I was very pleased with my experience. I have an issue that requires surgery but due to my medical condition I will need to "go under". This office does do that but the provider was extremely informative why and referred me to where to go. I truly appreciate how clear and easy her explanation was for me to understand. I would absolutely refer this office to my family and friends. Plus I must also mention how friendly the front office staff were as well. Thank you.

10/10 experience!
My mom recently had surgery here, and we didn’t realize she would be under general anesthesia, so we were both a little nervous. Jessica was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She answered all of my questions, made my mom feel so comfortable on the day of surgery, and truly made us feel cared for throughout the entire process.
She even told us that if we had any questions afterward, we could ask for her personally. That level of care is so rare to find these days.
Thank you, Jessica, for making such a stressful experience so much easier. We’ll definitely be bringing my kids here when they need their wisdom teeth removed. I just hope Jessica is still working at this location when that time comes!

I first off want to extend my immense gratitude to all the staff here and the doctor who attended me, and how grateful I am for their patience and understanding of my situation, I was very worried about continuing to suffer immense pain for another 4-5 weeks but thankfully they were able to sort out everything for me, it was my first time ever being under anesthetic and it was very seamless and one-and-done, they also did their best to make me feel comfortable and keep things light-hearted in the wake of urgency. I can't remember the doctor's name who attended me today, but I thank you for stating the facts and not beating around the bush while also being compassionate, forever grateful for your kindness. I'm doing well right now, I hope to make a complete recovery, and if anything else arises I know where I can go to for help now. Again, sincerely, thank you dearly to all the people who tended to me, you were all kind and wanted what was best for me, never have I had such a positive experience in an unexplored environment. 💜💜💜

The initial wait was a little long but when I went to the back… the staff is great! The procedure went fast and I’ve only taking one pain pill. Jaw is not hurting and bleeding stopped same day.

This place is an utter joke! Twice I have made a 2 hour drive for NOTHING. The first time the doctor decided to leave early for the day. No one bothered to call me to say hey you won’t see a doctor for your CONSULTATION. No, instead they want to be sure to collect money so they won’t inform you that the doctor left early for the day. Not sure how you LEGALLY bill for a consultation when you can’t even see the surgeon but you know- they have their ways. Shame on me for going back for a second Consultation, when the surgeon decided that he didn’t want to be the one to do the surgery. Nothing had changed between the 2 appointments other than the number of teeth. Then to have the surgeon make a comment on how I don’t “look” like a particular disability is DISGUSTINGLY unprofessional!! A complaint will be filed with the state. Go anywhere but here. You’ll be in MUCH better hands.
