Dr. Gogan has literally saved me from years of pain and dysfunction. About 4 years ago I contacted him via his website from Brazil as I was experiencing debilitating tooth pain at the time. He called me immediately and just hearing a trusted voice from thousands of miles away and having a response so quickly set me at peace. It has been a long journey since as I have had some serious dental work done all under his guidance. I now have a renewed smile and face thanks to his care. I could not thank him and Emilia enough for all of the kind and professional care I've received. They are truly lifesavers and I look forward to all of my visits. If I could give 10 stars I would!

I've been a patient of Dr. Gogan's for years. He's incredibly passionate about caring for his patients. Dr. Gogan is well known and highly respected by colleagues in the So Cal dental community. When I needed some very specialized dental care, he was able to direct me to the best specialist in town and then provided great follow up.

Before Dr. Gogan, I was a very nervous and reluctant patient. His kindness and calming style put me at ease. Now, I look forward to visiting with him during my procedures. My dental health has improved greatly under his excellent care.

I have known Tim and his wife Margot for many years but it wasn't until my previous dentist retired that I started coming to Tim as a client. It's been about ten years now of excellent service and always with an infectious, upbeat attitude. I also love the fact that while he is working on my teeth he is running through movies he's seen, current events, family stories, ideas for themed parties, ETC. I'm done before I know it and I leave inspired. I recommended Tim Gogan, DDS, unreservedly.

Dr. Gogan is awesome! The office was very flexible with my tough schedule and he got me in before work. I hadn't been to the dentist in over 3 years and he found some early cavities in the back. We also sealed up some exposed areas. He had many suggestions for me about keeping my teeth healthy and the treatment was relatively painless. I was able to go back to work shortly after. His assistant Emilia was excellent too during the treatment. Dr. Gogan is very personable and friendly and he made me comfortable during the whole session. The office has an amazing view of the hollywood sign and the hills. And the pricing was very reasonable for the amount of work done. I will definitely return for my future sessions. I definitely recommend him for anybody in the area looking.
