Dr. O’Brien and his team were wonderful with my daughter. My daughter had her 4 wisdom teeth removed and another tooth. He contacted me after we arrived home to check in and make sure my daughter was doing ok. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

This was an exceptional experience. The facility waiting room is comfortable, spacious and stocked with coffee and water if desired. Upon entering you are welcomed at the reception desk, taken to a consultation room and eventually taken to a surgical room. The surroundings and staff made me feel relaxed and assured. Every member of the staff professionally completed their tasks and made this experience wonderful. Thank you for the time taken pre-surgery and for the painless procedure. The entire team did a fantastic job from start to finish and most appreciated is your smiles.

This the most amazing DDS. VanErmen was so caring and kind while i cried in his office, terrified about having my tooth pulled. His staff was so understanding and kind. It was over before I knew it. I couldn't believe it went so fast. Highly recommend him..and will tell anyone who will listen about how awesome this DDS is.

I'd give them 1,000 stars if I could, the team was absolutely amazing ! they made it so comfortable an quick. If I could come for all dental work I would , I wish I could remember everyone's name but I know the younger gal that helped me do my X-Rays was the absolute sweetest. I cried till I went under & she was so kind to wipe my tears for me while continuing to relax my nerves . A BIG Thank you to the staff in CB you guys are the BEST! Highly recommend

My son who is in the Marine Corps reserves had to reschedule his appointment because I wasn't aware he had duty this weekend. When I called to reschedule i asked about any charge at the time of the consult and was advised it is 150 dollars, which that seems excessive for a consult. I was also ad that it would be needed at the time of rescheduling because of canceling the day of appointment. I found out Wednesday night when he came home from college for the holidays and your office was closed and it was closed the next day for Christmas. Also I would think there would be more understanding with military duties. I will find a different oral surgery clinic to handle my son's wisdom teeth removal
