For several consecutive years Image Orthodontics, has received the «golden award» – Best Bay Area Orthodontics

For several consecutive years Image Orthodontics, has received the «golden award» – Best Bay Area Orthodontics. Best of the Best Gold in San Francisco/Marin. The winner is determined through open voting on the website.

This year, there were dozens of orthodontic clinics among the contestants and it is worth noting that the competition was quite strict.

Image Orthodontics, founded by Dr. Yan Kalika, is known among parents of young patients for the friendliness and professionalism of its staff.

Patients are always welcomed with a smile and a sincere eagerness to assist.

«Dr. Kalika is amazing and absolutely the master of orthodontics who doesn’t shy away from difficult cases, for which he finds creative and innovative solutions. I had a complicated case with him as an adult after having unsuccessful orthodontic treatments as a teen, which he tackled as a total pro. I then brought both of my kids to Dr. Kalika for their orthodontic needs and we couldn’t have been happier. Plus, his office is a total state of the art and his staff is very kind, helpful, and welcoming» – shares Yuliya Magomedov, previous patient and the mother of current patients at the clinic.

The staff at Image Orthodontics is meticulously chosen, with a strong emphasis on maximum professionalism and client orientation.

«Great orthodontist office! Accidentally showed up for an appointment that I myself rescheduled to pick up my new set of Invisalign aligners. Turned out that my aligners had been delivered the day before. So instead of turning me away and making me wait for my scheduled appointment that is still a few weeks away, they were able to fit me in so I could pick up my new set of aligners early» – wrote Nick Siriban in his Google review.

Image Orthodontics boasts linguistic diversity. The multilingual office staff fluently speak: English, Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, Chinese and a little bit Turkish, Farsi, Korean, Polish, German, which allows them to answer all patients’ questions without a language barrier. At the same time, patients feel especially comfortable when addressed in their native language. This is important for both young patients and their parents.

Another feature noted by patients and parents who voted is the use of the most advanced and innovative technologies in treatment.

«Dr. Yan Kalika is an orthodontic tech genius. His office is a monument to the latest and greatest in technology. I’ve been a patient now twice – 20 years apart (never wore my retainer) so I’ve seen the office keep up with the times.
What you’re getting by being a patient in this office is a guarantee that you will be offered the most advanced choices along with the tried and true. The new Invisalign alternative is crystal clear and hardly noticeable. It was a breeze to get fitted and then work through the various stages of orthodonture.
The entire office is always friendly and willing to assist when issues arise. The staff is amazing and extremely knowledgeable.
Dr Kalika, you’re an amazing ally to have for dental issues. Thanks for treating me and my son!»
– writes Jonathan Hersonsky in his open Google review.

Today, three Image Orthodontics clinics operate in San Francisco – in Downtown, Pacific Heights, and South San Francisco, and in the near future, Dr. Yan Kalika plans to open another clinic in the Mission district.

Undoubtedly, the received award – Best Bay Area Orthodontics. Gold – is a testament to years of maintaining the highest level of orthodontic care. Unlike faster treatment programs, aligning teeth takes significantly more time. And the best test is the test of time.
