Dr. Jelic and the team at the Jelic center were wonderful. Everyone I spoke to was knowledgeable about the procedure and able to answer all of my questions. I had all four wisdom teeth removed, and this was my first surgical experience. They were extremely professional and friendly and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Jelic and his entire staff are outstanding. I have experienced three surgical procedures at the Jelic center and I have had an outstanding experience each time. I can t say enough about how Dr. Jelic and his staff worked together to make my visits absolutely pain free. Today, I needed to have an infected molar removed . I had excellent team workbook and I was aware of what was being done and was not experiencing any pain.I highly recommend Dr. Jelic and his staff. They are the very best!

I would give Dr. Jelic and his staff more stars if I could. Every aspect of my experience with Dr. Jelic's practice was first class. Everyone I had contact with from the office administration to the nurses and other assistants and the doctor himself left me feeling comfortable and confident I was in good hands. The oral surgery I had went smoothly (and painlessly!). The doctor followed up with a phone call later in the day to make sure everything was okay. The results of the procedure was exactly what I'd hoped for. I would recommend Dr. Jelic to anyone.

Dr. Jelic was great! Very professional and friendly, he took the time to answer all my questions, and I felt that they were very thorough. All of the staff was also very friendly and I never felt like I was inconveniencing anyone.The only reason I didn't give the last star was that there were some scheduling issues or miscommunications a couple times. But for the actual reason for going there in the first place, everything was 5 stars.

I am most appreciative of Dr Jelic and his staff's most thoughtful care- As an ICU physician, I was particularly thankful for Dr Jelic and his staff kindness, professionalism, and expert care. Dr Jelic is both a physician and dentist, and his expertise and management were most appreciated. The office staff was helpful and kind, and the office was in my view a state of the art oral surgical center. Again thanks to all.

My experience at Dr. Jelics was a great one. The team is so amazing, kind, and helpful. Dr. Jelic himself is very informative and really helps the patient understand exactly what will happen with their procedure.

Dr. Jelic is very professional along with his entire staff. I had 3 wisdom teeth taken out, it was a smooth process and they made me feel very comfortable. If you're looking for a great worry free experience definitely go there!

Dr. Jelic and his team did an exceptional job. The office was sparkling and all COVID-19 precautions were followed at all times. They were great at communicating expectations and follow up care. Highly recommended.

Dr. Jelic is a medical artistnot only an oral surgeon but also a plastic surgeon. He took extensive time to explain treatment options for my snoring and mild sleep apnea. He is knowledgable, answered all my questions and concerns, and offered far more solutions than I imagined. He also has a calm demeanor and speaks with confidence which is assuring to me that he is the expert and most qualified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon in Raleigh, Durham and Chapel Hill.

Dr. Jelic and his staff were phenomenal. I had a fairly difficult wisdom teeth removal and I am so glad I chose someone with Dr. Jelics expertise. All of the nurses and staff that I interacted with were very helpful and friendly! I am also diabetic and they did a great job making sure to safely accommodate my condition during the procedure. I definitely recommend this practice!

Had a lengthy and difficult procedure at Dr. Jelic's office last week. The entire staff could not have been more knowledgeable, helpful, professional, and considerate. The procedure made me very anxious, and everyone worked hard to alleviate my anxiety. I was made to feel like I was the only patient for the day. Nobody looks forward to visiting the oral surgeon's office. That said, I can't imagine having been in better hands that day. Thanks to the entire staff!!

We had a tremendously positive experience with my son's wisdom teeth removal with Dr. Jelic! The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Jelic is talented and personable. The procedure went quickly and smoothly! I highly recommend this practice.

The dr and nurses did such a wonderful job here. I was so nervous to get my wisdom teeth out and they made sure I was educated and comfortable through the entire process. I would go back for all my dental surgery needs 100%.

Both my teens had wisdom teeth removed here. Everyone on staff is warm and welcoming. Dr. Jelic is personable and professional. He made sure both my teens and myself got any questions answered. On the day of the surgeries, everyone was cheerful, helpful and supportive. I didn't have the best experience myself getting wisdom teeth out when I was a teen so it was wonderful to give a much better memory to my children.

