I am someone who can feel anxious about mouth-related procedures due to an accident in the past. Dr. Weightman was stellar in performing my gum surgery in 3 locations in my mouth. It healed beautifully and in addition to her skill, Dr Weightman was warm and supportive. The office staff are all fantastic. I highly recommend them with whole-hearted enthusiasm. Lynne

Dr. Park provided exceptional periodontal care with genuine compassion and patience. His team provided exceptional care with genuine compassion and precision. Dr. Park helped me overcome long-standing dental fears and successfully guided me through both tooth extraction & implant processes. Thanks to his expertise, I was able to heal both physically and emotionally. Lucy consistently interacted with patience, understanding, and care—making every interaction feel valued and supported. Christina, Samantha, and Nadine offered comforting support through every procedure. I’m deeply grateful for their professionalism, empathy, and outstanding care. I Highly recommend!

I had a terrible tooth issue and a wonderful treatment team at Foundation Dental. I had seen my regular dentist due to pain on a Thursday, he gave me the name of an office in LaCanada but I could not get an appointment until Monday. Friday I woke up with a swollen cheek and excruciating pain. My regular dentist arranged for me to go to Foundation Dental that day and I cancelled my appointment at the other place. Everyone at Foundation Dental was so empathetic, kind and helpful from the check in desk, to Dr. Lim who gave me excellent care and a good amount of relief, to Lucy taking care of payment and explaining what came next. Unfortunately I had issues with the extra strength ibuprofen and I needed follow up care on Saturday, Dr. Lim called in a prescription for me to stop the nausea and switched my antibiotic to a stronger type. She also sped up my extraction that was performed by Dr. Lee who also displayed wonderful empathy and professionalism. I felt so well cared for, it made a horrible experience bearable. I had multiple visits after that to get an implant. Each time I visited the office I was greeted warmly and kept informed of procedures and payment responsibilities. I highly recommend Foundation Dental for any of your dental health needs.

Dr. Limansubroto and her staff made having a root canal painless and stressless. She has a gentle touch and is very skilled at what she does. I would highly recommend her for any endodontic need you may have. Her professionalism, skills and concern for her patients are truly outstanding!

I have a great dentist but for oral surgery and periodontal work I've tried a number of people over the years. Foundation Dental Specialist is above all the rest. They made me feel comfortable, they told me exactly what they were going to do, and the results are terrific. Very organized staff courteous and kind. They made me feel comfortable every step of the way. I recommend them to all my friends.
