All three of my children had their wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Koo at Piney Point. The youngest just had his follow-up with Dr. Koo. We first came to Dr. Koo nine years ago when my daughter needed oral surgery. He was very responsive to questions and issues then, and nothing has changed in the practice since then in that regard. His staff give detailed instructions for post-surgical care so you know how to take care of yourself when you leave their office. read more

I received a tooth extraction here last year by Dr. Koo. The office staff were ok, some friendlier than others, except the woman who handled billing was rude. The wait time is very long, so don't expect your time to be valued by them, and they know it because they have timers on the door. The office could use some updating as well. At our consultation, Dr. Koo was accommodating and supportive of the plan we had created, however upon my second visit he completely backtracked and changed the plan. I do not prefer anyone but an anesthesiologist to be put to sleep and will never use a dental provider as one again. The IV bag hung from a string in the ceiling, the surgical suite was cold and dark and I had to reconfirm several times which tooth we were removing. They were very cold and not personable after surgery either. The days that followed were terrible.. I called a few times to inquire about some recovery questions and was met with disrespect like I was an inconvenience to the staff. I also had to wait over an hour or more for my post op appts, and spent MAYBE 10 mins with Dr. Koo when he finally came in. The surgical site is still not the best. Overall, He was very dismissive and seemed very distant after surgery, I'm not sure if he even desires to provide good care or just wants you in and out.. I did not return for the implant and will not. Always do your due diligence when looking for any kind of healthcare professional, it will save you a lot of mistreatment. read more

Exceptional competence, experience, and compassion. Unbelievably talented. Dr. Koo is an oral surgeons' surgeon. There is no better. read more

Teeth removal was quick and painless. Follow-up care was explained. Excellent dentist.

The wait time was extremely long, and I received no updates or notifications throughout. This made the experience very frustrating.

Highly recommend. I hope I never have to get oral surgery again... but if I do, I will certainly be going back. Made it comfortable throughout the whole process and made it easy. read more

Everything and everyone was wonderful. Had two teeth extracted, bone buildup, and posts. Highly recommend Dr Koo!

This doctor is dishonest & a crook! He tried to charge an elderly woman over $7k to pull a tooth claiming it was infected & needed surgery and an implant! She got s second opinion and DID NOT need to have tooth removed. Do not trust this surgeon!!! read more

Dr. Steve Koo saved me from terrible complications I had with a surgery with a different doctor. I came to Dr. Koo with intense pain and bleeding which was being horribly mismanaged by the doctor that did my tooth extraction, bone graft and sinus lift. Dr. Koo saw me the next day and diagnosed the true source of my pain and got me the right treatment to control the infection and dry socket complications I was having caused by a different doctor. I should have chosen Dr. Koo for my original surgery but I did not know any better. Now I do know the difference and would only trust Dr. Koo for my future procedures. He is not only so kind and empathetic but he is an honest and skilled surgeon. The office is also very modern with state of the art equipment which is indicative of the premier care you will receive here. Save yourself a lot of pain and grief by choosing Dr. Koo from the beginning. read more

Efficient and pain free service by Dr Koo!! Would definitely recommend if you need teeth removed.

In summary: Very good oral surgeon. Office organization/communication/handling of nonstandard circumstances is lacking. My partner was sent to Dr. Koo via referral from our regular dentist to have two wisdom teeth removed. The procedure itself was quick and efficient, and Dr. Koo is clearly well-practiced and knowledgeable, so we were well-satisfied by that -- which is the main thing, of course. However, our experience with the office overall left some things to be desired. At the appointment for the initial evaluation, we were not seen until over two hours past our scheduled appointment, including an hour of being left in an exam room with no communication from the staff. (When we hit 7:30pm with no word, I began to worry that everyone had gone home and forgotten about us! And, really, I felt bad for the staff that they were being kept so late. They seemed very tired.) The doctor also originally prescribed a pain medication my partner is allergic to, despite the allergy being listed on his paperwork, among other points of confusion regarding his medications. It took far too much back-and-forth with the front desk before we finally got everything straightened out, resulting in more than 24 hours of postsurgical misery for my partner, despite attempting to communicate the issue to them both before and after the surgery. read more

