Ivan Andres Rodriguez Dental Office

I have been seeing Dr. Rodriguez for over 15 years now and he is excellent. He is such a friendly guy and is always patient when I ask questions. His staff is wonderful too and always helpful with paperwork and appointments. Best thing is that his fees are very, very reasonable… I rarely have dental insurance so always end up paying out of pocket. He is very fair with fees. Dr. Rodriguez gets my highest recommendation!

I’m still seeing dr. Rodriguez. Am so grateful to him and his staff for keeping my smile bright and healthy!

I have been a patient of Ivan for decades and I can’t say enough good things about him and everybody working there!!! They are all sooooo nice always and Ivan is THE best dentis and an awsome person!
He has saved my life, helped me so many times when I have been in throbbing pain (toothache is absolutely the worst!!). always there for me! I am scare of needles but Ivan is so smooth you can’t even feel it. When I am in that chair I feel so relaxed that I usually fall asleep while Ivan is working on my teeth!
Do I recommend Ivan … YES!!! You will not regret it

GO Here! !!! it’s a little gem.
Dr. Ivan is extremely knowledgeable, the office is large and spacious inside, with and VERY clean. I felt immediately at ease with Dr. Ivan, he’s a very professional and attentive dentist that immediately puts you at ease.
The staff also seemed very knowledgeable and friendly.
I don’t have insurance and they saved me! Thank you so so much!
Most importantly they seem very honest with their prices and they truly try to help you out.
My first time at this office and I am impressed.
I don’t have dental insurance and I desperately needed to have a tooth removed for my orthodontic treatment.
I was so worried because I did not have the money. I checked a few dental offices inside the «Los Portales» building and most of them gave me the same fee. What made the total become so high was their «consultation fee» not the actual tooth extraction cost, and they would not tell me the exact cost until after I had the consultation (for just the one tooth extraction). I asked how I could go ahead with paying for a consultation if at the end I would not be able to afford the extraction. They all gave estimates and insisted I needed a consultation to move forward, so I felt at the end I would just waste $ 150 dollar on just that and would not even get the extraction.
So thankfully!!! I saw Dr. Ivan’s office and went in for the cost, I explained my situation and that I did not have insurance or a lot of money.
They waved the consultation fee which significantly lowered my cost.
I only needed the «extraction», no general full mouth X-​Rays or those check ups they do for all the teeth.
She explained that they must do X-​Rays for the tooth area to see everything is fine, but that if I decided to do the extraction with Dr. Ivan, they would not charge me for the consultation fee.
I immediately made an appointment for the extraction.
The day came and I was so nervous! They did the X-​Rays, and explained everything in detail. They gave me some pills before the extraction.
When Dr. Ivan started to numb me I could not even feel the injection, that made me more nervous because I was sure there MUST be some pain involved in this.
I kept telling myself, okay the pain is coming…
When is it coming? Never.
a tiny tiny poke during the numbing then checked and tested that I was numb, and then he added some more. He is VERY focused and patient so you don’t have pain even with the injection, he was very attentive.
When he was about to extract he was just very calm and mentioned what he was about to do it, asked if I was okay throughout (because he was already extracting), and made sure I wasn’t feeling anything, then he said it’s done.
wow…not a lot of blood either…
I thank him and his staff SO MUCH for helping me and for being so kind and generous with my situation and fees.
Thank you really for your honesty and assistance.
THANK YOU!
I will be back for a deep clean up and without insurance because they are very fair with people.

Ivan is the best Dentist in San Francisco
I have been his patient for 20 years. He is caring, professional and super gental.
Dont hesitate to go here.
Thanks Ivan

Dr. Ivan Rodriguez extracted my wisdom teeth. I was scared but he was very gentle and made sure I wasn’t feeling any pain. He’s very clear about procedures and post treatment. The place is super clean and the staff is friendly. I will return soon to take care of my cavities.

OUCH! pretty much sums up my teeth cleaning. Not only was it super painful, the x-​ray technicians were incompetent. It seriously required about 20 scans because there were so many blunders.
The biggest issue I have with this dental office is the LACK OF HYGIENE. The technicians continually touch non-​sterile surfaces with their gloves and their tools!!! GROSS!

They seem to be pretty cool.
I am 28 years old, and had never been to the dentist in my whole life. They hooked me up with a cleaning and some cool x-​rays and then some extra cleaning action, because I had never been to the dentist in my life. Hippy parents, thanks a bunch!
And then they told me that I only had two cavaties! Way Cool!
I am generally sketched out by the idea of dentistry and feel it to be a bit of a rip-​off in terms of one’s general health and feel people are paying a lot for aesthetics and very little for actual medical benefit, but I didn’t feel very ripped off leaving there.
Rather, my teeth felt clean. I don’t think I am going to get my wisdom teeth extracted like they recommended, because I am a cheap bastard, and want to remain wise, but they did a good job with my neglected mouth. The thing I had to bite down on for the x-​rays made me puke a little though. That sucked, I don’t like to gag or puke. But the actual cleaning was cool, and the needle in my gums wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.
Alas, I knew going into this that the actual dentist is nothing to be afraid of. It’s the bill I was really fearing, but, once again, not too shabby. A couple hundred bucks to take 28 years worth of plaque off my teeth and even compliment my genes along the way…
Ivan Rodriguez, I’ll be back!

Everyone there is super. It’s a nice change to have a hygenist shows a little compassion during cleaning. The Dr. is fabulous. He takes the time to explain x-​ray results, and planned procedures and options. It’s really easy to come back here every 6 months.

The whole staff at Dr. Rodriguez’s office is fantastic. I went in for a routine exam/​cleaning and then came back for fillings. Dr. Rodriguez explained what he was doing every step of the way, and went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable. Ruben at the front desk is really helpful and nice, and will give you a reminder call the day before your appointment (which I desperately need).
