Los Alamitos dentist Dr Seza Barsamian and her staff hosted their 5th annual Veteran’s Day Event on Thursday Nov. 8 at their location 4022 Katella Ave., Suite 206 in the city of Los Alamitos.
The office of Dr. Seza Barsamian performed free comprehensive dental exam, X-rays and a regular dental cleaning to retired veterans from Los Alamitos, Seal Beach, Cypress, and Long Beach area.
The entire office staff, including Dawn, Vanessa, Jovy and their hygienist Christine worked from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Nov. 8 to accommodate all veterans who made appointments. This year they were able to accommodate more than 25 veterans, many of whom had not had their teeth checked in years.
Some were returning veterans from previous years, while others were regular patients in the office.
“We had one WWII veteran and a few Vietnam war veteran,” she said, adding that “they are the best people you could ever meet, we feel very blessed to be able to do this and we hope we could continue to do it for years to come.”
Barsamian’s office has been doing this since 2014 and has been able to accommodate around 100 veterans.
Mayor Troy Edgar recently presented her a recognition Certificate for her continued support of Veterans and Dr. Barsamian has been recently recognized by Los Alamitos City Council members.
She also supports local public schools and foundations. She volunteers her time once or twice a year to serve local charities by performing free dentistry for kids and adults
