Mahboob Jamal, DDS

Me and my family have been going to this office for years! I’m very shocked to read the review below me, maybe you caught him on a bad day? He is of an elder age, but that also means he has more experience so I don’t see it as a bad thing. He has never been anything but kind to my family and efficient in his work, at least to us.

New to Santa Monica… That being said I had no idea who I was going too. My five year old son had a dental emergency my insurance company assigned me to this DDS. I called to make the appt. at 8:45am a man answered the phone and said HELLO. I thought I had the wrong number. Puzzled I hung up and called again… again the man answered the phone I asked if this was a dental office he said yes… I was very thrown off but made an appt. (asked his name he said Dr. Mahboob) for that afternoon I figured that his office personal was’nt in yet. I… very weary took my son to the appt. The office was OLD RUNDOWN and kinda creepy. What made it even more creepy was that there was no personal… none at all!!! Just a little old man in a dirty white coat (the doctor). I said that my son had an appt. he said ahh yes open your mouth… in the empty waiting room (NO Gloves) he looked inside his mouth and said come here. He then proceeded to take us to the exam room. I was mortified! There was a tray that had bloody tissues, dirty floss and equipment. Not to mention a pair of sunglasses also dirty on the tray. I said he just needs an auth to see the child specialist he said okay walked us to the front desk and tried to do it himself he had no clue what he was doing. My son never got referred the whole thing was just shady and SCARY!!! Please stay away from this man he should not even be licensed!
