Fantastic experience: I have been coming here since before Doctor E. took it over - well, since the late 1980's, and my mother before that. Always great care - I love LOVE the staff especially my hygenists Margoand Rosie!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient for approximately three years. Dr. Eschevvy and staff are very professional. Had an extraction with bone grafting recently in preparation for dental implant. Procedure went well. Had usual discomfort during the procedure due to pressure to extract the tooth and took med prescribed for pain and antibiotic to prevent infection, but woke up the next morning without discomfort, pain, or swelling.
Fantastic experience: These guys are the best! I had major dental work and Drs. Meeker and Echeverry and the whole staff were patient, attentive, supportive and transparent for every step of the way. Highest recommendation possible!
Fantastic experience: Super friendly and professional. I've been going for almost 20 years and Dr E and the staff are like family.
Fantastic experience: As usual, Rosie was charming and professional and moved fast enough even to please my impatient wife of 58 years. Thank you.---jay
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this place and am so happy with their work.
Fantastic experience: Smart, compassionate, focused, communicative — you’re not going to find a better dentist in LA.
Fantastic experience: Every time I visit this office, I am impressed by the friendly and professional staff. I always receive great care and know I am in good hands! If you want excellent dental care, this is the practice to go to!
Fantastic experience: A visit to AE Dental Lounge is always a pleasant and educational experience for me. Everybody is competent and compassionate. They listen to your concerns and explain dental issues very well. They work efficiently. The front office crew are courteous and friendly.
Fantastic experience: I was unexpectedly delayed and was about 20 minutes late to my appointment. Everyone was very helpful to make sure that I could get all the treatment I had hoped for. As usual, the dental service was very good and the surroundings conducive to a relaxed experience. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Both Dr. Alejandro and Margo exceed expectations when it comes down to professionalism. They are both meticulous to their work and listen to any concern the patient raises, making you feel safe. What was different in my latest visit to AE Dental Lounge was the fact that after 9 years of no teeth problems, I asked Margo to examine my gums. She immediately checked the area I pointed her to, carefully investigating what the issue might be, and cleaned it to the best of her abilities. After she finished cleaning my teeth, she moved me to another room where Dr. Alejandro took over and immediately identified what the issue was, while further cleaning the gum area. Thankfully it was nothing, and Dr. Alejandro explained to me what was happening. He also examined the rest of my oral cavity, as part of routine oral screening, and he identified a tiny area (the size of a ball-pen), which he asked me to monitor. He explained to me what this might be and provided me with instructions. Despite the fact that this also nothing worrisome, it speaks volumes about how coordinated Margo and Dr. Alejandro are, paying attention to all types of concerns their patients bring up. I highly recommend their office for dental work and attention to their patient. As long as Margo and Dr. Alejandro remain in AE Dental Lounge, this will be my to-go dental clinic and I will strive to present them with the most interesting teeth issues to keep them on their toes.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Dr. Alejandro for more than 10 years, and the quality of care he consistently provides is truly exceptional. He takes the time to explain each procedure clearly and ensures that every visit is as comfortable as possible. The office environment is immaculate and well-organized, and his staff is courteous. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking outstanding dental treatment and a practitioner who genuinely prioritizes patient well-being.
Fantastic experience: Update November 2025 Margo did a deep cleaning on my Teeth and gums and it was absolutely magnificent. The results are palpable. She's such an expert: thank you so much, Margo! Professional efficient and kind as always. Awe inspiring! May 2025 Margo has outdone herself and I learned some new things about dental health, pH balance and more from Dr. Echeverry! Thanks bunches to the whole team! Ciao for now. Sybil November 2024 Once again, I received another tremendously fabulous dental cleaning for Margo at AE Dental Lounge and Dr. Echeverry checked my teeth and gums. Cheers! Sybil Thank you for another wonderful dental experience with Margo cleaning my teeth and my check-in with Dr. Meeker. My mouth feels fabulous! Ditto for yesterday, about three months after the last posting!! as usual, the entire staff of the dental office and Dr. Meeker are excellent professional, efficient, kind and generous of spirit. My mouth feels like a million dollars and all of my dental concerns are being addressed! September 2022 Yes, Dr. Meeker did a great artistic sculpting of my crown that fits perfectly. I will echo all of the above! Cheers!

