Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Geist is one of the most knowledgeable doctors that I know. He's a very good oral surgeon. I would recommend him to anyone.

When I arrived at Dr. Geist office I was very nervous. I walked in and was met with a smile at the front desk. Filled out my paperwork and then a young lady that had a smile on her face called me to the back and she made me feel very comfortable. Dr. Geist came in and was very nice gave me information and then extracted my tooth with no problems. Thanks to this office I'm out of pain..

Excellent doctor! I can't say enough about my care at this office. I won't see anyone else for my extractions.

My experience with Dr. Geist and his staff was so much easiser than I expected. He explained everything to me so that I could understand my upcoming procedure and answered all my questions thoroughly. I felt much less nervous about my surgery and knew I was in good hands.

Dr. Geist and his staff impressed my husband and myself with the care provided our eldest son. He was recommended by our dentist for the extraction of wisdom teeth which were impacted. The staff was so helpful with everything from the consult all the way through to our post op visit. They worked with our insurance having us only pay our percentage while filing with our insurance for the remainder. I cannot express how impressed we were with the knowledgeable staff and friendly atmosphere.
