All i have to say is that I'm so very grateful with Dr Fateh for the great Hollywood smile he put on my face after the surgery performed due to a very gummy smile since was child trauma because i wasn't comfortable smiling. This transformation has changed my life, self-esteem and confidently smiling is huge for me so I'm so very happy, glad and lucky i found Dr Fateh. I was referred to him by my friend perio Dr Zarkesh in San Jose, Ca. Actually where the surgery was done. Overall went well and short time, painless and i was in great hands, i felt it since the beginning i met Dr F. He's a great person/ Dr and ensures Pt's comfort throughout the procedure. I strongly recommend him for any procedure he offers in his practice, I've been looking forward to one day without having a major surgery done and of course $$$$$, i had hope this kind of procedure was invented one day and change my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you a million. I'm a super happy patient. ;)

My experience with SF Bay Periodontics was very good. I only saw Dr Fateh, so I can only speak for him. Dr. Fateh was exceptionally nice, explained everything, called me the next day to see how I was doing, and provided his personal number in case I needed anything. I had gum grafts performed, and Dr. Fateh's surgical touch was very good. His application of the Novocaine was amazing, I felt minimal amount of pain. Dr. Fateh was very understanding, always came in with a good attitude, he is also a very calming person. Dr. Fateh always was very professional, but not in the way where he seems cold or all business. If I ever need gum grafts again (which I really hope I don't) I will only go back to Dr. Fateh.

If you need a periodontist, look no further than Dr. Speert and Dr. Fateh. They are consummate professionals who give top notch care. The hygienists and other staff at the office are also first rate.

Dr. Fateh was extremely kind and compassionate in listening to my concerns. The people at the front desk were also very kind and helpful. The only drawback is that there's a huge electric transformer right outside the window of treatment room.

I've seen Dr. Speert over the las few years and he's a consummate professional. I'v had a deep cleaning, a professionally difficult tooth implant that my General dentist confirmed, and lastly periodontal gum surgery. Dr. Speert listens and has been most accommodating as I have issues and fears with dental work from past trauma. I don't give out 5 stars lightly but he certainly deserves such.

If you have ever had a bad experience at a dentist, come here. You will find a comfortable, funny, relaxing environment, with quick, professional, attentive service. I had an implant installed, with only minor discomfort, which passed within 24-hours. Rock solid!

Ardi Fateh is a gifted surgeon with a great sense of humor. Didn't take me long before I realized I was in good hands. He not only gave the smile I always desired but also saved me 20 grand that I had to spend on jaw surgeries. Before I saw him, I was always bothered by my smile and a lot of gum I showed when smiled. He got rid of my extra gums and also lowered my lip and gave me a thicker lip which I love and brag about now. I was in and out in an hour with no pain and on top of that I experienced the most entertaining dental appointment with all the jokes he would crack during the procedure. He is kind, knowledgeable with great staff. If you have gum problems, go see him. I promise you won't regret it. Dr. Ardi, if you are reading this, thank you again!

My husband has had 2 implants placed by Dr Speert. Both implants turned out well with no complications. These implants feel just like "normal teeth". Since Dr Speert has now cut back his days, Dr Fateh has seen my husband for other perio issues. Dr Fateh was great in explaining all the treatment options. Marisol will give you an accurate breakdown of what your insurance will cover and what you will owe. If I ever need an implant, I would totally trust Dr Speert or Dr Fateh.

Going to the orthodontist is not something I or most people relish. In fact, I am nervous going to any kind of dentist. And recently, I have been seeing more of Dr. Fateh than I want to. Gum surgery, implants, extractions...he has done it all for me. Including a 6 hour operation this past week. Having said all that (how much I loathe going to the dentist), I highly recommend Dr. Fateh. He is technically spectacular, honestly, you should see these tight and tiny stitches (about 250)...and he swears he never took needlepoint ;) Dr. Fateh also has a professional and relaxed demeanor, and explains things in plain English. And, just as important to me, he doesn't seem to mind repeating himself if I can't remember due to the pain meds or stress. There are some new technologies on the office management front that would assist patients, and protect privacy more such as an electronic EHR/patient portal. But I am super picky as I work in the field. The office staff and dental assistants are wonderful.

I was recently seen by Dr. Fateh for gum recession and I must say that he and his staff made my visit very pleasant. I usually have anxiety when going to the dentist, but everyone at the office made me feel at ease. In the past, I didn't fully smile, always tried to hide my receded gums and I couldn't eat certain foods because my teeth were extremely sensitive. Dr. Fateh was very competent and thorough. He explained the entire gum grafting process to me, took the time to answer all of my questions, was very patient and made me feel comfortable throughout my visit. Now I am gaining back my confidence and can eat and drink the things that I've been missing out on. I am very satisfied with the treatment that I received and would highly recommend this periodontist.

