Worst Front Desk! I want to make an appointment regarding an implant and she said we need to pull it out. She's not in a position to say that.!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never ever go to this clinic. Rude front desk.!!!!

Went today. Two teeth extracted. One was wisdom. I was very nervous and scared ... But they were so good, so kind. They did everything to make me feel comfortable. The doctor is for 5 stars. Thank you very much, without any pain or discomfort. I have not swollen at all and I do not have any pain after so many hours. Also,front desk very kind lady's!!! Thank you all very much.

Hands down the best oral surgeon! Dr Tankersley and the nurse Kelly and all the other staff was extremely kind and helpful. I went in there scared out of my mind but Kelly and the other nurses really calmed me down and made me feel safe! I just got my wisdom teeth taken out yesterday and I already feel so much better! Yes I'm still in pain obviously lol but I feel great! I'm so greatful for everyone and including my aunt who helped me through it! But if your looking for an oral surgeon, Dr. Tankersley is the man for ya!

Dr. Tankersley is very professional, to the point and quick. My daughter had her wisdom teeth pulled. After a few weeks one side was bothering her. His staff got us in right away to take a look. He cleaned the area, reassured us it was doing good and told us not to hesitate to come back if she had any discomfort. Which was so nice and comforting. He also did not charge us for that visit. Thankful for the genuine care provided.

Dr. Tankersley was awesome! My son needed to have all four of his wisdoms taking out. When it comes to your children. You wanna make sure you find the best Dr possible. Upon searching for an oral surgeon. I came across Dr. Tankersley. The reviews were excellent. So I made the appt. Well I 2nd the reviews. The office staff was very kind, professional and helpful. Dr. Tankersley hands down THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!! He's fast, effecient, kind and thorough. He embodies all of the qualities you want in a Dr. I highly recommend him!!

Best oral surgeon !!!!! I have never had dental work done before and was more than terrified to have any done. The office staff is so kind and caring and the nurses and doctor are just as kind and caring ! They took very good care of me , answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable and did not feel anything. I was in and out of his office in no time. I did not feel anything but some pressure when he pulled a broken tooth out that causing so much pain and discomfort. Thank you :) I let my dentist know to start referring patients to you !!!

I am very very satisfied with my care by Dr. Tankersley and his staff! Dr. Tankersley did my wisdom teeth extraction (all 4!) And I got a dry socket in one of the extraction sites .His office fit me right in same day since it was painful and Dr. Tankersley treated me right away. I didn't even have to fill my pain prescription! Right before the surgery I was very nervous and the nursing staff comforted me and were so caring! The girl at the front desk with the dark long hair who was at the n.n. location and Williamsburg location during my visits leading up to surgery was very pleasant..I work medical and she is great they are lucky to have her! (So sorry I did not catch her name!) You are all wonderful! Thank you!!

While my son was deployed, I took my 12 yo granddaughter twice in a year for procedures needed for her braces. The doctor was wonderful and very patient. He took great care of my granddaughter! I would highly recommend this place...

Came here for my consultation for my impacted wisdom teeth. Keep in mind I know new patients have to fill out paperwork so I arrived early. From the time of my actual appointment to when I was taken back into a room was almost a hour! Then I had to watch a 1990's video about the procedure for 20 more minutes. I then continued to wait for the doctor for another 10 minutes before being seen. He came in and explained everything, he was only in there for maybe 10 minutes. At this point I have already done enough research to know what was going to happen and I needed to just schedule my surgery. When I was finishing up the woman who was checking me out told me that my insurance only does "snail mail" so it would take a while. Contrary to her statement I called the insurance and they have electronic claims. Having to go back and forth with this is thoroughly irritating. Considering all of my teeth are impacted and cause me sharp pains everyday. Cannot wait to get this over with and to not have to deal with this office again!

Excellent staff and excellent dr! Dr. Tankersley is the best! He has taken both of my daughter's wisdom teeth out as well as handled and emergency for my husband and we couldn't have asked for better bedside manner, service or skills! Would definitely return if needed!

I had two teeth pulled at this office i have been in severe pain for 5 days the office manager april has treated me so badly she has refused ti give me an appt. Disrespecting my husband its so sad that people have to go through a monster like that when they are sick. Be warned the dr done a goid job but to get a second appt if theres a problem takes a miracle. I feel bad for people that have to be cruel to others just because they feel like it
