We love Dr. Tom and his staff! They are always so friendly and helpful! I recently had to have some oral surgery and I am very pleased with the results! We just cant say enough good things about them.

Dr. Wright is incredible! He was able to do a procedure that other doctors told me was not possible! He has such a gentle, caring manner that puts even the most anxious patient at ease. His staff is second to none! I will recommend Dr. Tom every chance I get!
