    The best! Seriously. Everyone here is just so friendly, nurturing and professional. Dr. Hood and his team are good at what they do!

    I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Erik Sayles. I saw him for severe complex TMJ disorder…read more I will start this review by saying I have dealt with many, many Drs in the last 15 years because of the MS and several co-morbid illnesses that I've had to contend with. I have a well rounded experience with Drs who make a difference and those who don't. With saying that, I highly recommend Dr. Erik Sayles, Oral Maxillofacial Surgeon. He is a doctor who makes a difference. He was on time, alert and attentive, extremely knowledgeable. Who also carries the best bedside manner and is friendly, compassionate, listened, intelligent, thought outside the box, thorough with exam, and thorough with suggestions and options to proceed forward, as well as, has great follow up to make sure you are well taken care of. He made sure that I was completely comfortable with all the decisions along the way

    The entire experience sucked! From meeting the so called dentist ERIC, who has absolutely no…read morebedside manners, to him yelling at me for making loud noises (because I was nervous) and was having 2 molars extracted, as he tells me to be quite because he had other patience in the other rooms and didn't want them to hear me, to the fact I never received my prescription for my antibiotics after calling twice. I DO NOT recommend this place for anyone!!!! OH yeah, I was told the extractions would run me about $300. Then they found out I had dental insurance and charged my insurance company almost $1,000 and I had to pay $160 out of my pocket as well. So over $1,000 for two teeth to be extracted and he left a piece of one tooth in my mouth!!! I will not be going back there ever!

    I have been to his office several times. In all honesty, I cannot recommend. Initially, I went…read morefor the bottom half of a tooth broke off. The tooth had to be extracted, and I was in pain over a week. I was advised to replace bridge I had would cost a certain amount, I felt the price was too high. So, while he was addressing one issue, I asked if the price could be lower. He went back and forth what would be needed. He kept bragging how he was the best dentist. Finally, when he realized I would not go for price he stated. He stated he could do nothing. At my last visit for teeth cleaning, a different person than the one I had been accustomed to did my cleaning. This woman did not explain things well, was extremely rough, and never gave me a breather. She started to floss my teeth, and I had to stop. When I went to the receptionist, I was very angry. I was not going to say anything. Then, this totally unprofessional woman goes to the receptionist and says she (meaning me) just got up and left. At that point, I got mad and stated why I was so angry. Woman then says that she was cleaning my teeth (that justified her extreme roughness) and at that point I lost it. She then says why didn't you say anything-I just looked at her (how can someone say something when something is in their mouth). Then, she and the receptionist go running to the dentist like two idiot children. At that point, I left. Finally, I cannot comprehend how this dentist was ever rated number one.

    Excellent care quality. Accommodating in every aspect of his professional dentistry. When he fixes…read morea dental problem, it stays fixed. He works quickly and without pain. He is great for emergency visits, very accommodating, again, the patient's comfort is first. The office is clean and neat. All staff are professionally presentable; you won't about the hygiene in this office. His apt. scheduling is flexible, if you can not get the EXACT time or day, it will be as close as possible, but in 3 years, I always got the time slot I feel comfortable in.

    Sadly I would not recommend this practice. My two teen kids switched over to them after their…read moreother dentist closed unexpectedly. We wanted another dentist in town that took our insurance. After submitting all intake paperwork online, my kids went to their appointment and then I got a call that they had received none of the paperwork for one of my kids. We had to walk through everything over the phone. After that, they didn't even get cleaning appointments that day. It was solely an intake appointment. So one of my kids went back a few days later for her cleaning. Her next cleaning was then rescheduled for 15 months away from now. Every 6 months is standard. I'm not having my kids wait over a year between cleanings especially when insurance covers them every six months. So...we're already switching. If you are that over booked, then you should not accept new patients. I called them to get records sent to a different practice, and they haven't called me back yet, so this isn't an organized and responsive office. The staff were polite and friendly, but we did not have a good experience.

    Horrendously inefficient and manipulative. Called over a month ago, gave my insurance which they…read moresaid they took. While I was driving there ( and I am an hour away) they called to say that I would have to pay and that they would NOT take my insurance. They said that they don't check it until the morning of the appointment ! I was going there because they took my insurance. It's a con job.

What difference does it make what gender someone is for their dentistry?! There was one very inconvenient outlet in the waiting area (2016, nearly everyone has devices and for the length of the wait, it'd be nice to be able to charge them). I came in for an emergency extraction. I was in pain. I then had to have an exam, xrays, get pitched for their services before getting an appointment to pull my tooth.
