I was referred to Dr. Scott Barber for a tooth extraction. I had never before had a tooth…read moreextracted, not even a wisdom tooth. As a result, I did not know what to expect, and I had heard stories about the need for pain medication afterwards. But it could not have gone more smoothly. Dr. Barber, his nurse, and the receptionist in the lobby were very helpful, friendly, and professional. Everything was clearly explained to me in advance. The extraction was done rapidly and efficiently. It is now seven days since the extraction, and I have not even needed to take an Aleve or anything else. The discomfort was minimal. I have total confidence in Dr. Barber. If you read about him on his practice's web site, you will find that he is Board Certified with excellent credentials and experience. If I should ever again need a tooth extracted or any other kind of oral surgery, I will most certainly choose Dr. Barber.

We had a great experience here. My 17 year old son has…read moreautism, and high anxiety. He has always been sedated for his regular dental work at our dentist's office in Lawrence, and does well there. We love our regular dentist, but he cannot remove impacted wisdom teeth, so we needed an oral surgeon. We went to 2 oral surgeons in Lawrence for consultations. Both told us to go to the hospital for the sedation and extractions. It seemed to me like they were more afraid of the word "autism" than anything. A friend recommended Oral Surgery of KS and Dr. Ferrell specifically. WOW. What a nice guy ~ professional and compassionate. He was amazing with my son. We were able to do the consultation with the doctor answering my son's questions on his level, then meet alone with the doctor. The actual oral surgery was done immediately following the consultation. So, there were no hours or days of anxiety between the consultation and the surgery. We went to the Topeka office. The office staff was friendly. The place was clean and comfortable. I highly recommend Dr. Farrell and this office. I wish we had found him first.

I went in to get a molar removed after a terrible experience with another dentist. The consultation…read morewent great, they moved the schedule to get me in faster and told me that they were going to give me pain meds to last until the surgery and a Valium for an hour before the operation. The dentist also told me two times in the consultation that after the surgery they would give me strong pain meds regardless. They gave me tramadol for the week, even with my tooth rotted and the nerves exposed. I think to myself whatever, maybe it's normal to give a minor pain med for major pain before surgery. The day before the surgery, my fiancé called and asked if we get the Valium from them, because they didn't send a prescription, and the lady acted confused and like we were trying to swindle them for a single Valium, when they didn't give me a prescription at all. So, I go in for my surgery today with no Valium, which they seemed very confused about (again, I can't stress enough how they just forgot to give me the prescription and said "oh well"). I'm mortified of surgery and my anxiety was through the roof so I was already irritated and terrified. The operation went fine and dandy and the doctor told my fiancé that we would be leaving with a prescription, which would be the 3rd time this was said. When I came to the lobby we were ushered out by an older woman. I told this woman three times before we left that I was supposed to get a prescription for medicine. She said no every time and to call back if it gets really bad (really? I just had a molar pulled). So of course, it gets bad, and my fiancé calls. The lady who answered the phone said that we should have left with a prescription for Norcos. She placed her on hold and got back on the line saying that she was sending tramadol to the pharmacy for pick up. I'm still in extreme pain, and there's nothing that they will do. At the end of the day, they'll do a damn good job of pulling the tooth, but they will absolutely give you the shaft if you're getting Anastasia, both before and after. If you're a masochist then this is the place for you. If you're like me and loathe tooth pain, do yourself a favor and go somewhere where they actually care if you're in pain or not.

Dr Shelby opted for a low grade antibiotic, ZPack , double dosed, to treat an abscess infection. Within less than 24 hours after visiting with Dr Shelby, I was rushing my husband to the ER as he could not hold his head up. He was extremely sick. The ER doctor could not believe that Dr Shelby did not choose a broad spectrum antibiotic to treat my husbands infection. 6 hours later, administration of high powered aiV antibiotics and a CT scan indicated that there was an acute infection. Luckily, the bacterial infection dI'd not yet enter the bloodstream or brain. We then had to have follow up Dr visits with our primary physician, ENT and a new Peridontist to evaluate the damage from the failed procedure. Please do not let Dr Shelby's confidence fool you. He's inexperienced. Dr Shelby's charisma carries him far, until you end up with a. failed procedure, additional medical expenses and a young dentist denying that he has any responsibility for my husbands condition. We called and spoke with Dr Shelby regarding the ER visit, accrued additional medical expenses and my husbands health and safety. Dr Shelby stated that he would call us back and obtain the ER records. it's been approximately 3 weeks and Dr Shelby NEVER returned a call. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. Please do not visit this practice as the next patient may not be as fortunate to recover as my husband finally did. We are now going to see Southwinds for his re- grafting of the area that was abscessed, infected and not properly treated by Dr Shelby. if you value your health, stay clear of Lawrence Peridontics and Dr Shelby. Please consider Southwinds, where there is a team of experienced Peridontists that have a plethora of experience. They ensure that a team effort of knowledge and experience is applicable to every patients treatment. Please also pass this unfortunate incident to friends and family as everyone deserves a Dr that actually has procedural recovery experience, empathy and proper patient etiquette when procedures do not manifest as planned.
