Shanks Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Patient Review
I have had a great experience with Dr. Shanks and his staff. His practice came highly recommended by another professional. My tooth needed to be extracted and prepared for an implant. While not looking forward to the process, I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth and easy it went . Dr Shanks throughly explains all procedures needed with a kind demeanor and gentle approach. I definitely recommend Dr Shanks as an oral surgeon.

My second time seeing Dr. Shanks for a new issue. I was having a hard time getting help from my dentist to try to consult with Dr. Shanks and resolve a question before I could proceed with further dental work. When I spoke with the assistant to Dr. Shanks, she actually listened to my concerns and consulted with Dr. Shanks and worked me in today earlier than they first said they could see me. The staff and Dr, Shanks are so kind and caring and he was very reassuring about my concerns. I highly recommend Dr. shanks and his entire office staff. My second excellent experience with them. Another follow up visit and still sing praises for Dr. Shanks and his staff!
