After having issues with Adirondack Oral & Maxillofacial surgeons (read my other review for them) I was happy that I called Capital District OMS. The office is very well organized and efficient - being able to fill out the patient information sheet online saved a lot of time in the office. We were able to consult with the doctor and got all of our questions answered prior to scheduling my son’s wisdom teeth extraction. Plus, the estimate is 1/2 what the other place was going to charge. Everyone we met today was very friendly and nice. Looking forward to the procedure which was scheduled at a very convenient time for us. More

I developed major, major jaw problems when I was an adolescent. This meant that when I was 18, I had to have major surgery that basically involved surgeons breaking my jaw in several parts, and then moving it forward and clipping it in place. Well, actually, it's far more technical than that, but you get the gist. After my orthodontist consorted with several doctors in various cities for several months, Dr. Jerry Beck agreed to take me on. Apparently I had one of the worst cases of whatever my affliction was that he'd seen in a long time. He was worried he wouldn't be able to make as much of a difference as I hoped. BUT... the eight hours of grueling surgery went well, and success was achieved. Best of all, Dr. Beck and his staff are some of the most sympathetic and understanding medical professions I've ever dealt with. Given my intense anxiety, I needed that desperately. Should you ever have to have any sort of jaw or oral surgery, I highly suggest Drs. Beck and Patel - they are both absolutely great. All of the assistants in the office are kind and flattering too, which was definitely what an insecure pre- and post-surgery teenage girl needed. More

I had to have a cracked wisdom tooth extracted and went to the Latham office.I found the staff to be pleasant and efficient. They explained fully what I needed to do and what to expect the day of the procedure.They were knowledgeable about my insurance and provided an accurate estimate of the cost.Dr. Adams was very good and he was able to perform the extraction quite quickly. I was given post op instructions and received a follow up call the next day asking how I was doing.I called a week after the extraction as I was still having a bit of swelling and pain. My call was returned very quickly and after chatting with the nurse I felt more comfortable with my progress. And she was correct that it would take a few more days before I would feel 100%.I recommend this practice. More
