Dr. Doctor Nava Fathi, thank you for caring for my tooth. You made my dentist’s chair less scary. You and your assistant made me feel very comfortable throughout the procedure. You explained everything to me as you did the root canal. Your friendliness, patience, kindness and expertise made me calm and at ease. You are the best! Your office secretary was too! Following up the next day wondering how I was doing.I would highly recommend you. Very ethical! An all star from start to finish.

I had the best experience for such a bad situation with my tooth. I am someone who for reason doesn't get numb in my mouth easily, so I had a lot of anxiety about this, as I have had bad dentist in the past. Dr. Fathi, They took such good care of me, I would recommend Dr. Fathi in a heart beat to anyone.Leann Emery

I had an outstanding experience with Dr. Nava during my recent dental treatment. From the moment I walked into the office, I was greeted warmly by the staff, which immediately put me at ease. Dr. Nava’s professionalism and gentle approach made the entire process so much more comfortable than I expected.I had a tooth that needed attention, and Dr. Nava took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure, answer all my questions, and ensure I felt confident moving forward. During the treatment, I was impressed by Dr. Nava’s precision and expertise. It was clear that patient care is a top priority, and I truly appreciated the personalized attention I received!!Not only was the procedure virtually painless, but the results were fantastic! My tooth feels and looks great, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Nava to anyone in need of dental care. You’ll be in excellent hands!!

I recently had the privilege of being operated by Dr. Nava Fathi, and I cannot express enough how extraordinary my experience was. From the moment I walked into her office, I felt completely at ease, knowing I was in the hands of a true expert. She brought an anesthesiologist, Dr. Lee, who made sure that my procedure was pain and stress free.Dr. Fathi's kindness and compassion were evident in every interaction. She took the time to explain the procedure in detail, ensuring I was comfortable and well-informed every step of the way. Her gentle approach and reassuring demeanor made what could have been a stressful experience incredibly smooth.Her skills as an endodontist are truly second to none. The surgery was not only efficient but also painless, and the care she provided was nothing short of outstanding. I am confident that I was treated by the best of the best.Dr. Fathi’s dedication to her patients and her craft is evident in every aspect of her work. If you are looking for an endodontist who combines exceptional skill with genuine care, look no further than Dr. Nava Fathi. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of endodontic care.

Dr. Fathi and her team were absolutely wonderful! I was an unplanned appointment, and she took me into her busy schedule. Dr. Fathi was knowledgeable, kind, and explained procedures step by step. I had no pain later in the day. Root canals are not fun under any circumstances, but if I needed another one, I would definitely go to Dr. Fathi and Samaritan Endodontics!

Wow !!! What a great experience for having a retreat root canal. From the Front desk to Dr.Fathi everyone was wonderful. After the anesthesia i didn’t feel anything Dr. Fathi have the best hand.The procedure itself was painless and speedy, from walking in the door to the existing was less then 1.5 hours. Dr.Fathi I highly recommend her. She made a difficult procedure very tolerable.

Dr. Fathi is very compassionate and unusually skilled. I needed a root canal in a tooth that was also an anchor to a bridge. She examined my tooth and put me at ease that she'd be able to do the root canal while keeping the integrity of my bridge. After Dr. Fahti gave me the anesthetic I didn't feel anything. She talked to me throughout the procedure which kept me relaxed throughout the root canal. If I ever need another root canal, I'm definitely going back to Dr. Fahti.

Great staff, great communication. Oh and the doc is amazing also. I went in for a root canal and obviously not looking forward to it. The staff did their best to help me feel more comfortable and the confidence of the doc was huge to put my mind at ease. My procedure finished ahead of schedule and I had little discomfort the rest of the week. If you have to have a root canal, go here!

5 Stars Root Canal Magic!Dr. Fathi is an absolute miracle worker! I went in for a root canal on two teeth, dreading the whole experience. But let me tell you, there was nothing to dread!The support staff at the office (Amanda and Jennifer) was friendly and calming, which really helped ease my anxiety. Dr. FATHI was fantastic. She explained everything clearly beforehand and made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure.And the best part? No pain! Not a single twinge! It was honestly like a relaxing dental cleaning. I can't believe I'm saying this, but getting a root canal at Samaritan Endodontics was a breeze. And a follow up a call the next day to check if everything is OK!If you need an endodontist, look no further than Samaritan Endodontics. They are the ultimate professionals with a gentle touch and a talent for painless dentistry. Five stars all around!

