I was honestly terrified going into my root canal. Due to finding out the day before that I needed one. But Dr. samer Hejlawy completely changed that experience for me. From the moment I walked in, he was so kind, patient, and reassuring. He took the time to explain everything and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. I expected pain or at least some discomfort, but I genuinely didn't feel anything during the procedure. If you're someone who gets anxious about dental work like I do, I can't recommend him enough. This was way easier than I ever imagined, and I'm so grateful for how smooth and stress free he made it. Thank you again, Dr. samer Hejlawy! read more

Who wants a root canal?! No one! Ugh I was super dreading this news. But I asked my dentist to refer me to the doctor's office I had to visit 5 years ago. Luckily my doctor was still there and practicing. I was extremely nervous to go back, but I couldn't have had a better experience. Everyone on one of the staff is so welcoming and understands my nervousness. Julia and doctor did an excellent job of calming my nerves and working efficiently. I was out rather quickly, and the doctor did an incredible job. I have no pain or discomfort the next day. I highly recommend them. Even for the most nervous of patents. read more

I was referred last week for a root canal. It was as good of an experience that one could have during this process. Staff and doc were great. read more

This review is for phone etiquette only- My dentist office referred me here for a consult. I gave the office a call and the person who answered the phone seemed rushed and hurried. I explained to her what I needed to make an appointment for and she would not allow me to schedule because she had not gotten x rays from my dentist office. Usually you schedule the patient then you get everything prior to the appointment. However the person that answered the phone said she wasn't able to and that she would call me back to schedule. Well two weeks have gone by and I never received a call. I reached out to my dentist office to ask them to refer me elsewhere and I couldn't be more happy with that decision. Phone etiquette is literally everything when you are in this business and is really the face of the company. read more

I was referred to this office because I needed a root canal, they squeezed me in the same day. The dr. Confirmed I needed the root canal he was able to prescribe antibiotics and pain meds. I scheduled an appointment the following week. I went in yesterday got my root canal and feel good. The care was great, the front desk was great and the office was so clean. I totally recommend this office. read more

I was referred to Blue Oak Endo with an emergency issue. HIGH level of pain. I was in their chair within 90 minutes. The waiting area was so clean. I arrived early to make sure all my info was entered into the system from my phone. It was not. They thanked me for arriving early to complete the info requested. My pain stopped as soon as the the anesthetic was administered. The doctor involved me in the images taken. Interesting & informative. He pointed out something else he noted, to share with my general office. Mid appointment, I used the restroom. Again, I was so impressed with the cleanliness. I couldn't find a dot of dust, even on the baseboards. I believe, I was out around noon & I NEVER had pain afterwards. Everyone has a root canal story. Mine is a good one. Thank you to the entire staff. read more

Thank you Blue Oak Endodontics and Dr. Hejlawy. It was so refreshing to go to an office, where the staff are professional and well trained, the office was immaculate and very modern. Dr Hejlawy took the time to explain what was being revealed by the x-ray, and came up with a treatment plan that made sense. Patient care in this office is top notch. read more

Yesterday I had my very first root canal procedure done at Blue Oak Endodontics. I was a little apprehensive being in my 60's and had never needed a root canal before. The office was bright and cheery. Rosie at the front desk greeted me with a kind smile. After some paperwork and high tech X-rays Dr. Hejlawy and his assistant Chelsea completed the procedure gently, efficiently and explained every step very clearly. I felt very comfortable. I highly recommend this office if you are ever in need of a quality procedure with kind, caring and gentle staff. read more

Excellent service. Thoughtful review and honest answers. Lots of equipment and technical skill.