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at AEDental Lounge. First I had an excellent teeth cleaning by Rosie and she also cleaned my mouth guard. Then I worked with Dr Echeverry and his staff to develop a plan to put in a new tooth (implant) where one was removed. All and all a good session. Katherine
Fantastic experience: Dr. E is the best. Very skillful, smart and has a wonderful bedside manner. I’m always relaxed and confident with his services.
Fantastic experience: Before consulting with Dr. Echeverry, I had visited several other dentist but did not achieve satisfactory outcomes despite significant expense. Dr. Echeverry truly listen as I described my situation and objectives. He consistently valued my opinions and addressed my concerns. When I explained previous obstacles and challenges related to my dental treatment, he assured me that mutual patience would help us overcome any difficulties encountered. Dr. Echeverry has demonstrated a genuine commitment to resolving my dental issues and achieving successful results

Fantastic experience: The level of skill, focus and care in this office — from start to finish — can’t be beat. It’s truly extraordinary to find this kind of attention paid to a patient, in this “day and age” (current climate). Dr. Echeverry really cares, and it shows. A+++

Fantastic experience: Best experience I've had with a dentist in a long time!
Fantastic experience: I couldn't ask for a better experience.
Fantastic experience: Friendly and helpful. I’ve been going there for years
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit with Rosie the hygienist and Dr Alejandro since Dr Meeker retired - and well, since January 2020, too. I appreciated my warm welcome back and the care everyone took with me and my teeth.
Fantastic experience: I've lived in a number of states and other countries over several decades, during which time I've had need of more than dozen dentists, and Dr. Echiverry stands apart as the most thorough and attentive, with particular attention to every detail. I wish I'd found him years ago.
Fantastic experience: Dr. E is gifted.
Fantastic experience: I am always a very nervous dental patient. Dr. Echeverry and his entire staff were so incredibly patient and gentle when I recently had to get two crowns. I cannot begin to express my thanks for their kindness and for the excellent care that I received.

Fantastic experience: Thanks Dr. E
Fantastic experience: Excellent! I haven’t been to the dentist since before the pandemic and I was dreading going. With as much anxiety as I had walking in, I walked out feeling cool, calm, and confident! The entire experience from beginning to end was pleasant and the staff was amazing. Dr. Echeverry was very knowledgeable, patient, gentle and understanding. I even went back a second time to have some significant work done, and I was nervous of course, but totally got through it with zero pain and was totally comfortable the entire time. Dr. Echeverry and his team are amazing and they have the latest technology which makes the overall experience even smoother. I highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: New hygienist Sabrina is great! Been a patient for over 15 years. Mad respect!
Fantastic experience: good dental office with conscientious professionals
Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough about Dr. Echeverry and his entire office. It had been a while since I went to the dentist and they were so welcoming and professional. Over the course of five appointments, I got a cleaning and several old fillings fixed, as well as my top wisdom teeth extracted. I was absolutely terrified for the latter, as I've never had a tooth pulled. But after building a rapport with Dr. E I knew I could trust him with this procedure. And it was EASY. I'm so relieved to have found a dentist who cares about me personally and who I trust implicitly. 10/10 recommend!
Fantastic experience: Loved it here. The Dr was super thorough and explain everything to me and super nice. Margo is the best hygienist I have ever had. The front desk was so nice and patient with me when making my appointment. During my appointment I was able to see my x-rays right in front of me as everything was explained. The Dr took more pictures during the exam as I explained the issues I was having with my teeth. Definitely would recommend to a friend.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Echeverry and team making going to the dentist as enjoyable of an experience as you can have. Fair prices, no upcharges, and no surprises. Amazing service and care.

