I am so grateful I was referred by Dr. Huffman to Dr. Vafaie who was able to see me despite the pandemic and give me EXCELLENT care.
I had a chipped filling that was continuing to erode away while Shelter in Place was in effect. I had hoped to weather the discomfort until Covid-19 blew over, but one night I experienced excruciating pain in that tooth that caused me to seek out dental care. Dr. Huffman referred me to Dr. Vafaie after viewing pictures of my tooth. Dr. Vafaie contacted me and was very communicative and calming about how to proceed going forward. He and his staff were able to see me soon after contacting him. They took great care to create a safe environment for both patient and provider. I am a health care provider, myself, at UCSF, and I was extremely impressed with the lengths Dr. Vafaie’s office took prevent infection and to keep everyone safe. Dr. Vafaie performed a root canal on the tooth in question. He did an excellent job with the procedure and made me feel comfortable with every step. He and his staff communicated with me extremely well throughout that morning, and I felt nothing while being worked on.
I will forever be grateful for Dr. Vafaie for the excellent and timely care despite the risk of seeing someone during this current pandemic. THANK YOU Dr. Vafaie; thank your staff. I am forever grateful!
