I went to Dr. Foto to get my wisdom teeth removed and he was very nice. He had introduced himself to me like a professional and it made me feel a little more comfortable. The waiting room is terribly small however. The actual exam rooms are very nice, especially in South Hill. The nurses and receptionists were very kind as well. The surgery was great, had no swelling and very little pain. I would recommend Dr. Foto to anyone.

I went to Dr. Foto to have my wisdom teeth extracted. They took x-rays quickly and then I went to talk to the dental assistent(who looked quite young) who informed me that "the doctor would highly recommend to have a retained baby tooth/permenent canine tooth removed at the same time" I was shocked because I would be left with a gaping hole in my upper front teeth and as I would be getting braces in a few months and not having that permenent canine tooth there to be brought down at that time, it would cost me even more money and leave with paying for a fake tooth to put in its place. Thankfully, I already knew about this complication and that it was fixable especially with braces. When I was ushered into another room I met with Dr. Foto and he seemed very nice and funny. I asked him about the retained baby tooth etc. he said if I was getting braces it was not a issue and he also took the time to answer a question about my overbite and if jaw surgery would be needed. The surgery went ok, except I was supposed to be put under and it did'nt happen until after they started to extract my first wisdom tooth-felt drowsy, but still awake. I was disappointed in the dental assistent giving ill advise on the extraction of the permenent tooth

Dr. Foto is a wonderful surgeon. I am a person that is very apprehensive about needles. His work did not hurt. The work that he did was very professionally done.

Nothing but problems and the staff (the entire) was rude right from the first phone call. I have had many people complain to me in the office waiting area, my friends that have taken their children there all after the fact! I have had a LONG recovery and things keep going wrong. The rooms are dirty and you will often find dirty utensils in the sink.
