"Dr. Paul is a very kind and caring man. I was full of anxiety before my procedure and he assured me that he was going to do everything possible to calm my nerves. I was put under what was described as "twilight sleep" and remembered nothing until being awoken by him and the staff. I highly recommend Dr. Paul. All pre and postoperative instructions were given, both verbally and in writing. Approprate medications were prescribed. Thank you Dr. Paul for making my visit comfortable."

"Everyone was so nice and helpful. I was comfortable before and after my surgery. The office called me a few hours afterwards and even sent me flowers the next day. Best oral surgeon I've ever been too."
