    Zero stars if it was possible. I was very nervous about visiting this office due to the negative reviews (******), but I was hopeful my experience would be different. Unfortunately, I should have known better. This review specifically concerns Dr. ***** *********, the oral surgeon and owner. I do want to acknowledge that her staff was very kind, helpful, and supportive throughout my visit. I especially appreciate the nurse who was with me the entire time. She was incredibly informative, kind, and professional. However, my experience with Dr. ********* was disappointing. The negative reviews (******) are right. Dr. ********* did not speak to me before or after the surgery. She didnt even acknowledge my presence when she left the room. No How are you? or I hope you feel better, which are basic signs of human decency. I understand that some doctors prefer to focus on the procedure, who are in and out and just want to get the job done. Her behavior was downright rude and unprofessional. During the extraction of my four wisdom teeth and the stitching process, Dr. ********* was physically rough. She grabbed my jaw and pulled it down so forcefully that it caused significant pain. I was crying from the discomfort, especially when the numbing medicine wore off on the right side of my face. When I couldnt speak due to the pain, she yelled at me for flexing my face and insisted, nobody is even doing anything to you! At one point, when I slightly turned my head, she grabbed my jaw and forcefully directed my face back toward her, shouting at me to keep it still.I strongly advise anyone to avoid this office and save yourself unnecessary pain and distress on top of your already painful procedure. Dr. ********** behavior was unprofessional, disrespectful, and harsh. Its hard to believe shes unaware of her negative reviews ********* yet she continues to treat patients this way.
