Provided by Doctor.comThis was my first dental procedure outside of getting a cavity filled when I was 13. I also have a really bad anxiety disorder. Dr. Egolum and the staff were absolutely amazing at accommodating me. They made sure I was comfortable and my anxiety was greatly reduced. The entire staff was helpful and friendly. I will be back for future procedures and highly recommend Dr. Egolum.

Provided by Doctor.comEverything was easy. This was a new dentist for me. I needed extraction. Everyone was very kind and helpful (Wendy, Candace, Ashley). Dr. E explained everything and was very patient and kind. Thank you.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Egolum was friendly, clear in explanation and optimistic/upbeat about the process. The extraction was quick, and healing was pretty smooth compared to what I've heard from others. Overall, if I had to get teeth extracted, it's hard to imagine doing better.

Provided by Doctor.comDr Egolum is amazing! Least traumatic, least painful, smoothest recovery from oral surgery I have ever had. I needed no pain meds after the procedure, and inflammation at the site was minimal; all signs of very deft surgical techniques. He also has a great bedside manner. I highly recommend him.

Provided by Doctor.comDr. Egolum discussed everything that was going to happen before starting anything. He then talked me through the procedure step by step. i did not believe it was finished so quickly. The tech/assistant to the doctor, Candace, review my post op very quickly and invited me to call her back if I had questions before 4 p.m.
I am delighted to have the surgery behind me.

Provided by Doctor.comFirst time having dental surgery and Dr. Egolum is the absolute BEST in the business! I had NO PAIN at all after all 4 wisdom teeth were extracted. He was patient and understood that I was nervous, so it made the process less complicated. I appreciate his expertise in the surgery and did not have any doubt that he knew what he was doing. THANK YOU DR. EGOLUM!!

Provided by Doctor.comThey had followed up with me via email and text to ensure I was aware of appointments in which I was appreciative. I am very satisfied with my experience and have had a quick healing time.
