Mohamed Fayad is fabulous. I came to him with a root canal a general dentist had screwed up, and he was concerned that he might not be able to do the job properly, and that I might ultimately need surgery, but he agreed to go ahead and give it a go. I watched him on the monitor for the microscope (state of the art equipment!) and he carefully finessed the job and straightened out the complicated problem without surgery. When I later thanked my general dentist for referring me to him, he told me that there are several endodontists he refers to, but that he sent me to Mohamed because I had a difficult case, and he thinks he is so talented, and also because he has a well deserved reputation for attempting to solve hard problems that other docs shy away from -- I couldn't agree more! Since then he has had to help again with another problematic tooth -- and even though I have moved from the area, I'd fly back to see Mohamed if I needed another root canal. He's got excellent judgment, can justify all his reasoning for procedures, and can answer any hard question you throw at him. He's an endodontist that other dental pros would go to -- not because he is one of those that holds your hand during the procedure -- b/c he's GOOD!
