    “I love the team here. Donna always provides great customer service and has remembered me from my first visit. I called today at 9:30am about a problematic tooth and they had me scheduled at 3:45pm. I arrived an hour early and they still saw me right away. They took care of it immediately and, so far, no more pain. I highly recommend Dr. Hakim.”–Lauren

  • Rating: 5 Dentist Palo Alto, CA - 5 Star Rating“As one of your older patients, I am a big fan of Invisalign. I would have never gone through the typical orthodontic procedures for braces. People did not even know that I was wearing anything on my teeth. It never proved to be a problem. I am very, very pleased with the results of Invisalign. I am almost finished and only have good things to say about it.”
    –Lorraine