I guess when you are dealing with people having a DENTAL EMERGENCY you do not have to ensure that front office staff have good customer service and are respectful to clients. I am sitting here writing a review in pain, knowing that I will will have to go the entire weekend without seeing a dentist because the older woman at the front desk was extremely rude. I had an appointment 6pm on a Friday and had new medical and dental so I did not have a physical card. This lady did not want to hear anything and could not do anything with out an insurance card!!!! She cannot look up anything or give me time to try and get the digital card. I was on the phone with my wife, who was trying to download the card and send it to me. In the middle of this she called me to the desk and before I could get to the window yelled "so you dont have any insurance?" HIPPA TRAINING PLEASE?????? Then she said in the rudest tone " So what do you want me to do? I can reschedule you next Wednesday" Keep in mind at this point I had already given her my medical card. To which her response was " Well sir, you ARE here for a dental procedure" As a grown man with a wife, kids and a Master's degree I would never have figured that I went to the dentist for a dental procedure.My wife hearing this on the phone was appalled. KEEP IN MIND THAT I WAS INITIALLY RECIEVED BY A YOUNGER LADY WHO INSTRUCTED ME TO TEXT MY INSURANCE CARD TO A PHONE NUMBER (WHICH IS WHAT I WAS DOING)AND THIS WOMAN CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND STARTED TO BARK AT ME.I was still trying to see the dentist and was downloading the app to get my card which takes like 5 minutes. She said that she had to reschedule, I explained that my wisdom tooth broke and I could not wait 5 days to get an evaluation. SHE DID NOT CARE AND HAD ABSOLUTELY NO EMPATHY. THERE WAS NOTHING SHE COULD DO. At this point I thanked her for her time and walked out the office. An hour later she called me while I was still driving home as I DROVE MORE THAN AN HOUR FOR THIS APPOINTMENT!!!!, trying to reschedule me for Monday. Probably on Friday evenings they just piss clients off so they get to go home early. I guess demand for dental surgery is inelastic when it comes to bad customer service. I also figure that this practice is doing so well that they do not need my or my insurance company's business. I guess someone with PPO insurance, 4 wisdom teeth to take out and a DENTAL EMERGENCY is not their type of customer. I guess the owners can afford front office staff costing them thousands in lost revenue. But what do I know according to this lady I dod int even know I was at the dentist for a dental procedure. read more

Dr. Koo and his team are excellent. I've had a lot of dental complications in the past, and a lot of treatment from a number of different doctors. Needing an unexpected extraction was stressful but Piney Point made it as easy and smooth as it could be. They got me in quickly and advocated for me to my insurance. The procedure was extremely comfortable, smooth, and expertly done. I was back on my feet same day. Everyone was friendly and professional. As strange as it is to spontaneously recommend oral surgeons to friends and family, I've been doing exactly that. Thank you to Dr. Koo and his staff!! read more

Consultation for Potential oral (dental) surgery; Mis or over treatment potentially; Front desk and nurse are friendly but doctor was cold. read more

I have never seen this doc, but this review above would have made me go there. We are human and medical errors used to be the #3 cause of injury and death. Huh? Still in treatment, I had the opposite. Absolutely no protocol in place. The board things I'm stupid, but they made a mistake writing to me. An interesting mistake. I have found out more than I wanted to know about dentist, so please find good, valid reviews and look up their license. Very true review. read more

Dr.Koo reached out to me and personally apologized for the mishap that occurred, even sent flowers. Not many doctors are willing to go out of their way to do that, definitely regained some confidence in him. Still, mishap shouldn't have happened but some days can be rough and I understand that. I am more than okay moving forward for with him to continue being my oral surgeon as long as he'll have me. read more