I had an emergency root canal this morning, and I can't say enough about how nice it is work with an office with such friendly people. I worked with them a few years ago and Dr. Hejlawy remembered me. I'm very impressed with this office! Even though I don't like to get a root canal, I'd be more than happy to work with this office in the future. Thank you to everyone in the office. read more

I went with my daughter yesterday for a consultation to fix a bad root canal. She's got anxiety and going to the dentist is very scary for her. This office is amazing and the entire staff is wonderful. She really liked the doctor too and he completely put her at ease...she has no worries at all about going back to get the work done. Thank You Blue Oak for being awesome! read more

I needed a root canal. I called to make an appointment and was seen the same day! All of the staff were so helpful. I walked in, the office was clean, warm and inviting. The dentist made sure I was comfortable and the rda's did also. I was informed of everything that was going to take place and the appointment went pretty quickly, considering it was within a couple of hours of their closing time! So glad I was referred to Blue Oak! A wonderful dental practice! read more

I am TERRIFIED and I mean TERRIFIED of the dentist. I woke up with pain and headed to my regular dentist this morning. He recommended I see an endodontist as I may need a root canal. I called Blue Oak and they had me in the chair within 3 hours. Dr. Hejlawy is hands down the best endodontic Dr I have ever seen. He was kind, personable, and explained everything! I never even felt anxious once I got into the chair, which is extremely uncommon for me. His staff are also amazing. I was greeted by two wonderful ladies w smiling faces! Also, his assistant (Michelle I think) was so compassionate and caring. I couldn't tell her enough how happy I was with the whole process. One more thing...I loved all of their advanced technology they use! Makes going to the dentist easier/faster. Thanks again for everything and although I loved you guys I hope to never be back! read more

I don't write a lot of reviews, but I really wanted to give a review for this specialist. The office staff was very nice and welcoming. It was a very pleasant experience. I went in there to get a specialist opinion on my root canal and the doctor was honest, caring, and explained everything Definitely a great specialist to go to read more

This office is absolutely wonderful. I called with somewhat of an emergency of tooth pain and swelling. They were able to get me in the same day. They were very quick, efficient and told me clearly what needed to be done. They then had me come in the very next day to start work. The entire office is meticulously clean. The staff are super adorable and nice. They explained everything that was going to happen to me. They calmed all my fears and answered all my questions. I have never had a doctor so gentle. I literally dozed off while having root canal work done by the Dr. I'm not even joking. I cannot recommend this office enough. I have always had a fear of Dentist/endodontics. This office has completely put my mind at ease. I cannot recommend them enough to anybody and everybody. Thank you again!! read more

My experience was as delightful as dental work can be. Great people and atmosphere. In about an hour Dr Samer had two root canals done, posts installed and the two teeth reconstructed to receive crowns. No pain during the work or after the anesthetic had worn off. I recommend them without reservation. read more

Dr. Samer neglected my need of care for 7-months in where I ended up at the ED with a large abscess. Originally, I had issues with one tooth and after his negligence two tooth ended up being damaged. He also refused to provide me with the needed anesthesia during a root canal. He notified me after he had sealed a root canal tooth, that he had left a piece of metal from a drill that had broken in the canal. He refused to remove the peace of metal. I also witnessed him talking down to his female staff in more than one occasion. read more

Dr Samer is an amazing endodontist. He is definitely for his patients comfort. He is focused on getting people out of pain as fast as possible. He is professional, knowledgeable and has state of the art new technology. I highly recommend this office to friends and family. Also noted he has a wonderful team that do their best to provide a clean welcoming atmosphere. I think those girls deserve a raise. read more

If you need a root canal I highly recommend them..they are very friendly and explained everything step by step..best part of all no pain :) Highly recommend..Thank you! read more

My husband went here for two root canals Dr did a great job. Excellent Dr and was reasonable Michelle his RDA was great too.

