I recently went to Pittsburgh Oral Surgery located on Fort Couch Road, Pittsburgh, PA for a tooth…read moreextraction and consultation regarding possible tooth implant. As far as dental office visits go, my recent visit went really well. Although I have been to Pittsburgh Oral Surgery for prior dental work this was my first visit to their Fort Couch Road office. Normally I go to their Monroeville, PA office, rescheduled my appointment because of work related scheduling problems. Arrived approx. 7:00 AM for an 8:30 AM appointment and was warmly greeted and made to feel "right at home." The person working in the office asked me to update my existing on-file information. I asked if there was a place in the building to get a cup of coffee, she promptly offered to make me a cup; it was very good and appreciated. After returning the paper work a short wait ensued and then a dental assistant escorted me back to the place where the procedure would take place. The room was exceptionally clean with a great view out of a large window; all of the furniture and equipment seemed up-to-date and in a good state of repair. Next, I met Dr. Eric Smiga; he greeted me with a great smile and positive demeanor. He explained the upcoming procedure, reviewed my paperwork and x-ray, examined my tooth, discussed the potential implant, injected some painkiller, made sure I was comfortable and said he would return after a few minutes. In the interim, another person came in to explain costs and insurance terms & conditions; a very transparent and upfront process -- no surprises. Shortly thereafter Dr. Smiga returned for the "main event." He gave me an "insurance" injection of painkiller and proceeded to remove the tooth. Before I knew it, the procedure was complete and the dental assistant was explaining post extraction procedures that should be followed. Someone in the office called my prescription (an antibiotic) into my local pharmacy and I was good to go. Before leaving the office, arranged for a 1-week follow-up appointment with Dr. Smiga at their Monroeville office to make sure everything was healing the way it should. Someone, don't remember whom, suggested taking an over the counter pain pill as a proactive defense against pain when the procedure painkiller wore off. No problem had some Tylenol in the car. After arriving at my car, took a pain pill from my backpack and glanced at my watch before heading off to work -- it was 8:20 AM. I was out of there before my appointment was scheduled to start. Follow-up; took one Extra Strength Tylenol three times 6-hours apart after the extraction and have remained pain free, no issues. Had my follow-up visit this morning -- no problems, everything looks good. I don't think anyone looks forward to going to the dentist, but from beginning to end, Pittsburgh Oral Surgery made this a very positive experience.

When it comes to oral surgery I become a nervous wreck. Having gone through oral surgery before I…read morehad apprehensions of the worst that could happen. The practice formerly known as Dattillo and Hall have combined with other oral surgeons to form this practice. I was greeted warmly by the receptionists and having filled out the necessary paperwork was quickly taken back to my chair. Due to HIPPA practices cell phones must be turned off once inside the waiting area. I met with Dr. Barbosa who took the time to explain both the benefits and the risks of the tooth I needed extracted. He answered all my questions and concerns so I decided to have the tooth pulled. Since it was a simple extraction all I needed was Novocaine. He went to work as soon as the numbing effect was in place and had the fractured root of the incisor removed carefully. He did a thorough job of inspecting the area for any fragments and sutured up the open wound with dissolving thread to minimize bleeding. He told me no follow up was needed unless I encountered problems. He gave me a script for pain if I needed it. Afterwards I was taken to the nurse's station who took the time to explain what I can and cannot do to insure proper healing of wound. She gave me everything in writing along with extra gauze in case of any bleeding and said to expect a follow up call tomorrow to see how I am doing. I honestly felt a lot better with the extraction since I was enduring so much pain for the past 10 days with the fractured root. I was very pleased with Dr. Barbosa and would definitely recommend him for any future oral surgery I might ever face. The office is caring, professional, and have my best interest at heart. The practice has multiple locations with the other two being in Fox Chapel and Allegheny General Hospital. They accept dental insurance, check, or credit card with exception of American Express. Located across the street from a two tiered strip mall on Mt. Lebanon Blvd, they have their own earmarked patient parking available.

Dr. Bianco did an excellent job making sure I was comfortable, and felt no pain, and Lynn was also excellent in assisting the doctor, and to me in making sure I knew what to do after the procedure. Everyone here was exceptionally nice. THANKS! P.S. UPDATE: Dr. Bianco called me at home in the evening to make sure everything was O.K. What a very nice, and caring Doctor.

Dr. Barroner is Fan-effin-tastic. She provides services that you hope never to need, but if you…read moreneed them, she is clearly the one to visit. What brought us to Dr. Barroner was my 16-year-old- son's four impacted wisdom teeth. He had two 12-year molars that had not yet erupted due to these gargantuan-ass teeth sitting in their way. His Orthodontist, Dr. Troy, had recommended two surgeons, but I got the better vibe from Dr. Barroner's office. That may be due to the office Wonder Woman known as Rose. In fact, everyone in that office is friendly and professional. Because my son is diabetic, we had some extra prep to do. and we were well informed in advance of what needed to be done before, during, and after the visit. The surgery went smoothly - skilled, quality work done right. They even let us come back in to allay concerns about what we thought was extra bleeding (which was normal bleeding, I guess we were just nervous nellies!) She then followed up the next day to find out how he was and let us know we could call her anytime if we have any problems or questions. I'm so glad we chose to use Dr. Barroner for the wisdom tooth extraction. If you need an oral surgeon, and you go anywhere else, you're a total bonehead. I usually attach photos, but I don't know what I would put here. You probably don't want to look at his teeth, which we did get to take home. Thank you, Dr. Barroner and the rest of the staff at Elevated Oral & Implant Surgery!

In my mind im like what is she there working as a nurse. The other patient before my daughter was told to be in the parking lot on the side.

Later I called the office to asked the nurses name, She claimed it was Brook, I left a message and emailed Dr.Davies , her respond was to explain the prodigal after surgery to the nurse.

I'm now being told I won't get my money from the office until I get my tooth restored over 3 months from now, from a different dental provider. They said they do this "just in case" anything goes wrong with his work. I'll be able to come back and use the insurance money they claimed to not accept. Makes sense right ?? Greedy, lying, crooks who were now paid twice and won't release my funds to me. Never use an office like this. Imagine what else they do to make an extra buck.
