I cannot say enough amazing things about Dr. Sheila Dobee and her entire team in Fremont. I have…read morebeen a patient of Dr. Dobee's for over 15 years, and over that time I have developed not only trust in her as my dentist, but a genuine appreciation for who she is as a person. From the very beginning, we instantly connected through heartfelt conversations, and one thing I love most is that after all these years she has remained exactly the same -- kind, compassionate, genuine, and someone who truly cares about her patients as people. Dr. Dobee has always been known for thinking outside the box, using the best materials and treatment options, and putting her patients first. So when my boyfriend unexpectedly fractured his front tooth around 10 PM on April 24th, I immediately knew who to call. Even knowing we would likely be cash paying rather than using insurance, I had complete confidence that she would help us navigate the situation and find the best possible solution. I texted Dr. Dobee and sent photos despite it being late on a Friday night, and she responded right away. Shortly after, Dinesh, the office manager, contacted us and scheduled my boyfriend to be seen first thing Saturday morning. From the moment we walked in, every person treated us like family. We were seen by Dr. Hawari, who I have also been a patient of and have always known for his incredible restorative dental abilities and attention to detail. He immediately came across as compassionate and reassuring and focused on helping us move forward rather than sitting in guilt and stress over the situation. He took X-rays, examined the tooth carefully, consulted with us, and explained our options every step of the way. He initially performed a composite build-up on the front tooth and honestly it looked incredible -- you would never have known there had been an accident. What stood out most was his honesty and attention to detail. Rather than simply continuing treatment, he noticed there could potentially be a root fracture and immediately shifted directions because he wanted to make sure the treatment plan was right. He coordinated care with Dr. Frankie, who specializes in same-day implants. When we met Dr. Frankie, one of the first things that stood out was how down-to-earth, understanding, and empathetic he was. He immediately made my boyfriend feel comfortable during what was already a stressful situation. One thing he said really stayed with me: he would never do anything to my boyfriend that he wouldn't do for his own mother or family. I found that incredibly commendable because it showed genuine care and integrity. It truly felt like everyone involved was thinking outside the box and trying to determine what was best for my boyfriend and, most importantly, trying to save his natural tooth if possible. After further evaluation, Dr. Frankie consulted with Dr. AC. What happened next honestly amazed us. Dr. AC had already completed a full day but still stayed late unexpectedly, reviewed the imaging, discussed options with the team, and continued his evening until almost 10 PM helping my boyfriend. He and his assistant prepared the room, performed a successful root canal, and everyone worked together to create the best possible treatment plan. We later went to Micro Dental Lab in Livermore for color matching, and even there we experienced the same kindness. As soon as we mentioned Dr. Dobee's name they immediately knew who she was. We were treated with such warmth and even given a tour of the facility near the end of their shift, which was incredibly thoughtful. What stood out most throughout this entire experience is that everyone associated with Dr. Dobee feels like a real person first and not just a doctor. My boyfriend's insurance is not great and we were paying cash, but not once did we feel treated differently. This could have been a devastating experience considering it involved a front tooth and such an important cosmetic area, but they made the process smooth, reassuring, and manageable. Thank you Dr. Dobee, Dinesh, Dr. Hawari, Dr. Frankie, Dr. AC, and the entire team for your compassion, professionalism, and exceptional care. My boyfriend already says this will now be his dental office too, and I completely understand why. I cannot recommend them enough.

I was scared because I was in deep pain and needed urgent care and I was very worried about them getting me in. I got there by 11 am and they immediately helped me seeing that i was in massive pain. The front admins were so kind. Dr. Dobee immediately came to help as well as her other dentist person. He was amazing. He just was so kind. Their products were top notch for xrays, and very fast. I could see all the issues. Dr. Dobee immediately scheduled me to do my complicated tooth surgery. The was really good at making sure i wasnt in pain. She was positive energy. And she was there on a longer timeframe to take care if the action since it was complex. I am getting better today already. Yes, its expensive and they helped me get funding for the update. The finance person was very kind. I really want to thank that entire staff...best doctors and staff Ive used at any dentistry. Thank you!!!