I strongly recommend Dr. Fathi if you need a root canal. I came to her in tremendous pain, thinking I might have an issue with two teeth. She used a state of the art x-ray machine to look at both teeth and identify the issue. She then did a root canal on one of my back teeth with four roots. She was thorough and resolved the problem. She was very kind and made the experience as comfortable as possible. Her office staff is also very nice, and the office is clean and professional. Best possible experience you could have getting a root canal!

My son recently had to get some dental work done and we were referred to Dr. Nava Fathi from his pediatric dentist. From the first phone call, I could tell she and her office staff really cared for their patients. Dr. Fathi took the time to get to know me and my son all while collecting medical information and details. We were able to been seen within one day of calling. While arriving at the office we were greeted by the office staff and she was so bubbly and nice! Dr. Fathi performed the root canal and kept me updated with the progress. She made sure my son was comfortable and also made sure he was knowledgeable about what was happening. Dr. Fathi was positive, kind, and caring towards my son throughout! She even checked in with a follow up phone call that same evening when my son got home. Highly recommend Dr. Nava Fathi for your dental needs, especially for teenagers!

Cannot recommend Dr. Fathi any higher. I was referred by my dentist a number of years ago for a root canal and have been impressed with the office staff, their professionalism, the efficiency of the practice and most importantly, the quality of Dr. Fathi's work. She has always been informative on all options available when diagnosing the problem and very accommodative when I needed to change an appointment. I've seen her for 3 different issues over the years and if I need to in the future, I will gladly see her again.

Dr. Fathi and the office staff were all wonderful! Dr. Fathi was patient, thorough, and caring! After the Novocain wore off, I experienced slight pain in the tooth she worked on after the root canal was completed. After a week, I'm still unable to eat on that side, due to the tooth's tenderness. Hopefully, I'll be able to comfortably eat on that side very soon. Overall, I think Dr. Fathi did a great job, and I appreciate all she did for me.

I was in so much pain and was referred to Samaritan by my General Dentist this morning. Samaritan answered their phone and I was scheduled same day at 1:15pm. Five stars just for that. Came in as scheduled and Jennifer was so nice and I was glad to hear she would be helping out in my procedure. Went to the back a lil nervous and met Dr Fathi she was so outgoing and put me at ease instantly. I was kept informed at every step they did. It was a great experience considering I was having a root canal. I would not hesitate to refer my family and friends to Samaritan Endodontics. They were so awesome!! Thanks again Dr Fathi and Jennifer you guys are Endo rockstars!

I can’t say enough about what a positive experience I had at Dr. Fathi’s office. Dr. Fathi is so kind, caring and compassionate. I have a medical problem that requires the drilling to be done a certain way. I needed a root canal and could not find anyone willing to accommodate me. When I explained my situation to Dr. Fathi, she was so understanding and was open to following the procedure as I needed. The root canal went smoothly, painless, and no stress. Dr. Fathi is so kind and always has a smile on her face. I have the utmost confidence in her. Her office is super clean, state of the art, and actually is very beautiful as well. Her office staff is wonderful too. I highly recommend Dr. Fathi, and will be using her for all my future endodontic needs.

Dr Fathi is a gem (as are her office staff)! After a weekend with extreme tooth pain she fit me in at the end of the day on a Monday, she saved my tooth with an emergent root canal that was pain free and with a personality that completely puts you at ease. As a health care professional myself, I can assure you that she is professional, quick and very skilled at her craft. She prescribed the antibiotics and steroids with no need for pain medicine after the numbing wore off (although they were prescribed). Highly recommend.

From the moment I stepped into Dr. Fathi's Endodontics office, I was enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff exuded professionalism and kindness, setting the tone for a positive experience. Dr. Fathi herself is a true gem - genuine, personable, and radiating a confident energy that immediately put me at ease. Her expertise was evident as she performed my root canal with such skill that I found myself drifting off, almost forgetting I was in a dental chair. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Fathi to anyone in need of endodontic care. She is a true master of her craft, making a typically daunting procedure feel surprisingly painless and even pleasant."

The entire office belonging to Dr. Fathi helped me have an easy and smooth experience. I was greeted kindly, consulted in a friendly and informative manner, and the root canal was a breeze. This wasn't my first dental procedure unfortunately (with other endodontists) but today was by far the quickest and calmest. The office is beautiful and has the latest tools and equipment. Dr. Fathi and her assistant Jennifer made me feel very taken care of and I trusted them completely. She also was able to keep my original crown from splitting which took precise and experienced techniques. I hope I don't have to go back for a while, of course, but if I do I wouldn't mind too much! Thank you Samaritan Endodontics!

