"In today's healthcare arena, when you find an outstanding oral health provider, you have found a gold mine. Finding someone who has exquisite scientific and clinical skills combined with patient-centered care can be very difficult. It's not usual mixture in today's environment. When I met Dr. Jafari and his staff, I found what I needed but far more. With the need for root canal re-treatment in an emergency situation, I stumbled across a superb clinician whose scientific and clinical skills were one of the best I have encountered in my nearly 2 decades of leadership in clinical and medical research executive service. Yet Dr. Jafari's expertise went beyond that. Calling me every day to make sure I was "ok" was an experience I would never have expected in today's business model of healthcare and dentistry. He made sure I was involved in every step of every procedure. He explained every technical move and did so keeping me as patient calm yet fully informed. But most of all, the man cares. He cares about the person who is entrusted to him. His staff cares also. This is not your usual experience these days. While I hope not to need his services very often (or not at all), if I am in need - I know right where to stumble: again, and again, and again. So will you! Believe me, North Bethesda Endodontics is the place you need to go when you have to go with your needs!"
