5 /5 Mag L.: I will update review after my wisdom teeth removal appointment. Getting scheduled was a bit of a chore because the semester just started and staffing was low. I followed the number on the line for wisdom teeth removal and waited forever only to google and find another phone number for the program coordinator who referred me to the screening option to get scheduled because an xray was needed I guess.
Everyone i spoke with on the call was incredibly friendly. They told me to come to the 6th floor, check-in, go to 5th for x-ray pay there, and then go back to the 6th floor. i should have confirmed address when scheduling because they have a lot of buildings. The location I have my appointments at, the physical address is 3000 Gaston Avenue. Much closer to the Dart Station than the address I am leaving review on for the dental school. I scheduled an early appointment in the day thinking I would have to wait forever to be seen because of all of the reviews, but when i got there they sent me to 5th floor. Thankfully i was early too and got an xray right away and was sent to 6th floor and made it there at 9am sharp, my appt time.
Paperwork took about 15 minutes to fill out. I returned it, the lady at front checked me in, sat down, and my name was called. All of the staff I worked with was incredibly friendly.
They operate like a big machine. The doctor who saw me said he may not be the doctor who works on me. Whoever is available for the time slots they take the baton and do the work. He said he would try to be here for it and or if I didnt like him he can ask another doctor to see me. LMAO He was funny, nice, very elaborate, and made sure to explain everything about the process and what is happening to my teeth, gum, and face (partially swollen) and asked if I had any other questions and then I was off. I was out and back at the train station by 10am. Crazy.
I have to remind myself I am impoverished and am so blessed to find an afforable place to get my wisdom teeth removed without medical or dental insurance.
Fees associated:
Patient appt is $80
xray $54
Wisdom tooth removal is $120 per tooth
Second appointment was scheduled at 8am. Doors do not open until 7:45am. Front doors happened to be broken so entry was via the parking garage, essy to find. I arrived before front desk staffing, but was first to be checked-in after payment for the surgery.
The appointment itself was super easy. I was out by 8:30. Dr. Green was the doctor I dealt with both times and he said it was an easy extraction and only estimated to be 15 minutes and that was exactly right. Very thorough, well informed, and overall great experience. I highly recommend this place.