I thought it was just hormonal changes so waited, but 14 weeks later still experienced sensitivity and recession. Bay Smile Dental got me in to be evaluated quickly and they were super thorough and gentle. Every time I go to the dentist apparently I need some kind of new filling or fix for a filling, or deep cleaning, you know the "drill", haha. Not here though, thorough x rays and no cavities. Pleasantly surprised. I also had my baby with me because my husband wouldn't get off work in time, he got held over by a little bit, Bay Smile offered to "watch" him while getting stuff done and came up with a safe plan to keep him away from the x rays. Thankfully my husband showed up in time to bring baby home. I was super appreciative of them working together with us for a solution anyway, and they were so nice everyone saying hi to baby!

When I moved to Newark, I selected this dental office purely out of convenience and proximity to my…read morehome. At my first appointment, I was told that I had numerous cavities. Despite having gone to my previous dentist in Emeryville three months prior with no cavities. This should've been the first red flag, but I got the fillings anyway. The front desk workers kept getting my information confused with my husbands. Very unorganized and chaotic. Near the end of the year, I got another cleaning and they recommend I get more fillings and tried to get me to do them the same day. When I said I wasn't interested one of the dentist kept saying it's good to get them done before the end of the year since your insurance covers it and as I was getting ready to leave, she mentioned and reminded me again to get those fillings filled before the end of the year for insurance. Fast forward to six months later, I selected a new dentist and did my X-rays and what not. No cavities that required fillings. One small cavity that needs to be monitored but not big enough for a filling. I'd be weary about their suggestions because it seems like they're trying to get money out of the patient and insurance companies.

I've been recommending people to them for ages. Today however was an extraordinarily above and beyond experience. I wear a partial for a front tooth I lost years ago. This morning (Thursday) it broke! Now normally wandering around without a front tooth would be embarrassing, but in my case extra bad as I have a job interview on Monday!! I called them a bit frantic and 20 minutes later was in the chair getting new impressions done. Meanwhile they were on the phone with the lab getting me set up for a rush repair to my partial. Amazingly enough, I should see my tooth again late today. If you don't go see Dr. Tan and her awesome team, your cheating yourself out of dental greatness!

They kept asking if my tooth hurt and I kept telling them no, they also showed me the black part you could see and told me that was from infection. That doctors office tried to get me to get a major extraction done and leave me without a tooth. I decided to get a second opinion, that's when I came to Dr. Santos. He looked at my tooth and explained that the black was actually the metal filling and he didn't see infection and most likely what the other dentist saw was scar tissue. He recommended if I wanted to get the top changed so the black didn't show, that was an option but he wouldn't recommend it. He literally saved me from having a huge procedure and not having a tooth

The equipment is modern, and the quality of care has been every bit as good as what I've received from traditional dental offices over many years. I would recommend this practice without hesitation to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and trustworthy dental care. Their commitment to serving the veteran community is truly appreciated.

The office looked brand new, everything was clean and modern, and all the staff were incredibly polite, welcoming, and professional throughout the entire visit, from taking X-rays to screenings and photos. What stood out to me the most was how thorough, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented Dr. Hoang was. She took her time examining my teeth, pointing out potential issues, and explaining what we could do to prevent cavities while also addressing the minor ones that were already there. I really appreciated that she focused on prevention rather than just treating problems as they came up. Another thing I noticed was how she took the time to guide her assistant through the process, explaining not just what she was doing but why she was doing it. As a patient, being able to hear those explanations helped me better understand my own dental health and what to expect throughout the appointment. Dr. Hoang was also incredibly gentle and considerate. She always gave me a heads-up before doing anything that might cause discomfort, which made the entire experience much more comfortable and reassuring. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better first visit. You can really tell that Dr. Hoang cares about her patients, takes pride in her work, and wants everyone to understand how to take better care of their teeth. I highly recommend her and her team to anyone looking for a dentist who is thorough, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about their patients!
