Definitely the BEST dentist I have ever had! A friend referred me to Dr. Kohani. In the past I have not had good experiences with other dentists. As soon as I met Dr. Kohani, I felt very comfortable. He is a very knowledgeable and caring doctor and his staff is amazing. I am currently doing Invisalign with Dr. Kohani. Every time I go to his office it is a very pleasant experience. Dr. Kohani and his staff are always so warm and welcoming. If you are looking for a good, caring, and honest dentist I recommend Dr. Kohani! A. Rodriquez

In 2011, Dr. Kohani embarked on a transformative humanitarian mission to Africa, where he met Jackie and her family and learned about her severe cleft lip and palate. Deeply moved by her story and the challenges her family faced, Dr. Kohani felt compelled to create a brighter future for them. After a heartfelt conversation with Jackie’s parents, where they expressed their hopes for a brighter future for their daughter, Dr. Kohani made the extraordinary decision to bring Jackie and her mother to the United States for life-changing treatment.
For nearly a year, Jackie and her mother became part of Dr. Kohani’s family, embraced with unconditional love and care during this pivotal chapter in their lives. In collaboration with the Fresh Start nonprofit organization, Jackie underwent several intricate surgeries to correct her condition. Throughout this journey, her parents provided steadfast support—her mother standing by her side, and her father staying closely connected from afar. Together, they witnessed the transformation they had long dreamed of for their daughter.
When Jackie and her mother returned home to Africa, she carried with her not only a radiant smile but also renewed confidence. Dr. Kohani’s dedication didn’t end there; he continues to support Jackie’s family, ensuring their financial stability and funding her brother’s college education to help secure a promising future for them all.
Today, Jackie thrives, her story shining as a powerful testament to the life-changing impact of Dr. Kohani’s compassion, her parents’ faith and trust, and the power of collaboration across the continents. Her bright smile reflects the collective effort of those who believed in her potential to overcome and flourish.