Fantastic experience: Always professional and friendly
Negative experience: (Notice the provider's absolute refusal in response to inform you of known associated risks with dental x-rays; dismissively referring to any inquiry as only to "support supervised neglect".) In view of long-known, well-documented coincidence of head and neck cancers associated with so-called “routine” dental x-rays, I asked to be informed about the cumulative risks of this medical procedure which Dr. Echeverry compulsively orders. He refused outright to answer, which silence on his part necessarily indicates that he does not want patients to be informed of risks and, further, also necessarily, that he either knows of the dangers and will not disclose them, thus hiding them; or, alternatively, does not himself know of the dangers and is therefore ignorant and does not care in the least and just does what he is told without question regardless of impact on patients’ health; thereafter denying further access even for routine prophylaxis. So, he denies basic preventative care because he fails to extort compliance for a medical procedure with known risks to which he is willing to expose patients without informing them and denies informing even upon request. Yes, it’s indeed that bad. Do you want to entrust your health or that of your loved ones to a dentist who dismisses your reasonable request to be informed about risks of his proposed medical procedure and, indeed refuses to answer? Do you really want to open wide for this dentist? Do your own real research on what is euphemistically termed "low-dose ionizing radiation", dental or other, that strips electrons from living tissues. Wake up, people. (PS: This establishment is not Dr. Meeker's practice. Dr. Meeker respected patients' rights and never compelled this patient as regards any treatment and indeed always provided for prophylaxis without imposing as a contingency for care so-called "routine" x-rays.)
Thanks for your review. Check up x rays is part of our routine protocol to prevent major problems for all our patients. Under agreement some patients have them taken every two years, never/whenever the patient feels like it, it’s not allowed in the practice. We don’t support supervised neglect at any level. When patients had concerns about dental X-rays they been asked to talk to their radiologist/oncologist and they have been ok after clarifying the risk with their specialist.
We hope you find the practice that suits your needs.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Echeverry and the staff are amazing! Highly recommend them. Their work is excellent, and they're always friendly and efficient.
Fantastic experience: I'm 76.... after meditating I called A & E dental and asking them to record this awesome gratitude attitude day and please take a new 360 X-ray. I have it on CD before and after.!!! I discovered something else I heard when I was young and foolish. My mother said braces are expensive, boys don't need straight teeth, GIRLS need straight teeth. HAHAHA I remember thinking some day I will get all these crooked teeth pulled out. Then I can get store bought teeth. Story bought teeth are straight out of the box.! "People with crooked teeth are ugly." I heard adults make that comment enough for it to effect my ego STUFF IT don't recognizing the negative attitude that comes with it for more than 70 years when Dr meeker made them straight with out pulling them All out. This is the amazing awesome new and improved, gratitude attitude adventure day number 1672. Thank you
Fantastic experience: From the moment I walked in until the moment I walked out, everyone was absolutely professional and kind. All employees were very nice and attentive. Cheers.
Fantastic experience: Well, first of all, if it's a "Dental Lounge," I think all services should begin with a Martini, BUT I highly recommend AE Dental Lounge. I have two favorite hygienists, Margo and Margaret Ann. Both are professionals at their jobs and leave my teeth feeling sparkling clean. Dr. Echeverry replaced two fillings and was extremely accommodating regarding my terrible gag reflex. I made it through the procedure without a single gag. That's an A+++ in my book. Great team!
Fantastic experience: I have going there for 5 years now. I have always received kind, professional and excellent care from all the staff. I highly recommend them.
Fantastic experience: Very professional treatment. Very friendly people.
Fantastic experience: I always look forward to my appointment with Margaret Ann (Dental Hygienist) in Dr. Echeverry’s office. Best comprehensive teeth cleaning and education for prevention. Very pleasant dental visit for a healthy smile.
Fantastic experience: The staff is friendly. The hygenist is excellent. Dr. E is very calm and knowledgeable. Overall, a good experience.
Fantastic experience: I love AE Dental Lounge. Their dental hygienists are thorough. Dr. Echeverry is a great dentist. All the staff are very friendly.
Fantastic experience: AE is the most modern dental office I have ever visited. The entire staff are professionals, from the dentist to the dental hygienist to the technicians to the secretaries.
Fantastic experience: The Dr and the whole staff at this office are absolutely fantastic. This best I’ve ever received care from. They put my nerves at ease and are the consummate professionals.
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff, exceptional care
Fantastic experience: We are so happy to have found Dr. Echeverry and his great staff. Our old dentist went on holiday and left no referrals or reopening date on voice mail. It was a fortuitous thing because Dr. Echeverry was kind enough to squeeze my husband in to take care of an urgent need. I’ve since had some work done too and we couldn’t be happier. Dr. Echeverry (and his assistant) is meticulous, warm and uses modern technology I’ve not seen before. His staff is great too. He takes his time and explains everything. In addition to these things his office has cool art and is located in a pleasant office building with easy parking-we park on Marengo where there is always 2 hour parking available.
Fantastic experience: Dr. E. and his wonderful staff are the best! A real pleasure. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: This was my first visit to AE Dental Lounge, and I have to say they exceeded my expectations every step of the way. I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to dental work, as well as tooth sensitivity and TMJ which makes it difficult to sit for cleanings without discomfort. Dr. Echeverry and his staff were all incredibly kind, patient, and bent over backwards to make sure I was as comfortable and relaxed as possible. I was also impressed by the amount of time that Dr. Echeverry spent answering my questions and explaining my radiographs to me - I never felt rushed or like my questions were an inconvenience, which is a far cry from how I feel in most doctor's offices. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!
Fantastic experience: Nothing but the very best in care with personal attention. I consider the clinic part of the family. Even though I moved 350 miles a way I still return to AE Dental.
