Dr Exstrom was wonderful with my 93 year old mother. He was clear with her concerning her procedure and took care considering her age. Her recovery was remarkably short. Thank you for the excellent care!

Dr. Drake and his staff did a spectacular job! I was very nervous coming in to get my wisdom teeth out but from the moment I walked into the door, I felt very comfortable and my fear disappeared and the procedure went very well! I would highly recommend Dr.Drake!!

My first visit to Dr Exstrom’s office I found everyone friendly . The very kind lady at the reception desk was able to get me in a cancellation slot so I didn’t have to wait for an appointment . Dr Exstrom’s examination was through, and went well . My experience was very positive I liked the friendly professional manner of Dr Exstrom’s office and should another Oral dental need arise they would be my first call . Gregory M. Bonsall

I went in as an emergency referral, I had an infected root canal & I asked them to pull it out, and oh my , I was full of fear and anxiety and Doctor Drake Exstrom & the staff were kind, & helpful. Doctor Drake Exstrom was so gentle & reassuring me every step of the way. I loved that they did PRF with my own white blood cells. When he pulled my tooth out, I didn’t feel any pain. He explained what he was doing every step of the way. what can I say, I was relieved and truly had a lot of peace. Thank you Doctor for helping me out and making my experience a great one. I will be referring people over here. Blessings, Diana

My experience with Dr. Drake was great. He is a kind, caring and excellent surgeon. I felt very little pain after my wisdom tooth was removed and the pain killer wore off. I am following the comprehensive directions that were provided by his office. I was very impressed that he called me this morning to see how I was doing. That is a sign of a very caring doctor. I would definitely recommend Offshore Oral Surgery to anyone.

On Sunday morning, I fell down a flight of stairs and fractured a tooth, with a fragment becoming lodged deep in my lip. Unfortunately, this was not communicated during my ER visit, and I was simply told that I needed to have my tooth repaired. When I saw my dentist the following day, I learned that the fragment was still embedded in my lip and that I needed to see an oral surgeon as soon as possible. I was in significant pain, overwhelmed, and very upset by the situation. My dentist referred me to Offshore Oral Surgery, and I could not be more grateful. From my very first interaction with the team through my procedure and aftercare, I received the most genuinely kind, compassionate, and reassuring medical care I have ever experienced. Dr. Trinh and his entire staff treated me with such patience, empathy, and respect. They took the time to answer questions, address concerns, and thoroughly explain what to expect. I felt heard, cared for, and safe during an experience that had been incredibly stressful. I want to emphasize how meaningful this was for me personally. When I was nine years old, I underwent a tooth extraction during which a miscommunication resulted in the wrong area being numbed. When the extraction began and I screamed in pain, the dentist slapped me across the face before realizing the mistake and properly numbing me. That experience left me with significant anxiety surrounding dental work and oral surgery that has followed me into adulthood. If you have anxiety around getting dental work done, this is the place you want to be. I paid out of pocket because Offshore does not accept my HMO plan, and I was relieved to find their pricing was fair, reasonable, and transparent. I wholeheartedly recommend Offshore to anyone needing dental care or oral surgery, especially for anyone who experiences dental anxiety or has had negative experiences with medical providers in the past. One million stars/5

Oh, everyone is so nice and empathetic to my financial situation. They are great and my Doctor is the best. You can’t get better than that. I have to change my health group in January. I’m upset because I won’t have all my dentist. And I just found these guys. Now what do I do?

Fabulous, everyone had smiles and exuded confidence. I was in the best care possible. Room temp was cool & visual displays of water and nature were calming. Staff was cordial, courteous and professional. Both surgeon & assistant spoke to each other as well as myself during the entire procedure.