Every single person there was so warm and welcoming. I've never had surgery like this before so I was nervous and they helped me feel calm. They made me as comfortable as possible. It went super quickly and was complete painless. They went above and beyond for us. They are the best! 10/10

Dr. Jelic and his team are wonderful! After wanting a lip lift for a while I finally did it, and I couldn't be more pleased! Dr. Jelic's work is flawless. It's been 3 months since my surgery. The results are better than I expected: my top teeth show improved significantly, overall my lips feel more proportioned to me now. Everyone at the office is friendly and caring. Dr. Jelic is amazing, very honest about the results you can expect and very professional. I am so happy I found this office! Highly recommend, you'll be in great hands.

As a patient I was taken care of very well. I showed up and had the procedure without any complications and it has healed very well in the past two days. Between the service and how well it was done Id highly recommend.

Caring staff and prompt careMy daughter had all four wisdom teeth pulled by Dr Jelic. He is very prompt and professional with his care. When I was concerned after hours he was very caring and polite. LOVED his staff. Everyone was friendly and attentive her my daughter's needs. Will use Dr Jelic for my next child.

My daughter had 4 wisdom teeth removed on Thursday and was at the lake on Friday riding the jet ski with friends she never skipped a beat. Great experience with Dr. Jelic and his team. Highly recommend

I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Dr. Jelic and his team are the most professional people I have ever worked with. I had to get my wisdom teeth removed due to them being majorly impacted on the lower level, I had a lot of fear and anxiety from the horror stories of complications that could occur.Dr. Jelic eased my mind and told me everything would be fine, after surgery, I was having trouble getting the bleeding to stop from the sockets, and Dr. Jelic came into his office late night and stayed with me for 2 hours while he fixed the problem and got the bleeding to stop.Dr. Jelic is professional, friendly and ultimately incredible at his job. I couldn't recommend this place enough and thank you so much Dr. Jelic for helping me when I was in need!

I was very nervous leading up to getting my wisdom teeth removed, but the staff at Dr. Jelic's was there to calm my nerves. The day of went extremely smooth and recovery has gone well. The best part was if I needed them at any time after surgery, the staff made themselves available.

Had a really great experience with wisdom teeth extraction. Everyone in the office is friendly, caring, and extremely professional. The waiting area for family during surgery was very comfortable as well. Would gladly choose this office again, but hopefully I will never have to

My son had his wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Jelic recently. The entire procedure was over in about 40 minutes and my sons healing process was remarkable. He only needed ibuprofen for pain relief and was back to normal in one day.

Excellent practitioner and office. We found their care to be extremely patient-centered from the person answering the phone and scheduling to the nurses and the physician. They take their time, are compassionate in their care, and responsive to a patient's needs. We'd highly recommend their medical practice and can understand why our dentist recommended Dr. Jelic.

Patient care was great! The atmosphere and kind employees at this office provide a good sense of comfort throughout the surgical and recovery processes. Highly recommend... especially for wisdom teeth removal!

Was in a lot of pain caused by dental problems and Doctor Jelics office was able to fit me in right away. The whole staff was very good and I was able to reach Doctor Jelic after hours with questions and concerns, he even called me back to follow up the next day.

I had two wisdom teeth removed from the right side of my mouth and the procedure was much less painful than I expected. Virtually no memory of the actual procedure after having the IV sedation and the majority of the pain was gone after the first 6-8 hours. After day 1, I would compare it to having a minor mouth sore. The swelling went down after day 4 and no I feel virtually normal. Thanks to Dr. Jelic and his staff!

My experience from beginning to end was very positive. The office staff and Dr. Jelic are committed to excellence. My procedure went smoothly and the office followed up with me to make sure I was progressing well. I would highly recommend this practice.

Dr. Jelic and his staff of highly qualified assistants we're top notch in the removal of all 4 of my 3rd molars. The process was was easier and less traumatic than I imagined.It was barely an hour! I only used over the counter pain medication for 24 hrs and ice packs. It's been 2 weeks since my surgery. I've had my follow up with Dr. Jelic and his wonderful staff. I was guided through the process of cleaning and caring for my wounds and continue to follow the prescribed post-op instructions. I'm not a gum chewer but i'm following the letter of the law as prescribed. I continue to clean and care for my extraction sites and remain pain free.

Thank you to Dr. Jelic and his staff. Everyone, from the moment you walk in, is so kind and helpful. The atmosphere is tranquil and that is very much appreciated. My dentist recommended Dr. Jelic and I'm glad she did.

