out of Read Reviews for Dr. Gary Wirtschafter
I saw the woman before me flinch in pain several times before she made him stop. That worried me.
He replaced a crown for me and repeatedly hurt me really bad while drilling. I had never experienced so much pain over and over again. I consider myself a tough man but I wept from pain in that chair. He was not very apologetic and did not seem to know how to medicate me properly. I would recommend taking care pf your dental problems yourself before going to this guy

I first met Dr. W about a year ago when I first moved to LA. I went to him because he is close to my home. I got so lucky to have gone there! He cleaned my teeth and filled a cavity for me-my first one ever- and I was really freaked out. I also knew my wisdom tooth was growing in. He told me not to worry about it yet, and he will check up on it next time since it wasn't bothering me. I am very afraid of the dentist and he made everything so easy. He is gentle and kind, he amuses all of my crazy fears and makes sure I don't feel even a tiny bit uncomfortable, scared, or in pain. 8 months later I went back for a cleaning and told him my wisdom tooth has been bothering me a lot and I wanted to take it out. He could tell it would be easy and said he could do it that day. This was great because it gave me less time to stress over it since it was immediate.he is so so so good when you are a big baby like me. He eased my fears and made sure I was ok every step of the way. He is calm and good at what he does. It was quick and so much easier than I thought. Unfortunately for me, I did get dry socket-the worst pain i have ever felt-this sometimes happens with bottom wisdom teeth. once again, he came to the rescue. I will ALWAYS go here!!!

Terrific dentist!!! He never performs any work that is not necessary and makes you feel very comfortable with the process. I have had both fillings and crowns and I am very happy with them.

I have been going to Dr. Wirtschafter for several years now and he really knows what he's doing. He has newer instruments which I can really see helps when I go in for a cleaning. He's also knowledgeable about current dental techniques and preventative medicine. I came to him with some problems with bleeding gums and he made some recommendations to switch to a sonic toothbrush and some medication in some problem areas. Those few things ended up making a big difference. I had a great experience overall.