Dr. Fateh is awesome! If you need a Periodontist, you needn't look any further!

Dr. Fateh explained the surgical procedure in terms I could understand and showed me the CT scan photos so that I could see the condition of my tooth. He is highly skilled and kind. His charming manner helped me to feel at ease and he made sure the procedure was painless. I have full confidence in him with the next phase of my treatment. All the staff are friendly and efficient , especially Ellie.

While I cannot yet refer the new doctor in the office; I have been visiting with Dr. Speert for many years. My first gum surgery ever was with him and although I was scared to death, his positive and upbeat demeanor helped me through my first gum procedure. Since that time, and a few implants later, Dr. Speert continues to do his best. He is fair, kind, and down to earth. As long as he is around, I intend to continue with him.

I have been working with Dr Speert for over 20 years. I recently completed 2 implant procedures with Dr Fateh. My experience has been excellent. Both of these Doctors are caring, intelligent and incredible at periodontal treatment. Though its all very serious, they enjoy their work and the atmosphere is relaxed. The rest of the staff are very efficient and personable.

This is a wonderful practice--Dr. Fateh and Dr. Speert are wonderful periodontists, and the staff are all warm, friendly, and very professional.

I visited Dr. Fateh's office for an emergency appointment and I was impressed by his professionalism and attitude. Although, he is a Harvard graduate with amazing credentials, he is very humble and nice. He was also very funny but in a professional way, made me feel very comfortable during my visit. He explained everything to me very thoroughly and explained each step. I thought I had a fractured tooth and needed an implant. He saw me right away. I was pleasantly surprised when I realized that his office was equipped with the newest 3D imaging system in dentistry, it's called CBCT. He took a 3D image of my teeth and accurately evaluated my teeth and the bone around my teeth. He reviewed the images and findings with me, and explained each step of the process. Good news! My tooth didn't have a fracture :) He assured me and made great suggestions for the future. Bad news! I don't need to go back to him for an implant. If I ever need an implant, gum surgery or any periodontal treatment, he would be the person to treat me. A little about the office after all that manner: this office is conveniently located on the Ocean avenue. I found easy parking on street. The office is super clean and organized. Some rooms have nice views of the city and the ocean. My favorite part about this office is all the artworks on the walls...and even the ceiling: a very nice finishing touch for patients to look at calming paintings while getting work done. The best part is the artwork has been donated by patients of the practice.

I had 2 implants done by Dr Speert about 3 years ago. He just has knows what he is doing. They are both straumann implants , the best you can get. Highly recommend him!

I'm very appreciative of the professional services I received from Dr. Fateh and his efficient staff. The office is clean and everyone is supportive. Dr. Fateh took the time to explain the procedures and gave me utmost confidence that I am in good hands. Thank you.

Dr. Fateh and his team are wonderful. My extraction was without pain. He explained the entire experience in detail and accepted my questions with care and professionalism. I look forward to my future treatments.
Tina M.
One of the best experience I have ever had at a dental office. I had to have a tooth extracted and was freaking out. He took the time to explain all the detail about the procedure and He was very gentle, caring and did a great job. I'll definitely recommend Dr Fateh.
Jeffrey T.
Dr Fateh and his team treated me with the utmost care. He did a great job in explaining the issue and the options and is very decisive in his recommendations. The gum surgery was painless and his assurances during the surgery made me feel less anxious during the procedure.

Dr. Speert is friendly and explains everything. Implants went smoothly and didn't hurt more than a day. Appointments are kept pretty close to scheduled time. Everyone is friendly.

What turned out to be a troubled tooth, tuned into being and tooth implant. My regular dentist referred me to Dr. Fateh. He can over right away, while I was in my dentist's chair and performed an examination and consult. He skipped his lunch to take me in the next day for an implant procedure. It was more painless than I could have imagined, his staff were very helpful in the process, and Dr. Fateh was very knowledgalbe and took the time to explain carefully what was going to happen and why. As a result, I have every confidence in this Orthodontist and you will be in good hands with Dr. Fateh.
Karin Z.
I was nervous about the prospect of having dental surgery, until I had my consultation with Dr. Fateh. He's incredibly nice, very professional, and puts you at ease, immediately. And, he's got a great staff, very efficient. The surgery itself went extremely well - again, Dr. Fateh clearly knows what he is doing, did a fantastic job, made me feel very comfortable (and zero pain), and took the time to answer any and all questions I had. Even during the days following the surgery, he called for a followup to check in. I still had no pain. Very good experience. I feel very lucky to have been referred to him. Great surgeon!
