Lisa is very rude! Has a complete attitude from the jump. Very unprofessional. Their staff feels that someone would be taking care of someone else without it being court ordered. Would not recommend ! Cancelled my appointment literally the day before because they "didn't have proper documentation" even though I sent in multiple court orders proving guardianship. Would not recommend at all. After the attitude I was given by multiple staff on multiple occasions. The inconveniences this has caused me & my dependent. I am happy I did not let them care for us .

The front staff has attitude. The xray technician was very professional and sweet. Dr. Mc Donald seemed he had a little bit of an authority complex. Didnt feel comfortable being seen by him. Wont be coming back.

My daughter had a consultation with Dr. McDonald. He is friendly and knowledgeable. We decided to go to another oral surgeon because of their shady billing practices. I have dual dental coverage and they still wanted to collect money up front. They should balance bill the difference to the secondary insurance and then send me a bill. Not everybody has $1000 laying around.

Absolutely perfect experience! Having my wisdom teeth extracted was not something I was very excited about... but if you have to get it done, i would definitely recommemd going to McDonald Oral Surgery! Dr. Mc Donald was very thorough, professional, and is great at what he does! Prior to surgery, Dr. told me everything I needed to know and what to expect... the front office gave me an accurate estimate and was extremely organized! I wouldn't change a thing about my visits. Thanks Dr. McDonald and staff!!
