This experience was traumatic and didn't help any with my fear of the dentist. Im definitely not returning to fear factor surgeons office! :/ Last thing Danny was awesome she made sure I was ok and even tried to comfort me.

I know that he stays current on the dental and oral surgery research and he's always willing to go the extra mile for their patients.

So, I've been seeing the elder Dr (William) Ruskin (William Ruskin is Aaron Ruskin's father) in the…read moresame practice for about 8 years and have had nothing but very positive experiences through 3 extractions and 4 implants. Also, I had one implant incorrectly installed in Ohio which failed, leaving me in significant pain, and Dr. Ruskin was able to get me in immediately to remove the failed implant. He later replaced the failed implant and I have had no problems the replacement. As for the staff, yes I have experienced some abruptness from certain staff members but I'd stop short of calling it rude (more like mildly unpleasant). Also, this was more of a problem 3-4 years ago at the Brighton office and I never experienced it at the Farmington Hills office except when some calls were automatically redirected to Brighton from Farmington Hills. Finally, yes they do not like to dig into your insurance details if they are not a participating provider, as it was for me in past years. However, in cases where my implants were not covered by insurance, they participate in something called DentaMax which gives a discount on the uncovered procedures (about 25%-30% for me) (but you still have to pay). I personally overlook the administrative issues in favor of the excellent quality of care and see Dr Ruskin exclusively for my extractions and implants. Dr. William Ruskin has always listened to me as a patient and is a great doctor.

*This is a long review, but if you're interested in seeing Dr. William Ruskin, please read it all.*…read more First of all, to anyone looking for an oral surgeon, please believe me when I say the previous two reviews are unfair, in my opinion. I feel sorry if someone had a bad experience with Dr. Ruskin and/or his staff, but it is what it is. I am what you may call a worrier, especially when it comes to anything that has to do with sedatives, anesthesia, and cutting body parts open. That being said, I searched high and low for a surgeon when my wisdom teeth were finally putting me in enough pain for me to acknowledge them. After for searching for a month (yes, I'm crazy), I did come across Dr. William Ruskin on a website called usatopdentists.com. Since he is in my area, I googled his name to see if I could confirm that he is worthy of such a title. I came across these reviews and was honestly put off. I met a couple surgeons who not only didn't care for my business, but really didn't seem capable of extracting my teeth. I had two impacted teeth, which needed to be taken out by an oral surgeon, especially because of their close proximity to my nerves. After asking around, it seemed ironic that 2 people who have no relation to each other referred me to Dr. William Ruskin. I decided I had nothing to lose by giving him a shot. Guys, I am young and look even younger than I actually am, so I don't get the best service wherever I go, because you know, people don't take me as serious. Little do they know how vital good customer service is to me. Having said that, I can't express to you how amazing everyone at this office was--especially the receptionist, Renee. She was AWESOME. Not only were they all so courtious, kind and helpful, but they were pretty quick and seemed to know what they were doing. Dr. Ruskin was so absolutely kind, patient and caring that I immediately felt comfortable with him putting me to sleep and taking all 4 of my wisdom teeth out, even with the possible risk of nerve damage. He warned me of it, which I respect. My surgery went perfectly, and I had no complications with healing. I did have dry socket on one side, but that is my own fault for dislodging the clot and was manageable with advil. I went in for my followup the next week, and he said everything looked good. After that, I was on my merry way out. I seriously could not have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a surgeon who knows what he's doing and is skilled and kind, at least consult with him. You will not regret it.
