Reviews

"Heck who wants to go to an Oral Surgeon? Here you go anyway.. Dr. Delgado's staff is professional and nurturing. Jennifer is the assistant who took my xrays and held my hand during my procedure. I was dreading this day but her kindness, empathy and knowledge was outstanding. Dr. Delgado was patient and told me step by step what was happening. It is the next day after step 2 of my implant and I am sore but greatful it was done. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Delgado & Kuzmik."

"I saw Dr Delgado for a painfully failing implant. Although it was painful, he and his team were patient and kind, explaining the procedure and giving me all the breaks I needed. My husband had his wisdom teeth out there because of my recommendation and he was equally pleased."

"I was referred to Dr. Delgado by my primary dentist for an extraction. I was very nervous. The staff was very pleasant and understanding. Dr. Delgado talked me thru the entire procedure with a very soft and caring voice, letting me know what I may feel before actually doing it. Dr. Delgado is a jewel; don't hesitate making an appointment with him and his Staff."

"Had to have a cracked molar extracted and bone graft placed. I wasn’t brave enough to just have Novocain so opted for sedation. That was an extra $280 but well worth the cost since I sat down, had my blood pressure taken, interacted with several very friendly, efficient people including Dr. Delgado, had a painless IV stick in my left arm, was told I’d start feeling relaxed which I did, then woke up with some gauze in my mouth being told it was all over. Procedure took maybe 25 mins, then I rested in a nearby cubicle and got a text from my friend that she was on the way to pick me up. Since I haven’t needed so much as even having a cavity fillled in 20 yrs I had been very apprehensive of what I considered the worst thing imaginable—having a tooth pulled! But this was a nonevent thanks to the ultra-professional friendly staff from the receptionist who answers the phone to the surgery assistant Jennifer who sorts out all the monitors you need to be attached to to the very calm and reassuring Dr Delgado himself. I am so glad my dentist referred me here for the extraction. No phobias triggered, no difficult personalities encountered, no billing surprises—in fact I was shocked at how reasonable the cost was given all my other experiences with our modern health care system. Going to Dr Delgado’s office is like stepping back in time to when we Americans used to receive excellent health care for a reasonable cost in a safe, warm, welcoming environment. I can’t remember the last time that happened. Probably back in the 1980s (I’m 70 now). Highly recommended office especially the front facing staff. Thank you all for making this a nonevent for nervous me."