My first root canal and what a wonderful experience. Everyone from the doctor and his assistant were amazing. Very gentle and kind treatment. They showed such concern and care through the whole experience. Front and back office team members were also great. read more

After doing some research decided this practice would be the best for my root canal - what a great dental team - root canals are not nearly as dreaded as they were years ago - that is if you have Dr. Samer do it for you - he is very professional and has a wonderful personality - even though I had a complicated situation he took care of it with little pain / The rest of his staff also deserve 5 stars starting with Ruouaa, the receptionist, who fields all the clerical questions in a friendly manner even under pressure - the other assistants (Michelle / Keneisha / Chelsie) are equally polite and professional in every way possible - so no need to look any further if you have a endodontic problem - just call Blue Oak for an appointment / read more

Anyone that has experienced tooth pain can appreciate Dr. Hejlawy willingness to keep his office open extended hours to do a root canal to end the pain in my tooth. I was very nervous at first, but son relaxed as he explained each step of the procedure. Amazing office staff that all work together to provide the best of care. Dr. Hejlawy also was very willing to suggest ways of helping with how to work with my dental insurance to cover the cost of not just one root canal, but two! I have no problem recommending Dr. Hejlawy and his great team to receive help with dental needs. read more

Going for a root canal is never fun. Believe me, I dread it. But, Dr Samer and his staff made it sort of fun? His skill and chairside manner helped calm me, and heal me. Highly recommend this endodontist. read more

It was my first visit to this office as they were kind enough to fit me into their busy schedule for a root canal (on an incisor that had become inflamed) the day after it was diagnosed by Dr. Sean, my dentist. Here are my impressions: The office waiting room is patient-friendly, comfortable and tastefully decorated; it even has a mini-frig with an assortment of beverages for its dry-mouthed or nervous patients. Julianna runs the front desk and she is amazing! She handles everything from appointments to in and out-going calls, works the computer and billing forms, yet never seems to be stressed. I had met her the day before after leaving my dentist so I could locate the office and pre-fill the paperwork needed for the following day. She even called me the day of the appointment as she had to adjust my slot to a slightly later time and did not want me to wait in the office when I could be doing other things! Next I was introduced to Dr. Hejlawy who was the endodontist. He and his assistant, Carla, were very kind, welcoming and made me comfortable while they organized the tools they needed as my infected tooth is very small. This office was really busy -- but everything was synchronized. He examined the tooth and explained what was going on, then asked me if I had been stressed lately (He did not know that there had been a recent death in my small family); seemed he had a sixth sense and a lot of experience with cause and effect. An hour later I was done with a minimum of pain and stress; he then said in case I had any questions or concerns over the weekend, he wrote down his personal cell phone number on his business card he handed to me. That cemented my confidence in the whole operation of Blue Oak and its staff. read more

My daughter was seen for an emergency consult on a Friday afternoon following an acute mouth injury from a fall while ice skating. Dr. Hejlawy was absolutely amazing in every way. He treated us both with kindness and compassion and his work and professionalism is beyond compare. The entire staff: Rosie, Chelsie, Keneisha & Michelle were so welcoming and helpful as well. My daughter's tooth work had to be coordinated along with a delicate stitch repair to her lip, which required the work of another specialist in town within a narrow frame of time. Dr. Hejlawy immediately assessed her injury and formed a plan, which allowed us to then see the specialist across town for completion of the stitch repair. He then braced her tooth and gave her medication and instructions for the weekend. He completed the root canal, Chelsie assisting, with precision early Monday morning. She will see him for a follow-up in a couple of weeks. We are so grateful to Dr. Hejlawy and everyone at Blue Oak Endodontics for everything they did to help us in this emergency situation. read more

I was referred by another dentist for a root canal. 15/10 pain. Been calling since friday almost 5x, and I always get connected with the answering service. Was told that they'd check, but they hung up on me 2x so unsure if that was intentional, they don't know how to put someone on hold, or what the reason being was. I get it that offices can be busy but if it's an emergency which a root canal is due to possible infection but not sure why they couldn't rely the message to the staff or doctor. Really wanted to be seen here but got scheduled immediately with another office. read more

