Seeking awesome periodontist
I'd like a second opinion on my periodontal issues and I'd like some recommendations. (I'd love to see someone in the East Bay, north of Berkeley if possible!)
My main concerns are that this person be very skilled and knowledgeable and also client-centered. I want someone who will be honest with me about what's needed and use a conservative approach if that might work.
I've been treated by highly recommended people in San Francisco but I'm hesitant to go back there now because I get the sense that profit is their main priority. I'm all for profit, but I need the vendor to balance profit with keeping the client's costs down if that would work too! Thanks, BPN...

I've seen Ryan Horn twice over the last 15 years, and I've always been comfortable with what he recommended. The second time, he didn't charge for part of the procedure because he felt it related to the first work and should not have recurred. I.e., maybe he should have done more the first time, but I was happy both times. Not north of Berkeley, unfortunately. 2999 Regent Street on the back side of Alta Bates. 984-6991. http://www.berkeleyperioimplants.com/
Dr. Horn on Regent Street in Berkeley did a great job for me and he was a very good communicator too.
I just had two implants with abutments and crowns placed with Dr. Saied Malboubi, who is located in Oakland at 3300 Webster (sorry not north of Berkeley). I was very happy with the level of care and expertise he and his staff provided. His rates were very fair compared to my former periodontist in SF and I was happy to find someone in the East Bay to work with. Call Veronica at 516-0027.
