My husband went for evaluation for a root canal. The endodontist was excellent, however, at no point, were we made aware that we had to pay $1000 before leaving the clinic. I spoke to the woman myself who offered no payment options or apology, and told me that we "should have been made aware." Very disappointed with this experience.

I had a root canal done this morning and was truly impressed with the Endodontist and his staff! After reading the many five star reviews, I knew I would be in good hands. I always have been fearful of dental treatments and I have to admit my nerves were getting the best of me on the drive to my appointment. Honestly it was nothing to fear :-) I did not feel anything and was virtually pain-free. It only took around 30 minutes for the procedure and I was in an out within an hour!

The quickest dental procedure I've ever had. Quick and painless!! I hope I don't need anymore root canals, but if I need one or know someone that does, I'm sending them to Pinehurst Endodontics!

A visit this week to Pinehurst Endodontics left me wishing that Jim would become a general practice doctor. From the moment you step into the office, you know you made the right choice. The lobby is beautifully appointed and clean, the receptionist Trinity is bright and cheerful, and the office is meticulously clean. After a quick check-in process, you are moved back to the procedure room. Outside the wall sized window, you peer on a wooded area with a bird (and squirrel) feeder. On the wall above the window is a huge monitor showing x-rays of your teeth, and Jim walks you through what needs to be done. The procedure was quick and absolutely painless. I left almost hoping that someday I might need another root canal. :-) Dr. Joe West, University of North Carolina

If you ever need a root canal, this is the place! After my first root canal, I had told the office that I would drive whatever distance needed to come back here. Well it turns out, not long after, I needed another root canal. It was the same wonderful experience the second time around. Here's to hoping I don't need another root canal. However, if I do, you better believe I'll be back here.

Dr. Corcoran and his dental assistant Ashley are truly incredible. Having a root canal can be intimidating but they not only made it painless, but somehow a relaxing experience. They are kind, attentive, and most importantly extremely good at what they do.

I really can't stand having dental work done, like most people. I have had a couple of procedures taken care of here now, and I have been thoroughly impressed. The customer service is excellent, and the care is top notch. When I or my family have anything that needs to be taken care of this will be the place we go, and I will have no apprehension about it. The staff are amazing and extremely helpful, and the doctor is professional, personable, courteous, gentle, and best of all, quick. I can't say enough about how great this practice is.

Who knew that a root canal could be virtually painless? Filling out the initial paperwork online was simple and convenient, Dr. Corcoran and his staff were so friendly and caring, and the procedure itself was extremely fast and straightforward. I'm awarding bonus points for the beautiful decor inside the office and for the lovely view of the courtyard from the procedure room.

Dr. Cochran and his staff saved my vacation. I needed two emergency root canals and the team at Pinehurst endo got me in and treated in no time. The office is beautiful and remarkably clean and the staff works extremely well together. I hated getting a root canal but this was the spa experience of root canals. No pain whatsoever during the less than 1.5 hour procedure. He's like the Mavrick of endodontists. Don't go anywhere else. Visit Dr. Cochran if you are in pain and want kind folks to caringly walk you through the experience. Great aftercare as well. Very prompt. Thank you all!

I had a root cannel on April 24, 2019. From the time I walked into the office until I left I felt like I was their only patient. They are so nice and professional. They talked to me and explained what I needed to do after my procedure. Dr. Corcoran introduced himself. I appreciated him explaining what happened with my tooth that caused me to need a root cannel. He was so gentle that except a very little pinch the numbing shots didn't hurt. It may sound strange but I was impressed by his concentration and speed that himself and his assistant worked. Even checking out was a nice experience. I can't say enough how nice they were where. If I ever need anything else done (hopefully not) but I would definitely go to Dr. Corcoran. I recommend to anyone in need of a root cannel to see Dr. Corcoran.

I came to Pinehurst Endodontics with what you would call an emergency. I was referred by my dentist and was in pain. I had already been to an appointment that day and I have three young kids who were in childcare. They were so quick and helpful knowing I had tight time constraints. We are military and Dr. Cocoran is a veteran which is awesome. He completely took care of me. My tooth is fixed and I am no longer in pain, five stars all the way.

After developing a terrible toothache in a tooth that had already had a root canal and a crown, my regular dentist sent me straight to Dr. Corcoran, who had agreed to see me the same day, and would work me in. I was amazed to be taken almost immediately, and to be treated as a valued patient; not merely an accommodation. I found Dr Corcoran and his entire staff to be personable, kind, and compassionate. Dr. Corcoran ended up drilling through the crown, re-doing the root canal, and treating an abscess. I had been told that since I was being worked in, it might take a while, and to take a book or tablet with me, but that turned it not to be the case. I was finished and on my way home in less than 2 hours, and while it was unavoidably sensitive for the next few days, the agonizing pain caused by the abscess was gone. I highly recommend Pinehurst Endodontics - it was the most positive root canal experience I have ever had!
