GREAT EXPERIENCE, VERY NICE STAFF. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THANKS DR. DORSETT.
Dr Dorsett and his staff were very courteous and friendly, I had a tooth extracted and they did an awesome job. Thanks
Staff was very courteous and Dr. Dorsett was very informative and a great bed side manner. I would highly recommend this group.
Very professional and caring staff. Dr.Dorsett was a life saver & was able to work me in the next day. I'd made it for 4 days so 1 more, I was able to bareI I was in excruciating pain with a broken molar & he extracted it with ease. I was overwhelmed with how much time he spent explaining every step of the procedure as it was being conducted. From the pressure of him working quickly to the crunching of him pulling it out, it was really a welcoming feeling knowing that relief and healing was soon to follow! I'm one of those people that are extremely terrified of dentists. I'd never experienced anything like this before & he was very knowledgeable in working around my TMJ. After my jaw dislocated, which is unfortunately a normal occurrence with me, he quickly was able to reset it without causing me additional pain or discomfort. Professionals like Dr.Dorsett are a rare find. I would never even consider going anywhere else for any oral surgery needs. I'd like to add, all of his staff from the time of check in to the exam room & even checking out were not only helpful and patient but understanding and nice enough to put up with me! That in itself is NOT an easy job! Thanks to the whole crew @ OSA!!! You guys ROCK! Hopefully, I won't have to see them again for a long while but, I know they're there when I need them!
Anna and Dr. Dorsett were both great. They were understanding, informative, patient, and caring.
