Harbor Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery - Tacoma

I recently had my wisdom teeth removed today .By Far Harbor Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The team was exceptionally kind, professional, and attentive to my needs. The facility was spotless, and I felt completely comfortable throughout my visit. Sophie, my nurse, was especially wonderful she was warm, made me laugh, and ensured .I was at ease. I highly recommend this practice for anyone considering wisdom teeth removal. I left feeling numb, pain-free, and without any complications. My husband was also impressed and took the time to learn more about their services. Thank you to everyone at By Far Harbor for making this experience as pleasant as possible, and a special thanks to Sophie for your exceptional care!

I’ve had many dental procedures done with Dr.Bird and every experience was exceptional, thanks to both him and his amazing staff. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and professional. They ensured that I felt comfortable and well-informed every step of the way, which immediately put me at ease. Dr. Bird is a highly skilled professional. He thoroughly explained the procedure beforehand, addressing all of my concerns with patience and clarity. During the procedure, he was meticulous and ensured that I was comfortable throughout. I appreciated how calm and reassuring both he and his team were, making what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable and as pain-free as possible. The care didn’t stop after the procedure. Dr. Bird and staff followed up with me to check on my recovery, and the detailed aftercare instructions they provided made the healing process smooth. A special thanks to Melanie, who went above and beyond with the insurance billing process. She was so helpful in explaining everything clearly and ensuring that all the paperwork was handled smoothly, which took a huge weight off my shoulders. I truly appreciated her patience and professionalism. I can’t thank Dr. Bird and his team enough for their excellent service. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of dental care—you’ll be in the best hands!

Great experience from my wisdom tooth extraction today. Everyone was so nice! Dr. Ludwig was so professional, and kind. He had me out of there with little pain in no time. Very good at what he does. I am very grateful.

My two stars is because I actually liked the Dr that had taken out my wisdom teeth. Otherwise I would give their facility “0” stars. I called to pay my bill today and yes; I’ve been making only $50 payments because life is hard but we do what we have to do . Moreover, I called today 08/29/24 and they had the audacity to say “you have to make the rest of your bill by the end of September”. I held my tongue and rather just write a review. It had taken me this long to pay my bill because when I went in for a consult and for them to see “how much” my insurance was going to cover I came back and they said it was suppose to be around $250 close to $300. Therefore, yes, I was mad had I received my EOB from my insurance that clearly didn’t state that because my supposedly “$200-$300” bill was now over $700 ? wasn’t even in the realm of $400-$500 their estimate wasn’t even close. The fact that your facility thinks it’s ok to tell me when to finish my payments is crazy because 1) you were NOWHERE right on your estimate and yes, I never complained because I know how insurance works 2) it’s not like I haven’t been paying you & I apologize if the amount isn’t up to your par but hey my balance is $50 right? so don’t speak to me as if I’m someone you had to send to collections.

If you need any oral surgery go here. I have been putting off getting my wisdom teeth out for years because I was so scared about the process. I saw Dr. Elias and he was great at presenting me with all of my options and not just immediately assuming I needed to get all 4 out. In my consultation he answered all of my questions and was very practical and really helped manage my stress. They were also very flexible with scheduling the procedure and on the actual surgery day the team way amazing. They were all very friendly and made it as easy as possible, seamless, and pain free. They even sent me home with a pint of ice cream. Dr. Elias also followed up to see how I was doing a couple days later. I have nothing but the best things to say about Harbor Oral Surgery and couldn’t recommend them enough!
