Shadan Jabali, DDS

Sept 2011
My children's new health insurance plan has assigned a dentist by the name of Dr. Shadan Jabali, in Albany on Garfield Ave. Is anyone familiar with this dentist? If so, have you been happy with the services you have received? Beth
I have myself been seeing Dr. Jabali for about 8 years, and I highly recommend her practice. Although my kids go to a separate dentist from me (a pediatric dentist), I have seen lots of kids come into Dr. Jabali's office over the years, and I'm sure they receive great care. The office is NOT fancy -- if you need more of a dental spa environment, this is not your dentist -- but I feel like I get good quality of care, never get overcharged, etc. Dr. Jabali treats you like family! And the staff is great there, particularly Michelle who runs the front office. Alissa

Re: Delta Dentist Provider Recommendations
Hi, Shadan Jabali is my dentist; I have been going to her since our family was on DentiCal and she was one of the few providers who would accept that.
I have continued with Dr. Jabali now that we're on private insurance because I like how gentle she is, and that she provides excellent dentistry. My kid goes to her now, too, and loves her. I've noticed that she has many elderly clients, so she runs the spectrum in terms of patients' age. Her staff is bilingual Spanish/English, and Dr. Jabali speaks Persian and fluent English.
Dr. Jabali is close to Solano Ave. off of San Pablo. I would highly recommend her --Dr. Jabali Fan
We were in the same position, needing a Delta Care dentist for two (slightly older) children. We chose Dr. Shadan Jabali, and haven't looked back. She's been the kids' dentist for over 10 years, and has become my husband's dentist as well.
She's from India and is very smart. She's "no nonsense," but kind. My husband tells me that the dental patient areas are "no frills" (one room for two patients), but it's never bothered him. She knows when to make referrals to oral surgeons and the like, and her staff is on top of all paperwork.
Finally, Dr. Jabali has a much nicer waiting room than my own "fancy" dentist (I have better dental coverage than the rest of my family), and parking is never a problem on her residential Albany street... which is nevertheless close enough to San Pablo to not be off the beaten track.
WARNING: Dr. Jabali has limited hours these days... something like Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays (but don't quote me). So be patient... if you leave a message, her receptionist will get back to you.
