I HIGHLY recommend Mr.Lutcavage to anyone who is looking for any wisdom teeth to be removed. I am writing this one week after my surgery of having all 4 wisdom teeth out, and I'm in no pain. The front office was nice and clean and the receptionist was welcoming and helpful.

I had one wisdom tooth removed. I am a senior citizen and had all of my wisdom teeth so this was a new experience. I cannot say enough good things about the staff. No pain was involved at any time. The nurse that put the i.v. in was an expert, assistants were calming and friendly and Dr. Lutcavage was everything you would ever want in an oral surgeon. Also, front desk staff were most helpful and informative. When you add up all of these you have a wonderful staff from start to finish and what I was very fearful of was almost a pleasant experience.

Poor communication skills from the receptionist. For some odd reason, I wasn't informed that I would need to reschedule an appointment due to the providers personal circumstance. I found out that my appointment needed to be rescheduled due to me calling to verify the time of my appointment. In addition, a courtesy reminder for my appointment was not exercised, truthfully, I'm over this place.
