Del Dental Group

Just left Dental Heaven, If you are looking for a clean professional atmosphere well this is the place, not only are the girls infront helpful the back of the house including Mike are superior to say the least, this could all be because they are lead by a super cool and very knowledgeable Dentist Dr. Fathai she is hands down the most honest and super cool Dentist you will ever meet. So if your in the neighborhood for a good cleaning or a check up make sure you stop in too see these lovely people. I approve this message, Rhondahl Adams. Thanks guys for another great experience.

I have a great regular dentist but I was travelling and I ended up to this office. The front people seemed pleasant and was clean but there was clutter in the back and I waited and waited for the lady doctor to see me and after 25 minutes she gave me a diagnosis and was told I need a deep cleaning and I need an root onlay. Her bed side manners not the best and very rushed. Ok going back to my old dentist and me being really anal I checked the reward and plaques she has in the advertisement and realized hey any docotor can purchase these and these are marketing scams.
I went on line and couldn’t find the companies and after few research I realized these plaque bring traffic in and are not really awards!

Best Dental service EVER from Ariceli at the front desk to Sylvia, Mike and all of the Dentists. No drama, very professional and almost pain free every visit. They call to verify your appointment and then call after your appointment to be sure you’re doing well. I would give them 6 stars if it were available and I have recommended to all of my family and friends.

I usually avoid the dentist like the plague, but they did an amazing job at making me comfortable and dealing with my crazy anxiety. Very very good experience. I have finally found a permanent dental group. Thank guys! :)

I am very very scared of going to the dentist because as a child I always had bad experiences and trying to find a new one is even worse. Unfortunately my dentist is miles away so finding a new one was a challenge till I found Del Dental. I went in today for my second visit to get my teeth cleaning along with two filings. The staff was very friendly and attentive to my needs. The doctor was amazin, I did not feel any pain and he was making sure constatly along the way that I was okay. I can say that I have found a new home for my dental work. Booking an appointment was super easy and they have plently of parking in the back. Thank you Del Dental for making me smile perfectly!

I’m terrified when it comes down to going to the dentist and I know I’m not alone on this one, many people I know feel the same way. I’ve gone to different dentist through out my life and I can’t help feeling scared every time until now that I found Del Dental, I can actually say I’m looking forward to my next visit. I think it was obvious I was a little nervous on my first visit but the entire staff starting from the front desk all the way to the Dentist him self made me feel comfortable, their attitude was so amazing and caring that by the time I sat on «the chair» I had forgotten about my nerves and fear. The procedure was painless and fast, I just can’t believe I hesitated so much on going to see them, my teeth feel great. I’m definitely looking forward to going back to finish up all the other little issues with my teeth. Many thanks to the staff at Del Dental, see you guys soon!

These guys rock!!!
Dr. P, Sylvia, Michael & Araceli are awesome! Very friendly & patient. I felt totally comfortable with them. I received a crown, fillings & deep cleaning with no problems.
I’ve had traumatic experiences in the past which made going to the dentist unpleasant. Until now!
I highly recommend!

Dr Fattahi fixed my mom’s tooth that broke off just hours prior while standing inside of Bed Bath and Beyond. I called Dr Fattahi’s office in a panic for my mom, and she got her in 2 hours later. My mom is on vacation here and isn’t scheduled to go home for another week. Dr. Fattahi not only fixed her tooth long enough for the rest of her vacation, but fixed it permanently! My mom loved her and spoke very highly of her when she got back to my house. Can’t speak highly enough about Dr. Fattahi and her willingness to help. My mom arrived home way after closing hours so I’m pretty sure she stayed late to help my mom as well. Thank you all!

I too had a terrible experience with the hygienist. I’m pretty good at looking at a person to person issue /​analyzing wether a odd exchange is my issue, real or or perceived.
My terrible experience was 100 the fault of the hygienist. She went so far as to call me cheap for not buying into her up sell attempts.
The underlying problem is that the older woman hygienist of middle eastern decent has terrible people skills, is rude, has terrible dexterity-​rough, quick, hurried and cold.
I told the Dr and her staff my experience and the response was kind of a sorry to hear that. We can provide you someone else.
Just s hunch but I would bet that this hack, vitriolic hygienist is a family reactive and that is why she is on staff. Having met the Dr and knowing she is smart and very affable there can be no other reason this hygienist is allowed to interface with people.
After reading so many similar experience I feel lied to and will look into the dentist across the courtyard.
Dr. You know who I am. We’ve talked about this.
You need to realize our hygienist is costing you business and hurting your reputation. Family or no family. Your staff knee this but is afraid to admit it to patients.

