My son had his wisdom teeth removed here and the experience was remarkably positive every step of the way from scheduling the consultation thru his surgery and follow-up. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful and knew anything I needed to know. My son was nervous, having an abject fear of needles and never a cavity. His Dr and her entire staff were so reassuring and supportive. He did so well he surprised himself and his recovery went just as easy. Highly recommend Parkside Oral Surgery, they were wonderful to work with.

Dr. Liao and her staff are amazing! I am thankful to have found them to take care of my mom's oral surgery needs. In April 2026 they accommodated Mom's wheelchair for x-rays and a tooth extraction. They kept my 94 year old mom comfortable and pain free throughout the process. This was my mom's second procedure with Dr. Liao over the last 3 years, both of which have been highly successful. Thank you, Dr. Liao and team!

Parkside Oral Surgery, the front office staff, the nurses and techs, and Dr. Karwowska were nothing short of AMAZING. They were highly communicative, patient, and pleasant. I have special needs and they were not only adaptable, but knew best practices for me- and I am highly grateful!
They were able to get me in last minute with a referral from my dentist and provide the best care. I highly recommend this practice- a million times over. Thank you so so so much Parkside for making a horrible situation/injury transition into a seamless recovery!

Knowledgeable oral surgeon dr K, friendly and very competent front office/admin staff. Did a great job explaining procedure and lricess steps I needed done as well as being clear on financials/cost to me vs insurance. No surprises.

I know it’s common to dread and fear going to the dentist, let alone to have a tooth extracted, but I could not have had a more perfect experience than I had at Parkside. Everyone, from my first visit at the reception desk, to the consultation, review of billing, and the actual (gulp!) extraction was of the highest quality. Waiting time was no issue whatsoever. Dr. Chang was very personable, took time to explain the procedure, medication, and follow up instructions, and answer any questions I had. At my request, She also looked at another tooth that I recently had issues with, without a second thought. I highly recommend Parkside Oral Surgery.
