About Us
"THE BEST DENTAL PRACTICE IN ATLANTA!"
Brookhaven Family Dentistry is proud to be one of metro Atlanta's highest rated dental practices. We are 1 of only 2 dental offices in the North Atlanta area that have both over 1,500 reviews AND a perfect 5 star rating on Google. We are a well established part of the Brookhaven/Chamblee community. Dr. Robert Pasersky founded the practice in 1969. He worked and lived in Brookhaven and quickly became the “neighborhood dentist”. He worked for 40 years until his retirement in 2009.
At that time, Dr. Andrew Kokabi took over the practice. The office gradually expanded and then moved across the street in 2015. We then moved to downtown Chamblee in 2025. While the practice has grown, Dr. Kokabi and the Brookhaven Family Dentistry team continue to stick to their neighborhood dental roots in order to preserve Dr. Pasersky’s legacy. Dr. Kokabi and his family are proud Brookhaven residents since 2009.
Our Dental Mission
Minimally invasive dentistry in a family friendly & comfortable setting
We use the most current dental technology to provide you with the highest level of care. It is our duty to educate you about your oral health. We will discuss all of your options in order to ensure you understand the steps involved with any dental procedure. Your teeth are important and we want to help you keep them healthy for a long time!
One unique thing about our practice is that we take a minimally invasive approach to dentistry. We look at drilling as a last resort. This non-aggressive dental philosophy has served us well for over 50 years and we shall continue it for many more.
Our Community Mission
Dentistry rooted in community
We recognize the special qualities of the Chamblee/Brookhaven community and are grateful to be a part of it. We believe a dental office should do more than provide excellent dental care. It should be an active and positive part of the community it serves. That is why we are intentional about giving back through school sponsorships, charitable partnerships, volunteer efforts, and local business support. Our unique Brighten Your Smile, Better the World campaign and Spotlight on Small Business initiative are hallmarks of our community giving.