I came to Dr. Jelic to get my wisdom teeth and 2 baby teeth removed. At first I was scared but the staff did a very good job at telling me exactly what would be done and how I would need to prepare for it. They even went the extra mile when there was a miscommunication about what teeth needed to be pulled during my wisdom teeth removal, they offered to remove said teeth free of charge. I'm really thankful for them and would recommend anyone that needs any sort of teeth removal to Dr.Jelic.

I would highly recommend Dr. Jelic and his team they are all very professional. Dr. Jelic did a dental implant almost six years ago and he continues to do yearly checkups to make sure everything is ok. Thanks so much Dr. Jelic and team.

The staff was extremely friendly and made the process easy. They explained everything to me to help me understand the whole process and made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. I would highly recommend using this practice.

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Jelic. I was very nervous, but he and the staff were understanding, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend Dr. Jelic.

Hey there, I am so Pleased to say that Dr.Jeffrey Jelic, and his Team did an Outstanding job on my Mouth. They made me feel very Relaxed and Welcomed. I would recommend them to Any and Everyone for your Surgical procedures. If I have to ever get anymore Surgical work done on my mouth, I will be coming back again.

Dr. Jelic and his staff were so understanding, patient, and professional! I was very uneasy about having my wisdom teeth removed and they treated me with the utmost respect and empathy. From the times I called to the actual day of the procedure I felt like the staff there genuinely cared and did everything to ensure my comfort. I recommend Dr. Jelic's office for anyone looking for oral surgery!

Dr. Jelic and his team are very dedicated to doing the best work and making each person feel special. His training and professionalism, along with the personal and warm environment, make him the obvious choice if you should need an oral surgeon!

Very professional. Scheduling surgery was easy, everything went smoothly and I had very little pain compared to what I have heard from other people who had their wisdom teeth removed. Almost no pain after the day of my operation and only a little jaw soreness the following days. 11/10 in my book

If you are wondering why I only gave Dr. Jelic 4 stars, I only reserve 5 stars for truly awesome experiences. That being said, I have no complaints about the care I received from Dr. Jelic and company. My wisdom teeth removal went very smoothly and the whole staff was very accommodating. There is a great book in the lobby called 'Earth from Space'. On a slightly different note, I have always wondered why doctors and dentist offices are always so sterile looking. The fake plants, the generic art, the magazines/coffee table books. They should jazz it up. Maybe sell coffee or merchandise in the lobby. I would consider buying a Functional & Aesthetic Facial Surgery: Dr. Jeffrey Jelic sweatshirt. Or better yet a jersey of some sort. Maybe have a game of twister in the waiting room for the patients, I don't know i'm just spit balling. But overall, a very comfortable experience.

I was undergoing a complex treatment at Dr. Jalic's clinic which lasted many months. They were amazing and very professional each time not mentioning that the outcome was a full success. Its impressive how precise and careful they were in performing each task, the recovery period was quick and smooth. The equipment they use seems state of the art including 3D scanners/x-rays. I could only wish to have access to such a great doctor before.

Dr. Jelic and his staff are great. From the first phone call to get a consult about wisdom teeth and all the way through the post op appt. I even got a phone call the evening of the extraction to see how I was doing. Very professional and I highly recommend! Thank you, Dr. Jelic and staff, for making this daunting process so comforting. You can really tell y'all care about your patients.

I cannot say enough about my positive experience with Dr. Jelic and his staff. I feel fortunate to be in the Jelic 'family.' This highest appraisal is based on 36 years working in a dental environment, currently as a professor in a dental school.

All personnel were very polite and knowledgeable. I was seen at the appointed time. I never had to wait. The facilities were very clean and well kept. My treatment was very professional. I could not have seen a better oral surgeon.

I got my wisdom teeth pulled out and Dr. Jelic and his staff were outstanding from the initial contact to the very end. Dr. Jelic answered all my questions and made sure to explain everything in detail before having the procedure done. The surgery went extremely well. Once home Dr. Jelic called to make sure I was doing OK. I did end up having an infection a week after the procedure and it happened to be the day after Christmas when Dr. Jelic had the dat off but he still answered his phone and made sure I was taken care of and I was very thankful for his willingness to help. I cannot recommend Dr. Jelic enough!