This is my fourth appointment with Dr. Fattahi. I had a 10 o’clock appointment and arrived with my four-​year-​old daughter. They brought me in the room I was seen by the doctor she had let me know what I needed and asked the assistant to get the materials for my procedure. I then waited an additional 20 minutes for the doctor to come back into the room but she never returned it was at that 10:50. my toddler was getting restless she had poured water on the floor and it had been enough time for me to understand that the doctor was obviously running extremely late. Instead of letting me know that she was running late she made me wait without an option to leave and to reschedule for another time that would be more convenient for her to do work on me. I let her know that we were leaving and she instead of apologizing and letting me know she was available at that moment to start, she instead started to tell me that it is a medical facility and that I need to wait and be patient. If this office expects to have families to return I would urged them to communicate to patients upon arrival if there is meant to be a longer wait time until they are able to see them. Taking an hour after the set appointment time to start the process is unrealistic for an existing patient for the dentist to be be seen without proper understanding. Dr. Fattahi should not of argued and yelled at me and told me that she has had her own experiences at doctors and for me not to be upset about my wait time. Dr. Fattahi needs to learn how to communicate with her patients and grow some people skills and not make it about her but make it about her patients. I will not go back to see her I have an HMO and I will absolutely find another dentist for my family to see as I am not happy with her personality and her attitude towards me and my family.

I have had my front teeth bonded three times. Dr. Shahrzad did a fabulous job. the best I have had. The staff is professional and knowledgeable. I am returning for more work.

Love her and her staff… need to make an appointment. that is, I need to make an appointment. If you are looking for a family dentist — this is an awesome office and never hesitate to recommend.

This was my second office visit to Del Rey Dental. My first experience was very pleasant. I had exrays, and a teeth cleaning. Everything looked fine, they said I am very lucky to have such amazing teeth and that I should keep up with the basic cleaning every 6 months. My second visit was «terrible». The hygenist was very rough and mentioned that she wanted to measure my pockets, 1 to 5, 1 meaning excellent and 5 is the worst. So she started jabbing this poker in my gums and counting off 6,6,6,5,4,6,6,5,6,4,3,3,6,6 etc… I was thinking wow last time my gums were great and my long time dentist never counted over a 4 and I get my teeth cleaned every 6 months! So I knew something was up. So now she mentions to me I have gum disease and I need a deep cleaning, sorry folks deep cleaning is a bunch of BS, its for those who havent cleaned their teeth in years. She said she would get me an estimate, I said no thank you, just my regular teeth cleaning. So I sat there as water sprayed all over my face and endured the torture. When done with the teeth cleaning she said I should have an iodine wash for mouth to kill all the bacteria from all the holes she poked in my gums. Hey I didnt have holes in my gums until she put them there. No Thanks… Upon leaving they wanted me to sign a waiver that I denied a deep teeth cleaning,. I said No I am not signing anything and will not be returning. First time is nice but beware of your visits there after, they try to upsale you with things you dont need.
UPDATE:
To all, upon giving my review I received a phone call from Dr. Fattahi with her sincere apologies of my bad experience. She wanted more detail from me on what happened and assured me that her office does not try and do any upsales. I did speak with her about my first experience there and that it was good and that is why I returned to her office. Unfortunatly my second was not so good so she offered to me a free cleaning or anything she could do to rectify the situation. She said she values her customers and will follow up with the hygenist to see what happened. We discussed my first visit there and how pleasant it was, and maybe I would prefer the first hygenist that I had on my first visit for future teeth cleaning. She said she would note this in my chart for the next time. I really appreciate Dr. Fattahi’s sincerity and taking the time to give me a call. So I will return to her office for future cleaning. Thank You Dr. Fattahi!

