Dr. Akhavan opened the doors to her Chula Vista orthodontic office in 2001, and is proud to be a part of the local community.

The dentist left me with uneven teeth, one is longer than the other & my front left tooth is way more forward than the other. She made me sign a contract to finish treatment. Waste of $$

If you want to deal with a condescending and rude receptionist named Patty please go to this place. Not sure who she thinks she is, but she won't even look at you in the eye and when someone goes in to check in, she simply says ok wait outside. This office does not even allow one family to sit inside the lobby. I won't be referring this place anymore nor will I bring my other 2 kids here since they will need braces too. Anyway, I warned Patty about her rude behavior and that I would have to post a review about her and she said " I don't care." Okay!

My son just had his braces removed by Dr. Akhavan. Each time we went in for a visit, the staff as well as the doctor were very professional and we had a wonderful experience! We would recommend Dr. Akhavan to anyone needing braces. She really cares about her patients and wants to do what's best.

Dr. Akhavan is amazing. She did such a great job with our daughters teeth. Our daughter needed extra time and attention and Dr. Akhavan took all the time and care needed for us to have a super result. Our daughter is glowing! Dr. Akhavan's office is a well oiled machine. There is very little waiting and everyone is super friendly. Very clean and pleasant.

My ten year old daughter just had her braces taken off and on the way to Dr. Akhavan's office she looked a bit sad. I thought she was nervous and told her not to worry, to which she replied that she wasn't worried she "was just going to miss going to the dentist." That sums up the service we received from start to finish from Dr. Akhavan and her entire staff.

Not only were the results amazing but on every appointment they all made my little girl feel completely at ease and welcomed her as a friend. Not a single appointment ever began late. Not once was there an occasion that I didn't have procedures fully explained. And not once did my daughter not look forward to going to her appointments. Dr. Akhavan came highly recommended and I would fully second that recommendation. In a world where we are told everything is 'the best', Dr. Akhavan and her staff truly are.

My braces were done by Dr. Akhavan, I loved the result and that was 10+ yrs ago. She is a very good orthodontist, friendly and very prompt on her appointment, so don't be late or you will be re-scheduling your appointment. Now my coworkers were asking who can I recommend to do their kid's braces and Dr. Akhavan is the only orthodontist that popped in my head.

Where do I begin. I am a 43 year old male who decided to take the plunge and work on my teeth that were severly gapped and pushed out by my tongue over the years, (high level overview). Dr. Akhavan and her team of professionals really know all about the logistics of braces. I was treated as family from day one and all of my options from the cost of my Orthodontia Plan to duraton of treatment was clearly presented to me in a way that is understandable and comfortable.

The services and atmosphere is excellent and I always look forward to going back to the office for all of my necessary adjustments. Go ahead and make the appointment you will be glad you did! Remember to sacrifice 12-18 months for Orthodontia Work for a lifetime of GREAT smiles is a small price to pay for such a HUGE return. ~Mark Cruz
