Dr. Armel was my dentist for many years and she was amazing--talented, knowledgable and friendly. She fixed my British husband's bad teeth; and convinced him that it was OK to see a dentist. She always goes above and beyond for her patients. If I hadn't moved out of the SF I would still see her!

It honestly was one of the best dental experiences I have ever had. I have always had some sort of fear around dental procedures and she made it really easy. I would definitely recommend people come here. She is an amazing dentist and a really awesome person. I unfortunately got attacked by a racist homophobe on muni and had to go to the dentist for an emergency, she legit saw me as early as she could.
I am extremely grateful for her expertise and the fact that gave me options and described all the pros and cons of each one. I honestly believe that this was the best dentist experience I've had and I'm definitely going back lol. Thank you Dr. Armel! You're amazing!

I have been seeing Dr. Armel for over 10 years now & am completely at ease and at home in her care. I know that she is a perfectionist and cares enough to listen to & address any concerns that her patients may have. I've never returned to my dentist in Texas from the loose crown all those years ago - only Dr Armel has worked on my mouth since rescuing me from bad dental work in 2009.

I came to Dr Armel with a lot of tooth problems and a fear of the dentist. I went to her initially because I wanted a female dentist and she was the only one I could find. She was not in network for me but her and her staff made me feel so comfortable and informed that I made the choice to go to her anyway. She and her staff take the time to explain and break down what needs to be done, which for me is A LOT, remember that whole fear of dentist thing? Let's just say it's been years and I need some help. Dr Armel and Dustin put me at ease during my procedure and after.
I often find going to the dentist really frustrating, like going to a mechanic, since I'm not an expert I feel like you're trusting strangers to tell you what you need. Well this office is not that. They are clear and give you options and price breakdowns and follow up. Best dentist ever!

Great visit! Dr Armel was very kind and thorough with detailing the procedure at hand and the costs of the procedure. Dustin, front desk manager, was extremely helpful in scheduling and explaining insurance information. Thanks guys

I started seeing Dr. Armel three years ago when I moved to SF. She was recommended by several of my coworkers as the best dentist in town. At my first visit, I knew I found a dentist I could trust. (She also has the cutest Yorkie to help alleviate any pre-appointment anxiety you might have.) Dr. Armel conducts the whole check-up and any procedures. She rarely relies on her dental hygienist - you get the doctor the whole time, which I've never experienced before.
She cares about her patients and calls them at night following procedures. She also gives her patients her cell phone if needed for emergencies. I'm recommending that my parents start seeing Dr. Armel because she is just that good!

Don't be fooled, she cannot be trusted. I wanted to see my veneers before she put them in and she said no. When they were finally in, they were not the color I ordered, they were extremely yellow, not even white. Then when I went back to tell her about one tooth that was not even, she refused to fix the problem. And she denied saying "NO" when I asked to see the veneers first. She "lied" and said she would never say that. Be forewarned and get a recording of what she says to you or she will deny it. And take pictures for your protection.
