Desert Oral Surgery was absolutely wonderful. My boyfriend had a mishap with his regular dentist during a tooth extraction and needed immediate care from an oral surgeon. They got him in the same day, seen right away, and took such great care of him.
The entire team was incredibly reassuring, professional, empathetic, and attentive. They corrected what had gone wrong and even followed up with a phone call that evening to make sure he was doing okay鈥攕omething we truly appreciated.
Dr. Bass, his assistant, and the front office staff were amazing from start to finish. We are so grateful for their kindness and expertise. They deserve all the recognition!

I was incredibly scared to get my wisdom teeth removed. I had 2 impacted and waited too long to get this done. The staff was very kind and patient with me. They were respectful eventhough I was a big baby about it. Also, things moved like a well-oiled machine. Very professional and efficient, without making me feel rushed.

Highly recommend I was a nervous wreck and putt off my wisdom teeth removal for YEARS, but meeting the Dr was like a breath of reassurance and fresh air. Very grateful to have been sedated and surrounded by such kind calm and caring people! Dani at the front desk was wonderful and such a highlight to the whole experience. Her spirit lights up the whole office. 馃檶

Wow! I was so impressed by Dr. Bass and his staff. From the front office, to the medical assistants, everyone was great. I even received a follow up call from the doctor himself after my outpatient surgery. I had a horrible experience with my previous dental work and was nervous going into it but they did a great job and made me feel very comfortable. Great job everyone!!