We were referred to Piney Point Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery by our regular dentist because my daughter's wisdom teeth needed to be extracted. We came for the initial consultation and that went well. We made the surgery appointment and the whole process went very well also. She was provided with ample time to recover from the initial surgery in the office and the oral surgeon came in to check up on her and to let us know there were no major issues encountered during the procedure. All of the medications were prescribed ahead of time and pre-purchased so that she can ease into the recovery period without undue pain and discomfort. The staff at the facility were very helpful and friendly. We are very appreciative that everyone was knowledgeable and the doctor did excellent work on my daughter's extractions. I would recommend this facility to others who required this type of surgery. We are extremely satisfied with the outcome. read more

Dr. Koo did a fabulous job on my front tooth implant. After multiple failed attempts to save the tooth with other providers, I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Koo to see what needed to be done for a permanent solution. He was able to do a CT scan in the office, and gave me a treatment plan all at my first visit. I appreciated the fact that Dr. Koo was honest about the prognosis of my tooth, after spending so much trying to save it. Now I have a beautiful dental implant and no longer have to worry about repeated infections. Thank you Dr. Koo!!!! read more

I was recommended by my dentist to see Dr. Koo for a consultation for my wisdom teeth. I had been dealing with awful pain for sometime. I had my consultation and was all set up for my surgery the following Monday. Everyone made me feel so comfortable since I was nervous but overall it was a great and smooth experience. I highly recommend Piney Point and definitely will be back if any needed surgeries are needed. read more

Great customer service and professional staff made my visit pleasant. Scheduling future appointments is easy. Thank you.

Piney Point Oral was truly a 10/10 experience. Went in expecting to be in the worst pain after wisdom teeth extraction only to have very minimal soreness and the best possible recovery experience. The care and customer service was great from the front desk, to the assistants, and everyone involved in the process. Dr. Koo was very knowledgeable and made sure to explain things thoroughly. I truly don't think I could've chosen a better surgeon. read more

Best oral surgeon ever Dr Koo extracted 3 teeth and when I say painless and smooth I mean it. Of course healing pain after is normal but he made it as pleasant as surgery can get. I would definitely give him 10/10 stars if I could. 100% recommend. read more

I visited Dr.Koo to do implant and wisdom teeth pulled. Didn't know that everything can do it within an hour. Scared that it might have pain during recovery. Then it was nothing to worry that everything was fine. Good to have Dr.Koo who I can trust read more

My experience with Piney Point was extremely positive. Dr. Koo checked me out and everything looked good. I would recommend this practice to anyone needing their services. I will be back in 2 years for my next checkup. Thank you Dr. Koo!!! read more

I needed an implant because I broke a tooth that was waiting for a crown. I've had an implant before but it wasn't a memorable experience. My dentist recommended two oral surgeons that I could choose from and I'm SO glad that I came to see Dr Koo. Aside from the office, the professional office staff and the car service they use (yes, they can call you a professional car service after your procedure), I found Dr. Koo to be very kind and genuinely compassionate. As a physician myself, I highly recommend him and his staff without reservation and will definitely come back if the need arises! read more

This is the third year I visit this office and I am consistently impressed by its competence, so much so that I now want to use this location for my general dentist. The office is clean, the wait times are not long, the staff is friendly and accommodating. Don't sleep on Piney Point. They're a great facility! read more

Dr.koo has don't surgery on me multiple times it's amazing how well him and his team are organized pricing with this office is usually better then competitors I did lots of research and actually experienced a tooth extraction he gave me a brochure that gave well instructions that told me how to properly take care of extraction and the service at the front desk is amazing I worked with Lucy she will break down exactly what you are paying for give you a nice little to go bag with all your information on what you need post services. WILL DEFINITELY COME BACK HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!! read more

