Many, maybe most, of the oral surgeons in this practice hold dual MD and DDS or DMD degrees and…read moreafter maybe dozen or so visits across several years my husband and I are very happy patients. Every experience has been stellar for patient care and in particular for surgical skill and outcome of the process. Noting a number of 1 star reviews, I'll point out that they are largely from people who are unhappy about this practice not taking their insurance. But, I'm going to focus on the quality of care here which is excellent at every step. If you are a patient looking for top quality surgical skill and care for procedures like wisdom teeth extraction, fractured tooth extractions, implants and diagnosis of oral disease, this practice in any of their locations is my recommendation. We used this Boise location but the practice has expanded with offices in Meridian, Star and Caldwell making it more convenient for patients in the Treasure Valley to access this care. OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE FOR PHYSICAN SKILL AND PATIENT CARE: We were referred in here by our dentist nine years ago when my husband needed implant work done to solve a very tricky problem. Having had one implant done maybe 20 years ago in another city where we lived, my husband, no sissy about discomfort, told our dentist "never again" for how painful it was. Our dentist said "Trust me. With Dr. Kempers at Whitewater this will be all good." And it was, with three different procedures and multiple visits across a couple of years time, the outcome was perfect. I had my own experience with Dr. Kempers (MD, DDS) a few years later when I developed a serious problem inside my mouth and tongue that was making it impossible for me to eat and even difficult to swallow liquid and my family doctor across four visits was patting me on the proverbial head and recommending OTC management of same. I finally went into my dentist as a "Hail Mary" and he said I needed to see Dr. Kempers ASAP, he made a call and Whitewater took me that same afternoon. Through exam and biopsy, Dr. Kempers diagnosed a rarely occurring (lucky me - not - to be in the 2%) autoimmune disease and with treatment he prescribed, it went into remission. When I fractured a molar a few years later (right before Thanksgiving no less), I saw Dr. Kempers to have it removed and subsequently an implant done and all went smoothly with everything. My husband and I also appreciated that the doctor and staff always treated us with respect and were willing to take time to explain procedures and answer questions. The surgeons here are highly skilled, their medical assistants are too, the scheduling and billing are always on point. My husband and I are very happy. THE INSURANCE ISSUE: Getting back to insurance, we do have dental insurance but like most dental plans it doesn't cover much beside routine dental cleaning twice a year and there is a high deductible before it kicks in for paying partial fees on other things. Like several of the people who complain here in 1 star reviews, we are retired people. Unlike them, we do not expect an oral surgery group, or any medical practice, to extend payment plans because that means the medical practice is essentially getting in the business of loaning money and getting in the business of managing the payments that isn't a model that works for any practice. We knew that going in. Also, for procedures that are not purely dental but medical, like the biopsy needed for diagnosis and treatment of the auto-immune condition, those were billed to and covered by our medical insurance. PARKING: Private lot and you enter through the front door. After surgical procedures with anesthetic for which one needs a driver afterwards, the recovering patient can exit and be picked up at the side door. ACCESSIBILITY: One might expect that 35 years after ADA was passed that all medical offices would be fully wheelchair accessible but you'd be surprised at how many are not. This one is.

He could've had me in and done the procedure but instead, he called me personally to make a diet plan and stressed the need for rest. He wanted to try a natural approach before he did anything procedure wise. I genuinely appreciate the care he puts into medicine. If you're looking for almost any facial procedure, definitely talk to this office. They are warm, welcoming, and really care about your well being. I will continue to see them for any needs I have!

Minimal topical anesthetic was applied to my gums or cheek before the novocaine injections by your assistant and none were applied by you -- a routine step that most oral health professionals consider standard care. [My most recent experience prior to this visit by another DDS was painless]. Skipping this procedure had real consequences: the injections were acutely painful, causing me to jerk back involuntarily, cry out, and suffer a throbbing pain in the back of my head for several minutes. I have never had a more excruciating administration of novocaine including the removal of impacted wisdom teeth years ago. What was not skipped: collecting full payment before the procedure began. That priority was made very clear. But seemingly pain management is not a priority as it took five phone calls to the office and ultimately to you directly after hours to receive the Rx for pain medication that had been promised. I would not return to this practice. I would not recommend it. And I will be contacting the referring dentist (who probably receives a kick-back) to share my experience, as I believe patients deserve to make informed decisions before being sent here.

I had put off having oral surgery for about ten years because I was terrified of being put under and not knowing what to expect during my recovery. I've had consultations with a couple other surgeons out of state in previous years, and none of them really gave me the confidence I needed to get the surgery done. Dr. Bobst and his staff are so professional and compassionate and do everything to make you feel comfortable and at ease. When I originally went in for my consultation with Dr. Bobst, I knew I was in the right hands. They are honest and provided me with multiple options for my surgery, which no one else ever had. They were also able to get my my final estimate after insurance, prior to my surgery date. The entire procedure was super quick and painless, and it was with IV sedation. When I woke up from surgery, the caring staff had placed a warm blanket on me, it felt as though I had woken up from the best nap ever. No nausea or drowsiness either. I've had very manageable pain during my recovery and I absolutely believe that my smooth recovery all has to do with Dr. Bobst and his highly skilled team. I am so happy to have finally overcome my fear, and have those teeth gone! I can't recommend Boise Oral Surgery enough. They are hands down THE BEST!!!
