Amherst Oral Surgery

Had 2 lower wisdom tooth removals. The good doctor is a master of his craft, extremely humble and professional. Put your mind at ease if your going here! Can not stop recommending him!! 10 stars!

Had a tooth that needed to be pulled after a failed root canal. The staff did a great job helping me get a consultation quickly and the tooth removed a few days after. Dr. Chmiel was very understanding about me being nervous. He talked me through the process and really helped me feel comfortable during the procedure. Staff was top notch, friendly, informative, and professional. They helped make a painful process as pleasant as one could hope for.

Dr. Chmiel and Staff were fantastic from the first to the last visit. They always returned our calls and answered all of our questions no matter how small.nI recommend them to anyone looking and not sure where to go.nFriendly and caring made a scary time manageable.

Do not go here under any circumstances, I was recommended to go here by my dentist to have my wisdom teeth taken out. The worst experience ever, I woke up half way through the procedure after having them knock me out because I didn't want to wake up. I felt the entire procedure, I was looking right into Dr Chimel's eyes and all he kept saying is keep breathing. I felt all the pain of the procedure. After it was done the Dr said, why didn't you say something to us. Well maybe because I have 4 hands in my month and drills. I couldn't talk, they offered no sense of remorse and I will be reporting them to the NYS dentistry board. There is no reason that 30 mins afterwards I felt no side affects of the anthesia and was able to walk out of there myself. They took me out the back door hide me because of there complete screw up and failure. Worst decision of my life to go here, then the Dr blamed it on my weight, for having 30 years of experience that is the worst excuse I've ever heard. Please go anywhere else but here, worst experience of my life and I would never recommend.

I normally don’t write reviews but I was so pleased with the service I received from Amherst Oral surgery that I felt the need to. I had been having tooth pain for about a week prior to my visit at the office. I visited my regular dentist and they advised me my wisdom tooth was giving me issues as it grew in sideways and had a cavity under it. It turn, the tooth next to it had also decayed. My dentist also advised me I would need to visit an oral surgeon to get it fixed as it was too far in the back of my mouth for her to reach. I contacted Amherst Oral Surgery and made an appointment directly after I had left my dentist as I was already in pain and it was progressively getting worse. The appointment I made was for Monday the previous week. During the time I waited for my appointment my tooth pain got unbearable. I could not sleep, eat, or function. The night prior to my visit was the worst night of my life. I know it sounds dramatic but I was in pain and did not sleep AT ALL. I was nervous because I knew I had an appointment at Amherst Oral Surgery the next day but I also knew that it was just a consultation and that I would need to make an appointment to come back. I prayed that I would get the help I needed because I was also not in a good head space, feeling a lot of anxiety because of the pain. Somehow I made it to my appointment without going crazy. I’m normally a pretty cool calm and collected person but as soon as I walked in and locked eyes with the receptionist I started crying and couldn’t catch my breath. The women working at the front counter were very kind and told me that I’m here now and everything was going to be ok.nNot long after I filled out my paperwork I was called into the office. The entire office is very clean and organized. I sat down in the chair and spoke to who I think was a dental hygienist first. I explained to her the discomfort I was having and the dentist (Ronald Chmiel Jr. D.D.S.) walked in. I was crying and couldn’t breathe the whole time I was explaining my situation. I’m hungry because I haven’t ate in days, I’m miserable, exhausted, my anxiety is through the roof, and I just would like to get some sleep.. The dentist listened to me and said that we could get me back in as soon as possible. I explained to him even if it was the next day it would be too long. I begged him to take me that day and extract the teeth causing me pain and head aches. The dentist looked and me and said he would look into it for me. He walked away and I prayed that they could... Tooth pain is no joke and on top of not sleeping I just needed someone to help me. He came back and said he could do it and this time I cried happy tears. In my mind at that time, I thought it would probably take some time, but that the pain was finally going to be gone. I was brought into another room, also really clean with cool pictures on the ceiling. The dentist gave me novicane shots and I felt instant relief. The entire procedure took legitimately under 5 minutes. The dentist was SO calming and knew exactly what to say at the right time. I was not scared at all and 2 minutes after I was in the chair he said, “ok both teeth are out!” I was so very surprised at how quickly he was able to pull my teeth. I just can’t say how grateful I am for the service I received at Amherst Oral Surgery. When I went back to work (the next day since the procedure was done so flawlessly) I bragged to coworkers about them as well. When you’re in that frame of mind, pain, anxiety, exhaustion... Having someone help you and make you feel comfortable is something that should not go unrecognized. I can’t thank the dentist or the staff enough for the amazing service and help. I would recommend Amherst Oral Surgery to anyone needing to have dental work done. Thanks again Amherst Oral Surgery!
