Dr. Haleh Fazeli received two undergraduate degrees in Chemistry and Biology, from the University of California, Irvine. Being a native of Irvine, California, Dr. Fazeli moved to Baltimore to pursue her dream in obtaining her dental degree at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry in 2012 (Home to the first dental school in America!).
Upon graduation, she completed a General Practice Residency at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Philadelphia to further her skills in hospital dentistry. She then served as a Staff Dentist at multiple Veterans Affairs hospitals in Philadelphia, Minneapolis and Menlo Park, not only treating patients, but also teaching residents. In 2017, Dr. Fazeli became the Supervisory Dentist at the Veterans Affairs Hospital in Palo Alto. In 2021, Dr. Fazeli moved back to Orange County with her husband and 2 young children, where she now practices in Laguna Beach.
She also believes in the importance of continuous learning and proactively takes courses in order to stay up to date with the current technologies. Dr. Fazeli is an active member of the ADA, CDA and Orange County Dental Society.
Her caring and warm personality make her patients feel at ease under her care. While she enjoys the artistic side of dentistry, she feels that prevention and patient education are the keys to a healthy smile. Her love and passion for dentistry can be seen with each patient that she encounters.
When she is not in the office, you can find her volunteering, doing pilates or spending time with family and friends.