I give Dr. Shahrzad Fattahi of Del Dental in Playa del Rey my highest rating. The staff is extremely pleasant and her dental offices are modern and well appointed. The dental services Dr. Fattahi renders are outstanding, very reasonably priced, and appropriate for the whole family. My children have had to wait occasionally, but I realize it’s because Dr. Fattahi gives personal attention to each patient. I had an emergency today and she fit me in and made my teeth better and more beautiful than before I had the emergency. Dr. Fattahi is compassionate, extraordinarily skillful, and WELL worth the occasional wait.

My first visit in March was very informative and helped me get an idea of the kind of work I need. I was told about the option of using Care Credit but explained that with my student loans kicking in, I wasn’t keen on taking out another loan and would call them when I was ready. What I love, is that they didn’t hound me on getting the appointments set up for my other work! (I love not being badgered!)
Yesterday I had an appointment for a regular cleaning. 5 stars on chair side manner, cleanliness and timeliness!
I’m in need for a deep cleaning on two quadrants and just can’t afford it at the moment but like I told Angela, I want to make sure the other teeth that don’t need work are taken care of too! She agreed with my logic.
I have to say, Angela was so kind and gentle with my cleaning. Especially with the sensitive areas of my mouth. I can’t thank her enough! Everyone in the front was wonderful and fun to chat with!
Thank you all for making my visits awesome!

I’ve been coming here for several years now and always had fantastic service. I am a notorious dental chicken. Before I started coming here, it had been a very long time since I had been in any dental office. Every person that works at this office has always treated me with professionalism and kindness.
I have had various work done here. Crowns, fillings and routine cleaning. Everything has been very well done.
As a sidenote, if you’re not having your teeth cleaned by Miriam, you’re missing out. It’s a funny thing to say, especially coming from somebody who’s very anxious about visiting the dentist, but she is really fantastic. Very competent, confident and your teeth leave the office feeling like new.

I am grateful to Dr. Fattahi and her entire staff for taking such good care of me today. I am wary of medical care in these united states and was reluctant to even make an appointment but I really needed a cleaning. I am so glad I did! The doctor is sweet and gentle and completely assuaged my fears. She found a cavity and was able to fill it right then. The whole staff is friendly and cheerful. My teeth look and feel wonderful! I recommend this office to everyone, especially those a little nervous of dentists.

After not going to a dentist for way too long, I made an appointment here after finding an exam/​cleaning/​x-​rays coupon for $ 49. I wasn’t expecting much, but so far I’ve been pleasantly surprised.
1– Friendly and helpful staff in a nice office setting.
2– They seem to have all of the most current equipment.
3– The prices seem fair enough, and a good credit plan is available.
4– They didn’t try to sell me on anything I knew I didn’t need.
5– Dr. Fattahi does great work & doesn’t take all day doing it. I’ve been in & out of there pretty quickly so far.

The dentist called me today to discuss my review. Her message was professional, concerned and polite.
In looking over my review, I stand by it. I harbor no ill will towards Dr. Fattahi (as she referred to herself on the message, not as Dr. Shahrzad) or her staff — ok, except maybe to the hygienist, can’t get over how she made me cry — but I did not appreciate the treatment I received at her office and I believe my review was forthright. This is not a situation where you can repair or replace an item, comp a meal, etc. and «fix it», and it’s not like I would ever feel comfortable going there again, so I personally don’t see a need for a discussion as it would not make me a repeat customer. An almost 3 hour exam, x-​rays and cleaning appointment was enough for me.
I think it is admirable that she called and was concerned. Unilocal is a forum for experiences and opinions. I welcome her reply to my review and I welcome readers to use their own judgment and experiences in assessing reviews. Many other people have reported having no problems with this dental office, but others have had issues. This may be the case with all businesses and hopefully the good and bad reviews point out areas for improvement, as well as already good areas.

*** Dr. Shahrzad has been my boy’s dentist for years. ***
He adores her. She’s done a great job w/​him from Day 1.
He actually looks forward to next visits. That’s funny to me.
*** Fattahi Shahrzad is the «Baby Tooth Whisperer»? ***