When I first visited my dentist years and years ago, the first thing out of my mouth was "I don't want a root canal". I did not need one at the time and for many years after that but eventually my tooth started to become very sensitive to heat which is one of the signs that a root canal might be needed. My dentist referred me to Dr. Fathi. Dr. Fathi and her staff were very friendly and Dr. Fathi explained that the tooth in question was one of the first teeth we get and therefore the oldest. She explained the procedure and assured me that the tooth would be healthy even after the procedure which was one of my main concerns. I agreed to the procedure and honestly wondered, "Why is everyone afraid of doing this?" The procedure was painless and I honestly had very little discomfort after. Dr. Fathi's staff checked up on me a few days after. I highly recommend Dr. Fathi to anyone who needs a root canal! She and her staff are truly amazing! Thank you Dr. Fathi!

I really appreciated Dr. Fathi’s friendliness and the time she spent explaining everything to me. Her treatment recommendation did not include her at all. She made a referral that turned out not to work out, so I called her back and she not only gave me another referral, but she call and talked with the periodontist to make sure they had a complete understanding of my situation. I felt like she went the extra step to make sure I got the attention I needed.

To start off, I am a dentist but I am also in need of a root canal. So who else to go to but the very best. My visit with Dr. Fathi was both very professional as well as very personal. She performed a root canal on me that was even difficult for my wife (also a dentist) to do and my wife loves doing root canals. I also have to add that even though I am also a dentist, and I know what is going on, I was super super nervous because in the past, it has always been my wife doing my dental work for me. But Dr. Fathi was so compassionate, personal and professional, she immediately put me at ease and the root canal was done without a hitch. Thank you, Dr. Fathi. 🙂

I went to Dr. Fathi last summer for root canal on a cracked tooth. She and her team could not have been nicer. Clearly it comes from the top, Dr. Fathi must be one of the nicest people on the planet. You feel like you’re going to an old friend, not a dentist. But she and her team do a fantastic job. She is ultra sensitive about you feeling any pain, so this was as painless an experience as I’ve ever had for any dental work.Yesterday, I had the same issue, but compounded by the tooth having gotten infected. I walked into her office in incredible pain that I had been experiencing for three or four days. She treated me with amazing compassion and my experience was even better than previously. She was able to do my root canal immediately and I walked out of the office (still numb) but without pain for the first time in weeks. Today, my jaw is very slightly sore, but I feel great. All her staff so obviously care for how you're feeling and takiing care of you, as well as doing an outstanding job at doing painfree dentalk work.I heartily recommend going to Dr. Fathi for any endodontic needs. I felt so welcome there I was kind of sorry to leave when the work was done.

Wow! It really was pretty easy after all. :-)I was always fearful of the day I would need a root canal. After submitting my info on their website Dr Fathi reached out that night with a phone call and decided she needed to see me the next day. She did a great job with minimal discomfort that turned out to be on the same level as a normal cavity filling. Super friendly staff and state of the art equipment. BTW, a Dentist that was her former student recommended her when I asked for a "world class Endo" referral.

I highly recommend Dr. Fauti!

I got referred to Samaritan Endodontics (Doctor Fathi) by my dentist after having really bad tooth ache and needing a root canal. I was nervous, from the minute I called speaking to the receptionist through to having the root canal I have never received such excellent service, they scheduled me right away and Dr Fathi called me the same day to find out what was happening. When I went in they were so kind and the root canal went very quickly. I highly recommend them.

Dr. Fathi and her staff are exceptional. Dr. Fathi's expertise, kindness and thoughtfulness comes thru at every interaction you might have at her practice (as well with how she interacts with her staff). After researching other options, she stood out as the best choice. Her team even makes the insurance process seamless and provides costs upfront without prompting. Consultation wise, Dr. Fathi is thorough in her evaluation process by performing holistic scans on your potentially compromised tooth. She is also very patient and non-judgmental about acknowledging that many people like myself have not always had the best dental experience/history. It was an ideal experience for reducing anxiety & building trust for first-timers like myself. I highly recommend her for top-notch root canal treatment. I hope I never have to get another root canal again, but if I do - I will without a doubt seek out Dr. Fathi's care!