It was truly wonderful. Dr Jelic and staff and his front desk finance cordinater/customer service agent Georgia were all very friendly, caring and accommodating. They were very proficient and professional. I felt so relieved and well taken care of after my procedure and follow up checkups. If anyone needs dental care I say they are among the best in the business. I recommend them highly. So glad I chose them.Sincerely, Cheryl Banks

Wisdom teeth removal is probably the most standard procedure in oral surgery however, I had never been sedated before and still found the thought of it nerve wrecking. From my initial consult to the follow up Dr. Jelic and his staff put all those feelings at bay. I mean they are supercalifragilisticexpialidocious GOOD at making you feel comfortable and relaxed. I wish I could give them more than just 5 stars because they truly deserve it.

Dr. Jelic and staff are great-highly recommend! The office is comfortable, the staff is helpful, courteous, sympathetic, and so knowledgeable. They have been wonderful from the beginning and I will refer them to friends and family. Great practice!1 Comment

Incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and gave me all the attention and care needed to get through my operation and treatment. Very happy to have chosen Dr. Jelic's center and would be happy to do so again.

I had my wisdom teeth removed at the Jelic center, and I could not be happier with my experience. Dr. Jelic, Kelly, Georgia, and the whole team at the Jelic Center are top-notch. Dr. Jelic is an exceptionally talented surgeon. Further, Dr. J and the team provided both thoughtful and thorough care. After clearly outlining my treatment plan, Dr. Jelic swiftly and skillfully extracted my wisdom teeth--despite being almost 30 years old, I had zero complications and a quick recovery--all thanks to the Jelic Center's wonderful treatment and post-op care. Great doctor; great people; great care; great environment. Highly recommended these folks!

Quick turnaround time with minimal wait time for procedures. Wisdom teeth extraction was smooth, with minimal to no pain experienced post-operatively. Would highly recommend wisdom teeth extraction here. I was able to get in for a consultation within one week of calling, and my procedure was scheduled three weeks following the consultation. In network with my insurance and very close to my home.

Throughout the years I've been helped by a large number of dental surgeons and regular dentists, across 5 countries I lived in. I have to say, by any means, Dr. Jelic is the best doctor I ever went to, no hesitations, no mistakes, no risks taken. He is very knowledgeable in his field, very compassionate, and extremely thorough and careful in every aspect of the procedures he performs. His crew is second to none in the world, every single person at Jelic Center is world class professional, and the whole team makes the nicest people you would dream to take care of you. Highly recommend.

Definitely a 5-star experience. Dr Jelic extracted my broken tooth and replaced it with an implant. Dr Jelic is highly skilled, his staff is very knowledgeable, everyone made me feel comfortable. They provided clear post-surgery instructions and I had a speedy recovery with no swelling. Also, the office environment is calming, especially the music they played during the procedure (not the typical dental office music). Highly recommend!

Dr Jelic was recommended to me by an endodontist I was currently seeing for severe pain in two teeth. My endodontist performed surgery on one tooth and recommended Dr Jelic to extract the other tooth. The extraction and replacement procedures went perfectly, there were no problems or complications, Dr Jelic and his very responsive staff were very communicative and instructional on my role in these procedures. I only needed pain medicine the night of the day of the extraction, and then Tylenol for a day and then no discomfort. I would absolutely see Dr Jelic again for any similar procedures and give him my highest recommendation.

Dr Jelic and team provide exceptional care. Everyone from reception to provider made my experience comfortable and stress-free. In my opinion, there are not enough glowing words in the dictionary to truly extend my gratitude and their professional/personal level of care.

I went here to get 8 of my teeth extracted in one sitting; 4 wisdom and 4 molars. Everyone that attended to me from the manager to the nurse to the Dr., were very courteous and made me very comfortable. They prepared me well in advance on what to expect so I could plan my pre and post extraction days. Dr. Jelic personally called me the evening of the extraction to check on how I was doing and made himself available on call, if there was an emergency before the next checkup. I highly recommend the Jelic Center for professional and quality care

Dr. Jelic and his staff are phenomenal. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable, from my wisdom teeth extraction consultation to my post-op appointment. My recovery was surprisingly speedy and painless. I did not swell, and I was back to normal by day four. If you are looking for an office that takes excellent care of their patients, Dr. Jelic's office is the best place to go.

Dr. Jelic removed my lower 2 wisdom teeth. He and his staff were amazing! He even called me later that evening to check on me. I'm really big on customer service, so that simple gesture made my day.
