I needed an emergency molar removal, as I had a large abscess under the tooth. I needed it removed immediately as I have a Bio Mechanical heart valve where the infection from the abscess could have spread to the heart valve and ended my life. I contacted several other Oral surgeons who would not see me for at least a week. After contacting Dr. O'Briens office they made room for me for that day and did an amazing job in removing the tooth along with the abscess. Their staff was very professional and attentive and Dr. O'Brien is an amazing surgeon. I would recommend them in a heart beat to anyone that needed a top shelf oral surgeon.

Very professional. Did a superb job explaining the procedure of molar extraction and followed through with a difficult but pain free procedure. His two assistants were part of the team and awesome.

I had my wisdom teeth out pretty late (late 30's) and this group was great. Very professional and accommodating, and I had some very strong nerves. I don't believe pulling teeth is something you want to repeat, but if I have to I'll be back here.

The Doctor was very kind, welcoming and professional, his assistants however are very short snippy and rude the attitudes of his assistants ruined the experience of the office completely.... they are dealing with nervous patients and the last thing they need is to be treated in a cold and abrasive manner. As a nurse for 10+ years I've never seen a patient of family treated so poorly!!!! Our family will never return to this practice.

I can't say enough about our experience with Dr. O'Brien and his staff. My son has his wisdom teeth removed and the Dr. and Nurses made a very nervous child and a more nervous mom feel very relaxed. The procedure was explained to make us feel relaxed and everything went exactly as explained. The kindness shown to both of us especially my son by the Nurses was amazing. We received a follow up phone call to check on his status after the procedure. I would recommend Dr. O'Brien to all of my friends.
