I honestly believe Dr. Kunkel may have saved my mom's life.  I was terrified when my 77 yr old…read moremother recently started experiencing excruciating mouth pain. We're new to town and didn't have a clue which oral surgeon was most highly regarded. The first one (she chose) took x-rays and couldn't find anything wrong. The next 3 I chose after hours of research, poring through all the review sites I could find. I believe I found the top 3, the first of whom promptly diagnosed her as having severe Osteomyelitis (bone infection), immediately referred her to an Infectious Disease Specialist, and somewhat frantically insisted she schedule surgery within the week. Total face time with doc was maybe 5 mins. Grateful to have a diagnosis but frankly he scared the bejesus out of us! The next day we saw Dr. Kunkel for a second opinion. He confirmed the diagnosis, however, his disposition and overall approach discussing the prognosis was entirely different. I don't know how to really explain it but you can just tell that this man is utterly brilliant, like scary smart! It's almost like you can see him doing differentials in his head while simultaneously fully present and engaged, taking all the time we needed to discuss and fully address the many questions/concerns we had. Witnessing such humble aptitude, we were quite certain he's who we wanted but still kept our 3rd appointment the next day with the #1 highest rated oral surgeon on Healthgrades (& frankly the doc we were initially most excited about). And wow, what a shock that was - Dr. D'Add**** wasn't even in the same league as Dr. Kunkel!!  I'll forgo the details not wanting to speak poorly of him as perhaps it was just an off day or maybe illness/fatigue/stress/etc?...but I will say in all earnestness that we both left that appointment feeling all the more confident that Dr. Kunkel was by far our best bet!   Now here's where it really starts to get interesting. Dr. Kunkel's schedule was COMPLETELY booked for the following 2+ weeks. Moreover, it wasn't his week in rotation at St Francis Hospital so he didn't even have access to a surgical suite (surgery of this magnitude couldn't be done at his office). Upon learning this, we were scared to death as mom's situation was critical and time was of the essence.  Well, wouldn't you know it: Dr. Kunkel, knowing the gravity of her situation and how terrified we were, and wanting to ensure she get the very best care possible, not only managed to somehow reserve surgical suite access, but also so selflessly and generously offered to preform the operation on his only day off!!  I mean, what an amazingly altruistic gesture that truly meant the world to us.  Over the following few days leading up to surgery he was in contact with my mom, often late in the evening around 9pm after a full day of work (which, OMG how awesome) discussing the procedure and CLEARLY checking out the latest research on the myriad of complementary/alternative treatments I'd berated him with! In all honesty, his willingness to spend time doing the additional research I'm confident he did so to be best prepared proved that he was/is a cut above. Fast forward 4 weeks and I'm happy to report that my mom is recovering beautifully. The 5 hr. surgery was a huge success! This particular procedure isn't cut and dry, meaning, they cannot just completely remove all the necrotic bone. The surgeon must decide which bone and how much to remove and the hope is they decide wisely so as to avoid a second surgery. I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart that we managed to find such a skilled and dedicated doctor. Dr. Kunkel is a true gem who WITHOUT DOUBT you want to preform whatever surgery you might need!

I have to give this practice 5 stars. I am not too sure what one could want more from an oral…read moresurgeon. I got surgery for 3 wisdom teeth and was very pleased not only by the staff's professionalism but the un-matched customer service I received. My surgery was in the morning and by end of business day Dr. Kunkel himself called my mobile to check up on me. Not his nurse, not his receptionist. He called personally, I thought that was a nice touch. They sent me home with a tiny ice pack (nor super practical but very appreciated nonetheless), clear concise instructions on after care and the tools I needed to take care of my post op. The pain meds I received were really not strong enough to eliminate my pain, nor did I have enough. But since I had an adverse reaction to the opioids it really did not matter much to me...I actually stop taking them quite early in the healing process. I think this may be a negative for some, if they think they'll get massive amount of maximum strength opioids. But I actually think this is a positive, as it tells me they are careful with dosage and amounts of opioids prescribed here. I think many docs in the past have been too loose with opioids prescriptions which in turn contributed greatly to the current epidemic. Three days after surgery I received a get well card in the mail signed by the entire team. I have to say that was so nice. I have unfortunately been seeing a lot of dental practitioners in the past 2 years and this was quite a novelty. Again, nice touch. A week post surgery I went in for my checkup. After 15 minutes one of the nurses came out to let us know that the current surgery had incurred in some complications so Dr. Kunkel was now running a full 30 minutes behind schedule. She apologized and left. The receptionist asked some patients if they preferred to reschedule all together, leave and come back in about 30 minutes or so or if they preferred to wait. Most preferred to wait since they did not have anywhere close by to go. I did not have the option either. I just settled in for the wait. Less than 5 minutes later she came out and gave each of us a Starbucks gift card. Her opening was: I understand that your time is just as precious as our time, and although surgeries are unpredictable and the wait could not be avoided, we'd like to give you this little token of our appreciation for your wait. I mean, when does that EVER happen? Anyways, like I said, top notch customer service. This place is what oral surgery clinicians should use as their guidelines for a successful practice.

