He challenges me to become a better dentist by his words and actions.”

“I have known Dr Leo Arellano as a colleague and former classmate from UCSF since 1981. I have worked with him on and off for many years and am currently working with him one day a week. During these years I have observed his work, his continuing progress toward perfecting his skills and adding to them. He stays curious, flexible and very calm even through the vicissitudes of life. He is honorable and pays attention to detail. He gives almost painless anesthesia. His restorative work has such good integrity that it will outlast any 5 year guarantee. He researches and gets trained on state of the art dentistry including laser (LANAP) dentistry, pin-hole gum surgery, biomimetric dentistry, ozone therapy, and minimally invasive dentistry. I know many dentists yet I rely on him to work on my children, not to mention myself. I cannot recommend him enough. Dr Suzan Hahn”