I had an emergency situation over the weekend and Dr. Fathi was recommended to me. She went above and beyond to meet me on a weekend to access the situation and then quickly focused on making sure I was comfortable with meds/antibiotics. She scheduled the procedure for the next day. The procedure was seamless and she was amazing through the process sharing updates at every step and ensuring that I was comfortable. I would highly recommend Dr. Fathi and her staff!

What a staff! What a doctor! What an office! Who could make a root canal a pleasurable procedure? Dr Fathi and staff can! No words to describe the level of professionalism and care they give their patients. From booking my appointment to exiting after the procedure was completed every person I interacted with were personable and informative. This is the office and doctor you want to help you through a “dreaded “ procedure. It was “easy peasy” with Dr Fathi! This is your choice for endodontic surgery!

I was recommended by my regular dentist to see Dr. Fathi for a specialized root canal. Dr. Fathi was professional, knowledgeable, skillful and pleasant. The procedure was relatively painless. Afterwards, her office dealt with my insurance company, saving me a lot of time for paper work due to this office being out of my network. Her receptionist also made an appointment for me with my regular dentist to follow up. Dr. Fathi also called a day later to inquire how I felt. Overall, she has calmed my fear of the procedure. I was pleased to have gone there for treatment.

I received a list of recommendations of endodontics and I started researching from who was closest to my home. I read their website, clicked around, researched, and read through all the google reviews. I decided, okay this is the one that’ll give me a major root canal and do it well with care and kindness. I called and they were so transparent about everything which I really appreciated. I have great dental insurance but I would have to pay out of pocket after the procedure and then my insurance will reimburse me. I thought, nah they’re really good, let’s do this! They were so kind and accommodating especially after I arrived after a 12 hour shift as an RN at my hospital job. I politely asked and they were ok with my mom waiting in the waiting room for me! They chatted a lot during I appreciated because I was able to focus on the convo instead of what was going on or letting my anxious mind go insane. Dr. Fati mentioned the day of my procedure it was 3 dentists birthdays and she knows coz she not only works with them in the dental world but is friends with them! So after everything I asked of those friends who would you recommend to me to do my crown and as a new patient if general dentistry and she gave me a recommendation! The receptionist even called them for me and ask the recommendation to put me on a cancellation list too! I’m so grateful, the visit was such a pleasant experience! Dr. Fathi and her team as a whole are well worth it!!!! Also, the office was GORGEOUS and very clean!
Dr. Fathi performed a root canal procedure for me. She was kind, reassuring and demonstrated a high level of expertise!

This place was awesome. I usually have a ton of dental anxiety from experiences from childhood but they made sure I was comfortable and took care of me when I needed a root canal redone. I didn't feel a thing and was just listening to music on my ear buds the entire time without a care in the world.

If I find myself in need of another root canal, I am definitely returning to Dr. Fathi. Having undergone a root canal procedure elsewhere in the past, I can confidently say that the experience at Dr. Fathi's office was far superior. Dr. Fathi's attention to the sensitivity of my tooth at every stage of the procedure was exceptional. It instilled a deep sense of trust, making the entire process remarkably smooth and comfortable. I'm genuinely grateful for the outstanding care provided by Dr. Fathi and Jennifer.

I just returned from having a Root Canal with Dr Fathi and her staff. To say they are wonderful is an understatement. Not only is the office state of the art, absolutely spotless, and very aware of COVID, but the entire staff is wonderful. Dr. Fathi is incredible, she is professional, warm, funny and does the best injections. I honestly did not feel anything. The entire experience, was truly like warmth and care from the time you walk in the door until the time you are done. I could not ask for more. Please, if you ever need a root canal look no further, Dr. Fathi, Meredith and Jennifer and are spectacular.

I was referred to Dr. Fathi for intense pain in a tooth that already had a root canal. She got me in quickly, diagnosed the problem as an infection in the area. She prescribed medication, and got me a prompt appointment, and flawlessly completed the complex work of drilling through the existing crown, finding a canal that was missed addressing the missed canal and re-filling the crown. Throughout the process, I was kept comfortable, without pain anywhere near what one would expect for that kind of procedure. Dr. Fathi is kind, warm, friendly, empathetic, professional, and extremely proficient. Her office and assistants were very nice, refreshing and efficient. She is one of the best Endodontists I have ever worked with. I have seen a number of them in the past. If you are in need of any related work, she is worth driving from wherever you need to experience time with her.