I'd give Dr. Hildebrandt 10 stars if I could...my husband and I have both been coming here for…read moreyears and it's the only place I would consider for extractions. It's a beautiful office, with a friendly staff, comfortable and clean. All procedures are explained, all questions are answered and Dr. Hildebrandt makes certain that I am fully numb before pulling my tooth. I have full trust in him and just had a tooth pulled last week...it took all of 10 seconds (yes, 10 seconds) to pull it out after I was totally numb. He's the best!!!

They don't care. They set up a virtual consultation and never called. When i called them they…read moresaid I had the date wrong and that they had called. My phone shows no record of it. We set up a new time and they again didn't call but I called them a minute after no one answers called 3 minutes after and left a message. Never heard back. Called them a day later (today) and again they said they called at the scheduled time and left a message. They did not! No apology or anything. I've checked missed calls and voicemail and there is no record. Checked the number and it's correct. 3 of my 4 daughters had their wisdom teeth done here so I was confident that this was a great choice. But after dealing with the blame game on 2 different occasions we will go somewhere else. Very disappointed and now I've wasted a month while my daughter suffers with mouth pain.

I hate going to the dentist. I've had some pretty bad experiences at the dentist in the past and…read morethat has led me to want to avoid going at all costs (and a lot of it is because of the cost)! But obviously it's important to go. Moving to a new town means starting over and I got a recommendation from a friend who also had bad experiences in the past, so I decided to give Covin Tao Dentistry a try. I've been several times now- for emergencies, like losing or breaking a crown, and also for checkups. I think I can now say that I can trust them and I can highly recommend them! This practice is recommended in many local Facebook groups as a place where the staff are gentle- I agree that this is the case after multiple visits. I really appreciate this. They seem to understand dental anxiety. :) I also deeply appreciate that they don't recommend a lot of extra things and don't seem to be focused on money; this is a huge relief to me. They don't pressure you and mostly don't shame you (although of course they are very focused on flossing education!) Their offices are very nice too. There are three doctors in the practice and they are all related! I think this is sweet and cool. Dr. Colvin is the husband, Dr. Tao is the wife, and then Dr. Kate is their daughter! I haven't met Dr. Tao yet but people RAVE about her! Dr. Colvin has been my primary dentist and he is very good, has a quirky personality, and really seems to know his stuff. When I had a crown fall out on a Friday after they were closed, because I am a patient with them, they arranged for someone to meet me at the office which I was SO grateful for! I got to meet Dr. Kate and found her absolutely delightful- gentle, kind, personable, funny, and she made the process not painful and quick- I was very impressed and I've had NO issues since! I really appreciated their customer service in helping me after hours and that I didn't have to wait all weekend for an appointment. Their communication was excellent too. The staff all seem friendly. I had a great experience yesterday with Courtney, a hygienist. I was impressed by her and didn't feel shamed in how she talked to me which was refreshing. Overall I am thankful to find a dental office that I feel I can trust and hopefully from now on won't dread going to! I encourage you to give them a try.

New to the area and wanted to establish care / get a routine cleaning. This was the best dental…read moreexperiences of my past 20 years! From Elizabeth at the front desk (who worked so hard to accommodate my schedule), to my hygienist Connie (extremely thorough, answered all my many questions and gave me some great tips), to Dr. Kate Tao, who was extremely personable and took the time to review my past records as well as give me a general sense for what to expect over the coming years--a truly wonderful practice that I can't recommend highly enough. 10/10!
