I shopped around a lot for Invisalign and purchased a Groupon for Invisaling with Dr Partovy. I was a little skeptical but the second I met with Dr. Partovy and his staff I knew I would be pleased. He explained the entire process to me and was even able to fit in my cleaning the first visit. He was very flexible with the payment structure. Every time I met with him he reassured me and listened to my concerns. I’m very happy with my results and have also been using the whitening gel he has at the office with no teeth sensitivity! I highly recommend him to anyone who is considering Invisalign.

I have been going to Dr. Partovy for 4 years. I have been to numerous dentists before but he is literally THE BEST!!! His experience, credentials and knowledge is incomparable.
His stuff is amazing! I think customer service is the most important key when it comes to running a successful business. Everybody smiles and greets whenever they see me, even though they are super busy which is outstanding. I don’t remember waiting more than max 10 min whenever I am there. He has my trust and loyalty as a patient. I recommend him to everybody! Please try to meet his stuff and him as a person! They are amazing!

Dr. Partovy’s office has the friendliest staff. They are always so kind and call me regularly to remind me of upcoming appointments. They are also very understanding about changing appointments last minute. I got Invisalign through Dr. Partovy’s Dental office in Encino about 4 months ago and can already see a huge difference in my teeth. Their dental office is very clean and they make sure you don’t spend too much time waiting. I am always in and out in less than an hr. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get great service at an affordable price.

Worst dentist EVER… So far at least. Just look at his reviews at his Marina del Rey location. He’s a liar and a thief. He won’t think twice and won’t feel even a little remorse. He charged me $ 6000 for Invisalign and they didn’t fit right at all. I told him from day one and he said I just needed to get used to them. They were giving me blisters, the top tray was too big on one side and he told me to wait it out. I told him every week that it didn’t fit right and it was shifting my teeth in the wrong direction. He continued to tell me to wait it out. He would often hide when I’d go in to see him. I insisted every week until finally he told me it was too late and that I would have to go though the whole process again, including PAYING ALL OVER AGAIN! I had already paid $ 6000 and now he wanted to charge me $ 3300. He even refused to give me my remaining trays even after I had already paid for everything. He told me to call Invisaligns lab and to try to convince them and that only then he would do them for me otherwise. The lab said he was wrong and that he was the only one that could call and order a new set for me. He refused and wanted me to pay again. $ 6000! Nothing but a thief. They also charged me more for a few fillings I got. They charged me like if my cavities were really deep when they weren’t. He even forgot they did that and was telling me I got the wrong molar done. Then he came and told me he was wrong that I did get the right one done but he was lying. I asked the receptionist for a copy of my X-​rays and saw that indeed they charged me for a deep filling when in fact they only did 2 small cavities. They charged me $ 300 for one and $ 98 for another. THIEVES! DONT GO TO THIS PLACE. YOULL REGRET IT

ZERO STARS! It has been 10 years since I went to this highly unethical quack of a so called dentist and I am still taking every chance I can get to spread the word to all unsuspecting patients out there who might be ripped off. I was told immediately upon looking in my mouth that I had «gingivitis» all over and several cavities that needed to be done, except I’ve already had all the teeth in my mouth done. I went in for a cleaning and he told me I would need a ton of additional work. I went out of the office laughing to myself and found another dentist. Just look at the reviews for the same dentist (Ray Partovy) office in Marina Del Rey.

I came to Dr. Partovy in need of a lot of dental work and he took great care of me! I am currently in recovery and after years of substance abuse I did a lot of damage to my teeth. I was even without a front top tooth. Having once been an attractive girl this particular dental crisis was imperative to rebuilding my self esteem. I told him my story and he was very kind and patient, promising that he would do whatever needed to be done to make it perfect so I could smile again. It is VERY difficult to make one front tooth match perfectly, but Dr. Partovy spent many extra hours and even made my tooth over several times with no extra charge. He never made me feel bad for wanting it changed and he worked his magic to make me that perfect tooth! I am now 17 months sober and have been smiling ever since. It is so important to find a dentist who will give you exactly what you want, without making you feel bad or charging you extra. Dr. Partovy made me feel safe and comfortable and he even worked with me on the prices, knowing I didnt have much. He is such a sweatheart and he is an excellent dentist! I would highly recommend him for all of your dental needs, trust me Ive had it all done by him from cosmetic whitening and veneers, to cavities, inlays, fillings and more and Im very happy with my teeth. People are always complimenting my teeth and my smile today thanks to Dr. Partovy!

I highly recommend Dr. Ray Partovy! His staff is very helpful and most importantly Dr. Partovy stands behind his work. He values relationships and will work to make his customers happy. That is extremely rare. I not only go there I have recommended friends as well. He is funny and has a great demeanor. He makes you feel comfortable and explains the process in full. Thank you once again to you and your team.

I am very pleased with Dr. Ray Partovy, and his staff! They call me to remind me about my appt. There office is so beautiful, and very clean., on one side you sit in your chair and you can see Ventura Blvd., and the homes in the mountains and people walking around its fun to people watch from all angles., on the other side of the office you sit in your chair and you see a shopping center with a beautiful fountain and coffee bean and stores and a beautiful caracal with horses for kids to go on, its so fun and entertaining to watch, you don’t get bored. Other offices you sit and you stare at a wall. Not fun at all. You want a good feeling, and exciting feeling when you go to a dentist office when you walk in and when you walk out. Dr. Partovy., gives that too you. Dr. Partovy is willing to work things out with you in

I cannot recommend Ray Partvoy enough as a dentist. I was all kinds of scared when I needed to get dental surgery for the first time, but Dr. Partvoy walked me though the procedure and made sure I was made to feel comfortable with it. This is not one of those scary dentists who will drill into you without drugs, Dr, Partvoy will make you look forward to going to the dentist.

While I agree with the other reviews that Dr. Partovy and his office are very nice, they didn’t perform the procedure that they advertised and I paid for. I went in for Zoom whitening, for which they had an advertised special. The doctor took a quick look at my teeth and then one of the office assistants took my $ 99.99. Once my mouth was pried open and some sort of gel was applied to my teeth they put the regular exam light over my mouth. Unable to speak, I gestured to the Zoom machine to my left and the nurse said that the stuff they put on my teeth only needed this light to be activated. 20 mins later they put another, brighter (still not Zoom) light on my teeth. Once it was done I asked the nurse why they hadn’t used the Zoom. I got an incoherent answer about what they did would make my teeth less sensitive. I left feeling angry with teeth barely whiter than when I entered. I decided to call a few minutes later to complain. The receptionist and the doctor reminded me that they said they could not guarantee results. To this I replied that I had paid for Zoom whitening but that they had performed some other procedure. The doctor didn’t argue with this and asked how I would like to resolve this. I decided to return to the office and get my money back. They never apologized for performing a procedure different than what was advertised, agreed to and paid for.
