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.

It was determined that my eldest son needed all four of his Wisdom Teeth extracted. There was no question which Doctor would perform the procedure. My son and I have known Dr. Vukas for over 10 years and there is not a Doctor I would trust more with my son's health and welfare at stake. There were no complications with the procedure, and the recovery process went exactly how Dr. Vukas and his staff said it would.

Dr Vukas and his staff are true professionals. I have had two separate treatments by Him in the past. One being two impacted wisdom teeth being removed. This was a success with zero issues. This was tricky as I am over age 30 and was told by many other Dental professionals that this may not go well and be very painful. It was the great experience with Dr Vukas. Additionally, I was referred to Dr Vukas after a horrible facial injury. This was another success as no scarring is evident. TY !

I went to Dr. Vukas for two dental implants. Dr. Vukas put me at ease during every step of the implant process. The procedures went smoothly and I am very pleased with the results! His staff was friendly and helped with scheduling and insurance questions. I highly recommend Dr. Vukas!

Was given conflicting information with every person I encountered. Everything from being told they participated with our Insurance to being given the wrong address on the brochure sent in new patient packet. Staff does not like to be questioned regarding policy or coverage. Dr was unprofessional, sarcastic and dismissive when asked for alternative options. Had a very uneasy feeling from the moment we pulled into parking lot...should’ve gone with my instinct. Not one redeeming quality.

THIS DOCTOR IS A FRAUD. He gave my mother permanent nerve damage in her face by practicing on her and when she had an infection after, he panicked and tried sucking it out instead of treating it. TOTAL MALPRACTICE. DO NOT SEE HIM. She lives in pain and suffering everyday due to him. Who knows how many other people he has hurt. No morals and horrible "doctor"
