Welcome to Samaritan Endodontics

I had my first-ever root canal with Dr. Nava Fathi, and I honestly could not have asked for a better experience. My dentist referred me to Dr. Fathi on a Thursday evening. She saw me for a consultation Friday morning and scheduled my root canal for the following Monday at 11:00. I mentioned that if anything opened up earlier, I would gladly take it. Monday morning, at around 7:00 AM, Dr. Fathi called to tell me that her 8:00 appointment had rescheduled and asked if I wanted to come in. Absolutely! By 9:30, the procedure was finished—and, most importantly, the pain that had brought me there was gone. She numbed my upper right tooth (#2), and I can genuinely say I did not even feel the needle. Other than the unavoidable discomfort of keeping my mouth open for a while, the entire procedure was painless. Dr. Fathi explained what she was doing as she went along, answered my questions, and was professional, confident, and reassuring throughout. Her assistant was top-notch as well. She also had a high school student who is interested in becoming a dentist observing and assisting. I particularly enjoyed watching Dr. Fathi teach her—she was kind and encouraging, but also clear and firm in her instructions. Dr. Fathi and I got along wonderfully. She has a fascinating background, and I came away hoping that the next generation of dentists has the opportunity to learn from people like her. Technical skill is obviously critical in dentistry, but people skills matter just as much. Dr. Fathi has both. Her office is immaculate, modern, and high-tech, her staff is excellent, and my entire experience—from consultation to treatment—could not have been easier. For my first root canal, this was truly easy as pie. I would recommend Dr. Fathi without hesitation.

Painless root canal procedure. Dr. Fahti is great, she tells you all your options, answers all your questions, and tells you what she's doing throughout the procedure so you have an idea of how much longer procedure will be. I have zero pain. So glad my dentist, Dr. Mark Watson referred me to her. I'd recommend her to anyone who needs to see an endodontist.

Dr. Fathi was recommended to me by a trusted local group, and I am so grateful I found her! My very young daughter needed a root canal, which was a unique and stressful situation. As a parent who is sensitive to radiation and medication exposure, I came in with a lot of questions. After a negative experience with another Endodontist who dismissed my concerns, Dr. Fathi was a breath of fresh air. She was incredibly patient, took the time to educate and reassure me, and treated me with absolute respect and kindness from start to finish—never once making me feel ridiculous for asking questions. Beyond being a wonderful doctor, she is a lovely person with a beautiful office. A huge bonus is her amazing staff! They were so great with my daughter, patiently answered all my questions, and helped navigate the confusing insurance process. Dr. Fathi and her team were always responsive to calls and emails, even over the weekend when I had an urgent question. I will 100% be recommending her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate Endodontist.

Dr Fathi and her team did a terrific job with my root canal! It was challenging with 4 roots hiding and decay as well, and she got everything taken care of! Amazing work, and much appreciated. I would recommend them and would see them again!
