Visited Atlanta Oral & Facial Surgery today to have a tooth extracted…read more My experience this time was just as pleasant as my first experience. Ms. Shaquita, was extremely helpful with directions and making sure we parked in the correct place. I was greeted immediately as I entered the office door. My wait time in the lobby before being called back for my procedure was no more than ten minutes. They offer very spacious waiting area, so you're not sitting on top of other patients while you wait. Steve Harvey, Family Feud marathon is on the TV offering a great distraction if you're nervous. Dr. Sruthi was great and explained the procedure as she went along making me feel comfortable. If you need Oral surgery this is the place to go. It was the amazing experience for me the 2nd time around.

I had a really bad experience here and would highly recommend not coming here. Overall it was…read moreunprofessional, and even disrespectful. It felt like they are focused on money and not on providing the best patient experience. I scheduled an appointment for a tooth extraction. I was pushed into having my consultation and procedure on the same day. On the phone prior to the appointment, I was informed I would be paying the full price out of pocket, and that the procedure would cost in the range of $600-800. This was very palatable to me. Once I got to my appointment, I met Dr. Cole for my consultation. He did not discuss the details of the tooth extraction, but only discussed two different options for an implant. I had no prior knowledge of how the extraction or the tooth implant process works, and had no idea we would be doing the implant today. He sent me back to the waiting room while they put together an estimate. When the staff pulled me back, they presented me with an estimate for over $6,000. I was understandably very shocked and didn't know what to do. The staff member did not walk me through the line items, and I had to ask questions to understand it while being in shock and trying not to cry. I felt I had no time to make an adequate decision, and that the doctor/office was pressuring me into an extremely expensive surgery. I think this could have been easily prevented by providing me an estimate of the implant prior to the appointment. Or not pushing me to have a same day consultation and surgery. I decided to go ahead with just the tooth extraction because I had an infection that I did not want to wait any longer to treat. I was taken back to the procedure room and put on laughing gas. The doctor came in and noticed I had been crying and asked why. I explained the pricing was shocking to me and the lack of communication around it had made me very flustered. He offered no reassurance or compassion. He literally said nothing. He numbed my gums and left while that set in. At this point I was alone in the room and I continued to get more panicky and stressed, as I now did not trust the doctor and I also did not know what was going on. The doctor had still not explained any details about what the extraction would be like or what the recovery would be like. I was also stressed that I wasn't getting the effect of the laughing gas becuase my nose was stuffy from crying. One of the staff came in and told me to try to calm down and offered to turn up the laughing gas. When the doctor came back in, he asked if I was numb and I said yes and then he started working on my mouth. He did not explain what he was doing and I was terrified I was going to feel more pain because of the laughing gas not getting to me. The doctor could tell I was uncomfortable, I still had tears in my eyes and was wriggling around in the chair, so he told me I shouldn't feel any pain, just movement and to raise my left hand if I felt any sharp pain. But he still didn't explain what he was doing and it all happened very quick. It felt very crass to come in there and rip my tooth out in 30 seconds without trying to calm me down. It was traumatic. Then he left abruptly without any further information. I got very little verbal after-care instructions from the staff in the room, and I felt left alone to figure out what to do despite being given four different prescriptions (including a narcotic) and two different rinse procedures. I'm also left confused if it's normal that there were no stitches done, if I'm suppose to have any kind of follow up appointment, and also what the next stage of the process looks like for me now. One thing is for sure, I won't be getting the implant done by Dr. Cole. They also charge $10 for wifi in the waiting room which gives you an idea of their priorities.

I can only taste food when I'm swallowing not chewing. I can't even enjoy a simple meal now, some foods and drinksI can't taste it all. And I think it's getting worse. The surgeon that performed the surgery said that is probably permanent. I hate so so much that I paid to have this done. Without my taste buds I have to force myself to eat most of the time. It's so depressing.

I am blessed with a plethora of dental problems, unfortunately. I blamed my British genes for many…read moreyears, but recently my dentist took time to explain to me that my teeth formed in a way that made my dental problems inevitable. I know that there is a lot of anxiety and shame around going to see someone in the dental industry. I was referred here for an emergency extraction of a tooth that had broken under a crown. The first place my current dentist referred me to offered to see me on a Thursday, with the assurance of no action, just consultation, despite the fact that I called on a Tuesday in pain and was leaving the country on a Saturday. Needless to say, I requested a second referral. They then referred me to Georgia Oral Surgery, where the kind front desk manager set me an appointment for Tuesday afternoon. Everyone here is the picture of professional: kind, friendly, and able to make you relax as much as you can in an office where you know you're going to leave behind a piece of your body. Rachel walked me through the medications they were prescribing and the process, then Dr. Muse came in. He was gentle, kind, sweet, and above all, was willing to do whatever I was most comfortable with. I was going to lose the tooth either way, unfortunately, but he thought that I could get through my trip out of the country without extracting it beforehand. However, I figured it made the most sense to just get it out and eliminate any possibility of needing emergency dental care in Mexico or Honduras. He moved around his Thursday morning appointments and made that happen for me. Day of, they prescribed me Xanax to help with my nerves and were so friendly and personable that I wasn't even sure when I actually fell asleep. Even after my appointment, they answered my questions through my sniffles (I always cry coming out of anesthesia), sent me home with written instructions, and called me later in the day to make sure I was doing okay. One day after surgery, I'm back at work with no swelling and no pain. I'm taking antibiotics and ibuprofen to head off any possible problems, but I expect to board the plane tomorrow morning and head to the Caribbean with no dental worries in sight. I plan to send them a handwritten thank you note, but wanted to leave them their very first Yelp review first. I could not have been happier with my experience with Georgia Oral Surgery.

Let's just say that Francis Schafer conducted a Root Canal on the tooth behind tooth number 30 and…read moremanys years later, they find that he left roots in my mouth which caused additional infection to which I'm now being treated for. He should know better as he's a third generation dentist. There's also the possibility that I may not have needed a root canal to begin with. More like a crown was possibly needed instead. They gave me Lidocaine and I could still feel everything. It was a lot of pain but I sat through and have more work coming up. That's more pain to endure. I do not appreciate any of it and I'm shielding out more money for this. Bad Dentist and I said what I said.

After my consultation with Dr. Satishchandran, I have hope regarding my mouth situation!

She also removed an implant that was moving. I have asked a few dentists over the years to consider removing that particular implant and no one seemed interested until today when I reported it was moving. so glad to have it out. and so glad that there is new bone grafting techniques that make implants possible for people like me.

That's what made them call me to the back. The lady who cleaned my teeth was nice. I knew when they told me that I would have to do a consultation before I received the surgery and that they wouldn't do the surgery the same day that I shouldn't come back. When I came in for the consultation, I waited over 30 minutes again for them to talk to me for two minutes before sending me to billing. Why couldn't they look at my pictures then call me to let me know how much it would cost? So my insurance could pay for the extra appointment? I'm definitely going to find somewhere else to go. I left work early for this crap.
