Hostetler Clifford R DDS

Dental offices often become familiar landmarks in neighborhoods where sidewalks hum with daily routines. Hostetler Clifford R DDS fits neatly into that rhythm along Lakewood Boulevard, where the low-slung storefronts of Downey blend into the larger grid of Los Angeles County. The practice occupies a spot at 10501 Lakewood Blvd A, a short walk from the steady traffic of Firestone Boulevard and the quiet residential streets beyond.

Downey’s mix of mid-century commercial buildings and newer developments gives the area a practical, lived-in feel. This particular stretch of Lakewood is lined with small businesses—dentists, optometrists, and insurance agencies—that serve the immediate needs of the community. Routine cleanings, fillings, and exams are the kind of services that keep a practice like this one anchored in the neighborhood, though they also handle more involved procedures such as crowns, bridges, and extractions when necessary.

Directions to the office can be pulled up on a map, but most locals know the corner well enough to point you there without one. If you need to confirm hours or schedule an appointment, the number to call is (562) 862-2341. After years of passing by, it’s easy to forget how many people rely on a place like this until you need it yourself.