I recently had my first root canal done I was very nervous going into the whole process but they made me feel a lot better after talking with them about everything. My doctor she was very thorough which made me feel better about the whole thing especially since I had to pay the whole thing out of pocket. They also called me the next morning and asked how I was feeling and I 100% recommend read more

I was so happy with the care I received from Dr. Samar and his staff. The receptionist was very professional and helpful as was his entire staff. I was in having a considerable amount of pain due to a crack in a tooth. Dr. Samar was very detailed in his explanation of my problem and was able to perform a root canal and correct the problem the same day I came in for a consultation. I have not had any pain since and am so happy to feel normal again. I would definitely recommend Blue Oak to anyone. read more

We all hate going to the dentist's office. A referral for a root canal brought me to Dr Samir. First impression: this office is like a spa! soft lighting, soft music, professional staff. Kenisha was very thoughtful and kind throughout the procedure. Dr Samir has excellent bedside manners. He spoke softly, told me everything he was doing during the exam and procedure. Was very considerate and thorough. He truly cares about his patience. Be not afraid! read more

I am a patient of Samer Hejlaway DDS. I was so worried about getting a root canal and almost didn't do it. But Dr. Hejlaway explained everything to me and made me feel at ease. He was very friendly and gentle and made the experience better than I ever thought it was going to be. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends or family. I'm so thankful for Dr. Samer Hejlaway read more

Blue Oak Endodontics - feeling stronger now! lol - Endodontists Near Me - Vacaville, California

What a smooth and easy root canal! Dr. Sahar Dadvand and her assistants were all very welcoming, and made the visit relaxing. She has a great sense of humor and explained the process clearly. (My only other root canal was almost 25 years ago, so my memory was hazy on the details.) Dr. Dadvand was attentive to my comfort at all times, and was also very thorough. I left the office feeling well cared-for and in a great mood. I was also really pleased to see how Dr. Dadvand's office coordinated with my dentist, Dr. Pascuala Ocampo -- great communication! read more

I had a great experience with Samer Hejlawy, DDS, MSD and his staff. Needless to say my tooth situation wasn't ideal. He was very honest with me about where I stood and what my options where. He genuinely cared about my situation and was very transparent. Me not being a dentist and not know what the right choices to make are, I felt confident that I was in good hands. They take care credit which was easy to apply for and that was also explained very well to me. As I was having my oral surgery he was quizzing his dental assistants and asking them questions about the procedure being done. I like that he is educating them and wants them to take value from their work being done in the office. As well as understand what's happening and why. Everyone was very friendly. During part one of my treatment I did need stronger pain meds they were ordered and went to Kaiser pharmacy for pickup. When Kaiser messed up and deleted the order the doctor himself (after his work hours) took the time to re send the order for me and then called me personally to let me know it was being taken care of. It's taking the extra time even when on personal time that makes you feel like your being taken care of. I appreciate the friendliness of the staff and the extra mile that was taken to make sure I was good to go. 10/10 read more

My husband had to have an emergency Root Canal and Blue Oak was amazing! They got him an appointment immediately. Dr. Hejlawy was so professional and knowledgeable, I was so impressed by his demeanor. I can't say enough about his staff especially Rosy and Chelsea. Wonderful ladies. A Root Canal is not a fun experience but Blue Oak made it a easy and pleasant experience. And my husband is doing great, the next day! read more

I needed a root canal and all I kept hearing up till my appointment was how terrible it was. Well to be honest this root canal was probably the easiest and smoothest dentist appt I've ever had. I was relaxed brought my headphones and he and his assistant took very good care of me. Highly recommend read more

The Doctor and his staff are not only professional but friendly. They made my experience pain free and pleasant! If you need an Endodontist I without reservation recommend going to Blue Oak! They go above and beyond to make you comfortable and feel important! read more

What a wonderful experience with Blue Oak! My first time experiencing any type of mouth work, was quite nervous the morning of, but after walking in I felt a sense of calm.
