I visited Dr. Emison's office for wisdom teeth removal and am thoroughly impressed. It was a positive experience and my recovery time was quick. It was a painless experience before and after the extraction (no painkillers needed).

My 12 year old daughter needed her lower 3rd molars removed due to orthodontic complications. A tooth “traffic jam” basically. They were completely impacted in the bone so we chose to do general anesthesia which of course freaked me out as a parent! The pediatric anesthesiologist was incredible and put both me and my daughter at ease. Great bedside manner. I also had a dental implant done by him which went smooth too. Dr. Emison and his staff did a incredible job from consultation to completion. I have full confidence in them!

Our experience starts with the issues in the difficulty in rescheduling and interactions with the front staff. This was for an initial consultation for wisdom teeth removal for my teenage daughter. Things come up as is the case in life and I had notified the office to reschedule a couple of times. On both occasions the front office/reception was very cold, lackadaisical and had no urgency in finding a date that worked. A warning sign but not a big deal I thought. After a couple of months of effort to be seen we are able to have our initial consultation. Our experience speaking with Dr Emison was positive. In that 15 minutes we spoke, my impression is that he is well experienced, competent and has a positive "bedside manner". After the consultation I was asked if I wanted to move forward. I provided my insurance info both days prior to my visit and when we came in. I asked about what my portion of payment would be and was surprised to find very ambiguous answers from the front office staff, Angelica and Kathy. Furthermore, I was being asked to sign a charge for a $255 consultation fee. This is the first time that any professional service I have utilized (medical, legal, accounting) where I have been asked to pay an initial consultation fee. More concerning, however, is,the staff makes no mention at time of appointment or arrival into the office or at any other time of any fee until we were ready to leave. This is a very deceptive practice in my opinion. When I inquire as to whether that consultation fee gets applied to the overall service I get annoyed looks from Angelica and Kathy. Angelica, as I am speaking, rudely answers a phone call as I was specifically addressing these questions to her without excusing herself. When she returns, she turns me over to Kathy who takes a "this is the way it is, take it or leave it approach" and proceeds to swing her chair around and turn her back to me in a dismissive manner. Are you kidding me? This front office has no business dealing with people. It is a real shame that a medical front office treats their potential patients this way. This is more than enough reason to seek an alternative provider that will do a solid job AND treat their patients with integrity and appreciation. Good luck to you if you choose this office for your dental needs.

Dr. Emison is excellent in oral surgery. I would rate him one of the finest Surgeons in the USA. I had my wisdom tooth extracted and it was an amazing experience. His office and surgery facility are state of the art, the best I have ever seen. His surgery assistants and office staff are very professional and courteous. I had absolutely no problem after surgery. They called me several times to see How I was doing. For my next tooth extract, I am going to Dr. Emison. Dr. And office staff, all have excellent sense of humor. It is a pleasure to visit them. I would recommend to anyone who is looking for best oral surgeon with tremendous experience and success, go to Dr. John Wesley Emison. Dr. Emison is excellent in oral surgery.

Tried to schedule a consultation with Dr. Emison for a potentially serious procedure; something to attempt fixing a potentially dislocation in the jaw due to bruxism. Our primary care physician referred him to us, and sent a fax to the office so we could make an appointment. We saw his Yelp reviews and thought he'd be a great fit, but unfortunately, the appointment never came to due to their terrible practice. We called Dr. Emison's office a few days after the fax was sent. They claimed they never received it. They also instructed us to fill out their patient form online (which takes a good hour to fill out). So we had our doctor send it a second time, and proceeded to fill out the form. We called back, we were told the fax was received, and the doctor would call us back within a few days to make an appointment. After almost two weeks later, they still hadn't called. So we called them; their office was closed and would be closed for another week. So, we waited, called back, and were told that the person who filed the fax filed it "improperly" which was why it was never seen by the doctor and why we never received a phonecall. We were told that they would personally make sure the doctor saw the fax, and that we would receive a phonecall within 2-3 days. Over a week went by, no phone call. We made one more attempt, where we were told that the consultation and "potential procedure" would tally up to $800, and that they wanted $400 now JUST TO HAVE A CONSULTATION, and that the consultation would be well over a month's wait. Keep in mind, this charge was to be OVER THE PHONE, before even attempting to contact insurance, before agreeing to any procedure, and before ever even speaking to the doctor in the first place. In other words, this was a $400 charge just to reserve time to speak to the doctor for a consultation. Needless to say, we never got in, and we never will. This is completely out of sync with other reviews. I'm not sure if it's due to the nature of the consultation we need to have, but to charge a POTENTIAL patient $400 before even having a consultation is completely unheard of and inappropriate. Dr. Emison's practice may be fine for your child's wisdom teeth or getting a decent cleaning judging by the reviews, but anything beyond that, you're best looking elsewhere.

Dr. John Wesley Emison was referred to us by our children's orthodontist. He is extremely greedy and his office manager Kathy is very rude and unprofessional when it comes to be caught for her over charges "mistakes". Our son was the victim of a horrific experience by this doctor and his unethical business practices.
