Golden State Family Dentistry/Fara Shahani DMD

Dr. Shahani is the best! After my dad retired from his dental practice, I was searching for a dentist who would provide a similar level of integrity, professionalism, and care … and Dr. Shahani exceeds my expectations. Thank you!

Dr. Shahani and her staff have worked on replacing my older cavities with crowns for the past couple years and have been really helpful in working with my insurance to maximize my benefits. She takes the time to ensure the work is done right the first time and is really sensitive about following up to ensure that everything is comfortable and pain free. I am impressed with the latest equipment and she takes the time to show and explain what the procedure is so that I am always in the know...it may be the engineer in me, but I appreciate the effort. I would highly recommend Dr. Shahani and her staff to work and get your teeth in working order!

Dr Shahani is a very skilled dentist and understands overall dental health. I had 2 highly recommended dentists try and correct a problematic tooth over a two year period. Dr Shahani corrected the “bite” on my tooth and my problem was gone!! Since then I’ve had a filling and a crown done and I’m very pleased with her work. I was kept comfortable, and her skill administering anesthesia is superb. She is a wonderful, caring person. I travel over 45 miles to visit her office, and it is well worth it!!

Our family of four had been going to Dr. Van Der Wilt since 2010 and we really liked his expertise and bedside manner. So when we found out that he was retiring and his practice was being taken over by another doctor, we were very skeptical about the new dentist. But Dr. Fara Shahani took no time to allay those fears. She takes her time with her patients to connect with them at both personal and professional levels. Dr. Shahani has never tried to unnecessarily insist on any procedure. She discusses the cost factor for any suggested procedure and her friendly staff calls the insurance company if her patients want more information. Dr. Shahani has been kind, friendly and very professional and we would recommend her any day!

Dr Shahani became my dentist after she took over the practice of a wonderful dentist I saw for over 20 years. She is exceptional and recommend her without reservation - a fabulous dentist...meticulous, expert, kind, and willing to do whatever is needed to be sure her patients get the best possible service. I have many difficult dental problems and she has tackled every one of them successfully. There have been no surprises about the billing; she works with my insurance and the staff is clear about what I should expect. I give her and her office a 5+ rating!
