    I had no idea between a Dentist and an Endodontic Dr. I was referred to Dr. Brown by Dr. Claude Sidi, DMD- who actually walked me down to his office- I was able to make a next day appointment for a dreaded root canal. Front desk = A+! Dr. Brown talked with me and comforted me and got me really numb so I had no feeling- AMEN!! His awesome dental assistant was so on point- when he wanted something, she had it for him!!! I paid $2300. out of my savings --instead of going to the dental school to get it done- IT WAS WORTH IT!!! no feeling and he was done in about 90 minutes, and DR. Brown actually tells you what progress he's making (1/3 done-- 2/3 done--- etc) . I Wish i had some kind of dental insurance to cover it- BUT IT WAS WORTH NOT BEING IN PAIN!!!! Thank you!!!!!

    4 days after the root canal, I believe it went great! I had met with Dr. Brown once in the past about this very sensitive tooth. I was impressed by his wait-and-see approach. He listens very carefully to the patient. More recently, when pain levels reached emergency status, I still MIGHT have been able to weasel out of the root canal. But he took the time to advise me that things probably would not improve without the procedure. I trusted this assessment and felt confident in the decision. As for the procedure, what people say about Dr Brown and staff is no exaggeration. A root canal is extreme dentistry, for the patient and for the dentist. Everyone in his practice understands that very well. I can't imagine how it would have been easier.

    The procedure is quite involved and obviously requires a high degree of expertise, which Dr Brown has.

    Best Endodontist Ever you say!? Why yes! Yes I do! Dr. Nesari and His team are the best of the…read morebest! When you walk in here feeling confused and worried you leave feeling like your family! From the initial meeting with Evelyn up front where she makes things so easy for you to understand to the time you go back , get your scan done and x-rays by either Liz, Desiree or Linda, to then meeting with Dr. Nesari everything is handled seamlessly! This is truly the A-Team of dentistry! If I ever need to have a root canal or even want a second opinion this is definitely where I will come! I recommend this establishment 100%!

    I rarely write reviews, but Dr. Nesari absolutely deserves one. After my dentist removed a cavity…read morethat ended up way too close to the root, I was in serious pain and needed a root canal - my second one. His earliest appointment was two weeks out, but he actually rearranged his schedule and brought me in the same week. Who does that anymore?! From the moment you walk in, the front desk greets you with a genuine smile, and everyone in the office takes the time to explain what's going on so you never feel rushed or confused. Dr. Nesari himself is incredibly gentle (a blessing when someone is working inside your tooth!), and he's funny in that calm, reassuring way that instantly lowers your stress level. If you're looking for an endodontist in the Mission District who's skilled, caring, and makes a root canal feel... dare I say... not scary at all, you're in great hands here. Amazing doctor, amazing staff. Highly recommend!

    I am genuinely grateful for this practice. I needed a root canal and was terrified because I didn't…read moreknow what to expect. When I called to schedule a consultation, I didn't have much discomfort, just a sense that something under my crown didn't feel right. I was hoping to delay the procedure for as long as possible, but the receptionist encouraged me to come in sooner. Within a couple of days after my initial call, what started as intermittent nagging sensitivity turned into throbbing pain, making it hard for me to concentrate at work. I was relieved that the receptionist had me come in when she did. I met with Dr. Wong, who eased my anxiety. He was able to squeeze me in the following day for the procedure after my consultation. The nurses and staff were excellent; they knew what they were doing and were very professional. Dr. Wong explained everything to me, and the procedure, dare I say, was easy? They allowed me to choose a movie to watch as a distraction, and honestly, I didn't care what was playing. I thought I'd be wincing and clutching the side of my seat, but I truly didn't feel any pain at all--only vibration and pressure. I was able to enjoy nearly an entire movie. The entire event took about 1.5 hours. I am still recovering and have been told that any soreness may take a bit to subside, but it's nothing compared to the pain I experienced before. I don't wish a root canal on anyone, but if you have to get one, this is the place to go. They stayed late for me and looked tired when they were finished. I wanted to hug them before I left because I was so thankful.

    Near the end of my root canal, Dr. Stephanie Lee exclaimed, "we preserved the anatomy of the tooth!…read moreTooth anatomy is so beautiful." Beautiful? I looked to Betty, the dental assistant to whom I had clung during the procedure as if she'd looked after me since a time before teeth sprung up through my gums. Betty smiled warmly and asked for the umpteenth time, "how are you doing?" I attempted a half-mouthed smile. I had heard my teeth called many things, but never beautiful. You see, bad teeth were the unfortunate inheritance granted me by my father. "Bad," such an ugly word--full of the shame of childhood. No matter how I brushed, and flossed, and scrubbed, and rinsed, and brushed again, the fault always seemed to add up to my own poor performance. That's what old, white haired, men seemed to think anyway. And, old, white haired men have seldom learned to keep their own pearly white opinions behind closed lips. This new word, "beautiful," brushed my numb cheek with a gentleness and an insight so different from those unkempt gentlemen. It eased away a layer of shame and lifted a pound or two of anxiety. Dr. Lee and Betty had no malice in their prescription for post-surgical care. They had to judgement for the tears I had cried as they leaned back the chair or the squeaking noise that had escaped me during the injections. They thought my tooth was beautiful--even as it required drills and paste--beautiful. I suppose the world shifts one tooth at a time.
