I just flew in from LA to have Dr. G place some implants for me. My dentist told me that Dr. Gass treats a lot of the Cardinals football players too. At the initial consult, he spent plenty of time discussing different treatment options and answered all of my questions. What I appreciated was the fact that he found ways to decrease the cost. He used a local anesthetic instead of going to sleep and saved me a considerable amount of money. It was painless and really easy with no swelling. I had to laugh on the way out because I had been so so nervous and anxious. He seemed to be really humble and down to earth despite his excellent reputation and an honest guy. You can tell he has been around the block and seen it all. I had several consults before choosing Dr. Gass. Be careful because some of these alleged doctors will fleece you by telling you that need a bone graft or a membrane etc.. You'd think they were doing brain surgery, the way they acted. Dr. Gass said it was a routine procedure and made me feel more at ease. The front office, Amanda, was extremely upbeat and helpful. She answered all of my questions concerning the costs and verified my insurance benefits. Fortunately, my insurance company picked up some of the costs. I appreciated the fact that Amanda had completed all of the paperwork for my preauthorization. The office itself has a nice ambiance but not overdone so you don't feel like you're paying for their rent. I can remember hearing Enya music (I think). I don't normally write reviews but it is hard to know these days who a good doctor is or isn't. The bottom line is: If you want a competent surgeon who is more concerned about your pocket book instead of his own, go see Dr. Gass.