I was initially referred to Piney Point by West Houston Dentistry. My dentist insisted that I should have my wisdom teeth (all four) removed within the next year, so they pointed me to Dr. Koo. Setting up the initial consultation was very easy, and I found the staff very helpful for that first visit. And for those who are reading this during the current pandemic, the staff will have you complete a COVID-19 form and take your temperature when you enter the waiting room. They also have distanced seating, just so waiting patients are not huddled together. Once my wisdom teeth extraction surgery was set, they provided all the helpful information needed to prepare for the surgery date. They even checked to see if I wanted to move the surgery to an earlier date, which was very nice. The surgery itself went well. Dr. Koo's assistants made sure that I was set and comfortable before the anesthesia was given, and I woke up with little pain in my jaw. Of course, the areas that were worked on were numb, but it was a lot better than what I had read online with other people's experiences with different places. I recently came back for the follow-up appointment, and it was quick and easy! Dr. Koo was able to review my progress since the surgery, and everyone was really positive about it. I'm definitely recommending Dr. Koo and his staff to anyone I know looking to have their wisdom teeth extracted. Thank you for the great experience! read more

I had surgery to remove all of my wisdom teeth, and I'm so glad I chose Piney Point. I wanted to be fully sedated for my procedure as my teeth were impacted, and the procedure went well and was not painful at all. My recovery has gone smoothly and I have not experienced any complications. Dr. Koo and his staff were very professional during the entire process and always answered any questions I had. Highly recommend! read more

I was recommended this oral surgical office through my dentist to get my wisdom teeth out. I had 3 appointments in total and I was satisfied with all. Every time I was there they were timely and efficient. Do note that they are normally a very busy spot. During my surgery, the nurses were kind and made me feel very comfortable going under. They even let me have my stuffed animal though the entire process. I recommend this office to those needing any oral care! read more

Piney Point Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery - Me out of oral surgery - Oral Surgeons Near Me - Houston, Texas

I had a horrible experience and would not recommend this practice or Dr. Koo. The excisional biopsy they did on my tongue caused permanent nerve damage and the development of a neuroma and mucocele. I have had to have multiple corrective procedures from their work. Bedside manner was also an issue and the day of my surgery I was left unattended after my procedure while folks ran around the office. read more

Rare combination of excellence, efficiency, and empathic care. Dr. Koo's skills are incredible and his front office shines. You will never think more highly of an oral surgery experience. read more

Dr. Koo did two inplants for my upper jaw. Dr.Koo's office assistant gave me an appointment in decent time. Dr Koo himself checked my candidacy and bone health of such implants and agreed to do two implants together on my request. The surgery was painless and well done. Then he called me back for checking the status. Even my insurance was well handled by their office. Overall I am very satisfied and would highly recommend Dr. Koo. read more

Very swift and professional for my wisdom tooth extractions! The entire process included a consultation, the surgery, and a post-op -- all were great experiences. Dr. Koo and the rest of the staff are very well versed in their practice and patient care. I'm extremely thankful for their great service! read more

Dr.Koo and his staff were amazing. I got 4 of my wisdom teeth removed and we were able to schedule an appointment as soon as possible. They provided proper after care treatment which made recovery comfortable. Follow up appointment and scheduling was made easy with them! I definitely recommend! read more

From setting up an appointment to our follow-up was a smooth process. The staffed showed professionalism and friendliness. My husband and I had our wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Koo If you're frightened to get your wisdom teeth removed, DON'T BE!! My husband and I experienced little to no pain after our procedure. I was prescribed Norco and didn't even have to take it. And the follow up literally took us less than 5 minutes. Would I recommended this office? MOST DEFINITELY! read more

I needed to get all four of my wisdom teeth extracted and was referred to this location by my dentist. It was a great experience! Dr. Koo and the other staff went above and beyond to ensure the best outcomes for the patients. They answered all my questions and gave ample instructions on how to care for myself post surgery. The actual surgery itself went fairly smoothly... got knocked out with anesthesia, and it was done within an hour. My favorite part was that the wait wasn't very long three out of three times I went to their office. One tip I suggest is to call in and ask for the price before you go in! Because they do have better doctors and better care, the price may be higher than most places, and your insurance might not cover it. read more

I was referred to Piney Point for my wisdom teeth extraction. I was anxiety at first and it turned out super good, Dr Koo is professional and the staff is friendly. I didn't get swollen after the surgery as I expected. I would like to recommend to others who consider wisdom teeth extraction surgery. read more
