Madelyn L. Ballard, DDS

Dentists in Berkeley tend to cluster near the university, but Madelyn L. Ballard, DDS keeps a quieter presence on Colby Street—just far enough from the Telegraph Avenue bustle to feel like a neighborhood secret. The practice handles everything from routine cleanings to more involved procedures like crowns, bridges, and root canals; even the occasional emergency visit seems to get slotted in without the usual downtown rush. It’s the kind of place where the paperwork moves quickly and the chair time feels less like a production line. Northside Berkeley still has pockets where you can park without circling, and 3010 Colby St # 117 is one of them. If you need a filling, a check-up, or just a second opinion on that molar, dial (510) 845-2350 and book a slot. For directions, pull up the map here.
