful. Can’t recommend enough!

Dr. Rabinovich and his staff have excellent protocol. They are knowledgeable and very professional. I did not look forward to a dental implant procedure but in just 3 days from the time of my initial consultation (that was no charge) to the day of surgery, I am healing very well. The procedure was not as awful as I expected. I was very confident to be in expert hands.
Dr Rabinovich and his assistant were very friendly and thorough in their explanation for post-​surgery. I left with no questions and look forward to my post-​op visit in ten days.
I am an interior designer by profession so I also can’t resist commenting on a fine design for a medical office.
Thank you, Dr Rabinovich and staff for a successful procedure and experience.

My 6 year old son needed to have one of this teeth extracted, so I scheduled an appointment with Dr Alex. The office was clean, the staff was great, and best of all — the whole procedure was completely stress-​free. I was truly impressed with the way Dr Alex handles dental work on small children, his friendly attitude, and overall professionalism. It’s no surprise that most of the reviews here are 5 stars!
Highly recommended for all your family dental needs!

I was really stressed out about getting my wisdom teeth removed, so when my dentist referred me to Dr. Rabinovich, I was a nervous wreck (like, having-​nightmares-​about-​Steve-​Martin-​in-​Little-​Shop-​of-​Horrors stressed). Previous patients assured me that this was THE office to go to for wisdom teeth surgery, and while I initially had my doubts, they melted away after meeting Dr. Rabinovich and his office staff.
If I had to describe this place in one word (or two), it would be: straight-​forward. The office is very clean and sparsely decorated, and the staff is very professional. I read some complaints prior that mentioned the staff was cold, but I thought the ladies who helped me were fine — they made sure I read all the initial paperwork, was aware of all the liabilities and costs and recovery practices that came with surgery, and that I had someone who could take me home after surgery.
Dr. Rabinovich was very patient with my questions. He doesn’t make a lot of small talk, but you get the feeling right away that he is very good at what he does and he isn’t there to waste your time. Wisdom teeth surgery is a procedure he does on a daily basis, so I felt comfortable under his care. Since there was availability, I decided to proceed and get all four wisdom teeth out the same day.
The surgery went very quickly and painlessly — I was hooked up to an IV and next thing I knew, the dentist assistant was waking me up to tell me it was over! Between going in, filling out paperwork, having a consultation, waiting for about half an hour, and then surgery, I was in and out of the dental office in about 2.5 hours. It was super convenient having a Walgreens close by to pick up the recovery meds. The office staff was also great at keeping me calm right before surgery and then post-​surgery, helping me walk out of the office and get to my ride home.
Recovery was a bit rough for the next two weeks, but I attribute that more to the healing process of losing wisdom teeth (temporarily not being able to chew all the noms = temporary sadness). For me, the pain medication and antibiotics prescribed were more than sufficient to make recovery as smooth as possible. The office staff also made sure I had a water syringe, and instructions for how to deal with post-​surgery recovery. The following day, they also gave me a call to see how I was doing.
All in all, I was very satisfied with my experience at this office. Dr. Rabinovich is professional, proficient, and the entire staff made everything very smooth and easy. This is not a place where they are going to coddle you and bend your arm to get surgery done, but it is definitely THE place to go to where it will be done as efficiently as possible. My insurance covered part of the procedure, but what I did pay was definitely worth it. Highly recommended for anyone who needs oral surgery.

My doctor referred me to this office for extraction of my wisdom teeth. The office is very nice and neat. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. Especially the Hispanic lady with the glasses. The assistant Robin was Awesome!!! My procedure consisted of the removal of 4 wisdom teeth and 2 broken teeth. I did them all without general anesthesia :) it wasn’t as bad as it sounded. Very fast and i was very comfortable. Dr. Alex was awesome. I would recommend him to everybody i know. Thanks for the great experience.

Very professional and friendly guy. You can tell he’s really damn good at his job.
People keep saying that the staff is unfriendly… don’t really get what they mean. How friendly do you expect dental assistants to be? Conduct in small talk? Ask you about your day? They are helpful and nice and provide ample instruction and that’s all I need.
If you need your wisdom teeth pulled, this is the guy if you can afford it (he is a little pricey but that’s for the quality premium, for sure).
One downside, the pain meds they gave me weren’t strong enough. Not that I was in excruciating pain. But I thought this was a means for me to get my hands on some Vic or Oxy. oh wellllll.

My dentist referred me to Dr. Rabinovich to remove my wisdom teeth. It was a stress-​free procedure and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a similar procedure.
His office is clean, quiet, and tucked away from the busy streets below. His front desk staff is friendly and helpful. They were clear when explaining what my dental insurance would cover and what I should expect to pay out of pocket.
What I really appreciated about Dr. Rabinovich was his ability to make you feel at ease. He explained the process clearly and ensured that this is a common procedure.
The entire process included an appointment for x-​rays, brief consultation and an explanation of costs and insurance coverage, then another appointment for the actual procedure, which took about 45 minutes.
Lastly, there is a Walgreen’s located around the block from the office so it is really easy to pick up any pain medication for your recovery.

Very professional, in and out for a rear tooth extraction.
Thanks

Alex Rabinovich and his staff were really kind and professional, and my wisdom tooth removal went smoothly and quickly! Lucky for me I was fully recovered in one day.
They even let me see my teeth before I left. I thought it was really interesting to see those things! I wouldn’t recommend that to everyone, but I was glad to understand the procedure better.
I did it without gas– just novocaine! And Alex and his staff made everything really easy for me. I felt very comfortable.
Thanks!!!

These folks are great. I’m not a fan of dentists, but I’d been experiencing pain and swelling in my rear molars for a week. Never had my wisdom teeth it and it was coming back to haunt me.
Olivia got me set up with a consult the same day, and seeing that the teeth were impacted and there was some bone damage, Dr. Rabinovich made time to get them out immediately.
I got a great walk through on options and cost, and there was a greater than I expected concern for my comfort during the procedure.
These folks are pure class.
Two relatively minor downsides: expect to pay more for this quality of care, and have to wait a bit, since Dr. Rabinovich is the only surgeon.
