The Santa Cruz Oral Surgery staff members are courteous, professional, and kind. I went in a little nervous about having my procedure done and was talked to, supported and was very well cared for. They did a wonderful job and made sure I felt safe and left with all the information I needed to heal properly. I would recommend to anyone! Thank you all!! Sincerely, Alisa M

I have been absolutely terrified to get my wisdom teeth removed and have put this off for years and years. I cannot begin to tell you how incredibly kind and helpful EVERY single person who works at Santa Cruz Oral Surgery is. From start to finish I was treated so well. They answered all my questions and listened to all of my concerns before and after. I had no pain and no swelling and am so happy that they were the ones to do my procedure. If you need anything done, this is the place. If I could give them 100 stars I would. Thanks again Santa Cruz Oral Surgery.

I had all my upper teeth replaced so that I could get a 4 on one. I didn't feel a thing-just woke up and all upper teeth were gone. As soon as all was healed, I got the implant posts put in. I now have a great smile. Dr.Khalilzadeh and his staff were wonderful. He was very professional and answered all my questions throughout the process.

From the moment I entered the office, I was met with smiles and friendliness. Once seated in the chair, the wonderful nurse took a very in-depth medical history, which I greatly appreciated, considering the extensiveness of it. She was very medically knowledgeable, which also put me at ease. Dr. T.J. was very soothing as he did the extraction, talking softly as he worked, telling me ahead of time what he was going to do next, any unusual sounds I might be able to hear, so I didn't worry. My blood pressure was monitored the entire time and afterward in Post Op. A nurse sat with me the entire time I was in Post Op, and then when I was ready to leave, she walked me out to my car. Such personal and friendly professionals that I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Wow, Dr. Touraj and his team were wonderful. My fiancé had all 4 of her wisdom teeth removed and we had a great experience. Super empathetic team. A big shoutout to Juliette for going above and beyond as well. Highly recommend.
