Dr. Tom was a good experience in removing two impacted wisdoms. I had requested for the IV anesthetics but when came to my appt time, I was recovering from a cold and Dr. Tom suggested the safer route of an oral anesthetics and laughing gas. My anxiety must have got to me because nothing worked. Dr. Tom was so quick and fast that any pain also was very brief. He is a very nice person to deal with and provided excellent details and options. He does sometimes make a questionable "Hmm" which might you nervous of a problem but bring an ipod to block it out.
