The receptionist was attentive and very friendly. Explained everything. Same with the nurse. Very informative and helpful. Dr Schaffer is one of the best. He definitely cares for his patients and only wants the best results for them. Oral Surgery Associates in Council Bluffs is the place to go if you want great care and people who care.

The assistant made me way more comfortable and relaxed during this post implant….. came in there nervous/ anxious, was not as a bad as I anticipated. 12 hours later and not much pain at the moment! Teddy was Awesome! Would highly recommend!…

I received efficient and professional care from everyone at this practice. Starting with my initial conversation to make my appointment, to the billing team members, the radiologist and chairside care provider. They explained in full detail using easy to understand non-technical language. They checked with me several times just in case I had a question. I liked that they had an intern observing the esteemed Dr. Barton. I was an intern many years ago & was reminded of how grateful I felt for the confidence of the patient' & the ease of their cooperation. Certainly not the least, but lastly was Dr.Burton's charm, robust skill, respect for me in answering my questions, and swift completion of the procedure was beyond my expectations. He is a champion among his peers. If you need to see an oral surgeon, you have my recommendations for this practice. I am grateful to have these professionals in my community.

My son had his wisdom teeth removed & I had a couple teeth removed at the same time (thanks to dad/husband!) and everyone took great care of us both! Even kept me updated. Will be back with our youngest!

My husband had 2 teeth extracted - wasn't sure going on how many would be taken out but very pleased decision was made to take care of things now! From the time we arrived to the time we left all personnel, Dr. , nurse were super!!! They explained procedures, how things went, and post surgery instructions. They could not have been more professional and caring in their approach! We would highly recommend them to anyone!!! They are the best! Thank you, Oral Surgery Associates!!
