Mr. Koo removed my four wisdom teeth, and I loved having the procedure at his facility. I love the staff at the office. They were so nice and friendly! I was nervous, and they did a great job talking me through it and making conversation to calm me down… I would recommend getting this procedure done at Piney Point.
I went in to see Dr. Koo recently to remove two of my wisdom teeth, two on the left side. They make sure they tell you the procedure after that I was completely knocked out, the staff was super friendly to me. When I woke up, and I had almost no post-operative pain. The holes in my gums closed up beautifully. I would highly recommend this facility. Super accommodating staff—they completely relieved my anxiety over the entire procedure.
