I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Storoe a couple of weeks ago and had a great…read moreexperience! The operation went well and I had no complications afterwards. I was scared of getting dry sockets and/or having a lot of pain, but my recovery was a walk in the park. He gives you a pamphlet of post-surgery instructions, so make sure you follow those and you shouldn't have any issues. The main thing I liked was how up-front they are about the costs. I called for a consult and they gave me a price range of about $275-$500 per tooth. After IV sedation, my surgery ended up being around $2,300 before insurance. Considering the skill of the surgeon and easy recovery I had, it was well worth it! One thing to note is that Dr. Storoe is a busy man and sometimes seems distracted. He is very qualified and confident in his work, but he may come off as rude to some people. I personally enjoyed having him as an oral surgeon and would recommend him to anyone in the Gainesville area needing extractions.

Doctor Storoe is a great oral surgeon! He is very impressionable and personal. When I first came in…read moreI had a gaping hole in my mouth from a tooth that just decided it had enough time being apart of me. So I needed to get an implant. He was honest with me, he didn't sugarcoat the percentages of probability and what could go wrong. With some people, it might make them nervous, but I would rather know all the possibilities then be blinded by false promises. Since then, I have had three surgeries with him to get this implant and it has been fully successful. All of his office staff are very friendly and nice. They all took great care of me

This is one of those doctors you hope you won't ever have to see, but if you do, Dr. Taylor and his…read morestaff make the experience as pleasant as possible. Let's face it, going to the oral surgeon isn't fun. My experience wasn't for me, it was for my 14 year old son. Our journey with Dr. Taylor began when my son got his braces off in September (a joyous experience) and his dentist called to say they'd seen an abnormality on his jaw in the panoramic x-ray taken after the braces were removed (terrifying info). The dentist referred us to Dr. Taylor for a consultation. Of course, this news was devastating as we pondered the worst-case scenario. How would I tell my 14 yr old he might have bone cancer? Our experience with Dr. Taylor began with the consultation. My first impression of the office was that it was clean, nicely decorated (with coffee station in the waiting area), and a welcoming receptionist. We checked in and were called back to the room within a few minutes. Dr. Taylor could not have been any more sensitive to our situation as he discussed the results of the CT scan they had just performed (the CT only took 30 seconds). My son needed to have a biopsy of his jaw. We left there with a packet full of useful information for his proceedure including pre and post proceedural instructions as well as a Xanax, Zantac, and two Aleve to be taken one hour before the proceedure. We were also given a prescription for a prescription pain reliever to be filled prior to the proceedure. The morning of the proceedure my son took the four pills as directed. By the time we reached Dr. Taylor's office he was VERY relaxed and didn't seem to have any anxiety. Again, the wait was only a few minutes before we were taken back to the room. I was allowed to go back with him as they prepped him. He was given a blanket to keep him warm and his long hair was put in a hair net. Vanessa, the dental assistant, put the sensors on to monitor his vitals while my son rambled on about funny things (he was feeling the effect of the Xanax). Dr. Taylor entered shortly after that and effortlessly inserted the IV. We chatted a few minutes about the proceedure and then I went to the waiting room. Within 20 minutes or so I was called back because the proceedure was done. What a relief to have that done. Vanessa showed me the bone specimin and we discussed post-op care. Shortly after, Dr. Taylor came back in and, as my son was waking, reassured him he'd done great. He also said the sample didn't look unusual and that he felt good about it. Of course, we were cautioned that we won't know for sure until pathology comes back in a week. I had already scheduled the follow-up appointment so we were free to go. I pulled our vehicle to a back door and Vanessa walked the groggy young man out to the car. So, if you ever need to have any kind of oral surgery done, Dr Taylor and his staff are competent and caring and I have full trust in them. When it's time for wisdom teeth to come out, I know where I will be taking my son.

Along the way it was descovered I had TMJ and developed disc displacement with restricted mouth opening. I feel so blessed that God brought me to Dr. Taylor. He's not only an excellent experienced surgeon but highly knowledgeable, approachable, accessible, kind and caring. He developes a thorough patient-centered plan based on the best evidence and he acts with no delays. I felt zero anxiety before, during, and after my arthrosentesis. If I ever need more surgeries, no doubt I will put my trust on him. And the whole teamwork in this practice is excellent. Practice is efficiently organized and staff present patients all the nessesary information clearly and timely. P.S.: on the photo me recovering from arthrosentesis; zero pain meds taken in 12 hours after procedure, just ice and rest.

The staff were all wonderful. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone seeking an experienced and honest surgeon.

Rhinoplasty Review Issues…read more I am horrified by my overall experience and result. During my consultation, I explained that my main concern was that the tip of my nose appeared too large and round. The consultation felt rushed, but I moved forward with surgery trusting Dr Tyrone's expertise. After my rhinoplasty, I called the office twice while my cast (which was just tape) was on because it felt extremely loose. I offered to come in to have it checked, but the nurse reassured me it was fine. When the cast was removed, it was barely attached to my face, and the nurse even commented that it was the easiest cast she had ever removed. As swelling went down over the next few months, it became clear something was wrong. The tip of my nose remained very large and pointed/crooked and one nostril began collapsing, my nose ran constantly, and I developed a noticeable lump on the outer nostril that did not resolve. When I raised concerns, I was often met with brief responses such as "that's odd" or told it would go away. A steroid injection was done to try to shrink the tip but that wasn't helpful. I noticed that the nasal bones at the top of my nose were protruding outward, causing VERY visible divots along the bridge and a very flat and bumpy appearance across the bridge. The bones that protrude outward are causing an inverted V shape on my nose. The tip of my nose is also noticeably crooked and my nostril look completely uneven. All of these irregularities are very noticeable, painful and very obvious. Instead of addressing the structural and cosmetic issues, Dr. Tyrone suggested placing filler in my nose for $400 to camouflage the mistakes. I obviously declined. I sought out two separate second opinions from other surgeons. Both confirmed that I was left with an open roof deformity and an inverted V deformity due to over-resection of bone. These are structural complications that are noticeable and painful and unfortunately, I may not be left with enough cartilage to fix my nose unless a surgeon harvests cartilage from elsewhere. Dr. Tyrone offered a revision surgery ONLY after I mentioned that I knew I had serious issues going on. He seemed annoyed. Unfortunately, for a revision, he quoted me nearly half of the original rhinoplasty cost, with no assurance of correction. I was told he could "try" to rasp down the sharp edges, but there was little confidence expressed. He said my nasal bones are comparable to a greenstick fracture. He said there's a lot of risk in revision and he wasn't very encouraging as he doesn't offer revisions. Due to financial limitations, I was essentially dismissed. I asked the woman working at the front desk if I needed to be seen again, as I was being seen every 2 months for a check up. I was told I would be seen again if I proceeded with revision surgery. I saved for years for this procedure. I am now left with pain, visible deformities on the center of my face, and no resolution at this time. I wish I had done more research before proceeding. Personally, I would be ashamed keeping someone's money and this be the outcome. Not only that, but if I went through with a revision surgery, I would be paying nearly half the cost of my original surgery. Please take your time, do multiple consultations with different surgeons and make sure you feel fully heard before moving forward with any surgery. My advice, please don't go here.
