Superb service! Tooth Extraction #30 could not be saved. Dr. Wood's Skill was amazing. I had NO discomfort, NO need for Pain Pills, the Hole is Beautifully Neat, NO stitches necessary.
Because of infection I had blisters on both sides of my mouth, and without Asking him too, he added a Subscription to address that issue as well. I'm VERY Grateful. He has a Warm Caring Personality.
Thank you Doctors Wood, So Very Much.

We had an incredible experience with this practice! The oral surgeon, Dr Wood, is not only brilliant and highly skilled but also genuinely kind, friendly, and even fun, which instantly put my daughter at ease. It is clear he truly cares about his patients and will always prioritize what is best for their long-term health. The entire staff was amazing—professional, welcoming, and efficient. We couldn't have asked for better care and highly recommend them!
