Patient Impact

“I felt so glad that I was able to help a recent patient who was turned away by another local dentist. They were told that their treatment couldn’t be done within their budget and their insurance couldn’t be used because the other office only took cash. We were able to provide a better treatment than the patient expected, with more quality materials, and all within their budget. Best of all, we were able to negotiate with their insurance for paying part of the treatment. Whenever we can provide these solutions for my patients, it makes our whole office shine.”

Personal Favorites

Dr. Setareh’s favorite book is The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, her favorite film is “Casino Royal,” and her favorite TV shows are “American Idol” and “Dancing with the Stars.”
