Why People Love Associates in Oral and Implant Surgery

Dr. Duvernois just minutes ago painlessly and professionally extracted two wisdom teeth. From the moment that he walked in the room I knew I was in the hands of a seasoned pro. He painlessly numbed me up, he explained every aspect of the procedure and frequently checked in on my well being. Sounds ludicrous to say this…but…we all seemed to have some fun.

Dr. DuVernois is a skilled oral surgeon. He is caring and takes the time to explain all options. He wrote a letter to MetLife which helped convince them I needed sedation for the procedure. Lately office staff are better than they were 3 years ago. Waiting to see the Dr. is sometimes due to him taking the time to fully care for each patient.

4 office visits and each deserving of a 5 star rating. Dr. DuVernois and his staff are all very professional and courteous. Minimal wait time, fantastic chair side manners, and Dr. contact information for immediate response in the event of an emergency. I work in the healthcare industry - other providers should strive to adopt this office's level of care. Excellent service!

I just had a second tooth extraction by " Tenacious Dr. D" DuVernois and I could not be more pleased with his skill set or the results. No pain the following day and no complications. I wish I had more rotting teeth in my mouth. I could hang out at his office more often.😁

My experience was amazing. The staff made my mother feel calm and relaxed before the surgery. The doctor was especially great. He explained to both of us how the procedure was going to proceed right there. I knew my mom was in good hands after everything was said and done. My mom was so relieved thanks to everyone. Again I would love to thank the staff and doctor for everything they did.

He is very compassionate and takes time to listen to his patients. Very professional, understanding, and friendly. I went to see him feeling extreme pain. He was quick to fix me up! Didn't need any pain meds afterwards. Great job!
