Patient Review by Glen M
Worth the several-weeks wait for minor dental surgery; the whole procedure being done in a matter of minutes. Doctor Kobakov was friendly and performed my extraction skillfully, very quickly and painlessly. Additionally, the CMOS staff was wonderful and a joy to interact with. An overall thumbs-up experience.

Patient Review by Rob H
Only issue for me was getting another X-ray after having many X-rays with other dentists and then not knowing the extra cost to me getting the X-ray.

Patient Review by Elena O
My 3 yr old developed a thick white rash on the center of her tongue 8 weeks before our appt with the addition of a cluster of blisters that formed on her tongue about a week before our appt. We went through 3 different providers (PCP, Dermatology, and Dentist) before coming to CMOS at the recommendation of our dentist. They filled out the referral form for CMOS and described my daughter's condition, stating that they were referring her for a tongue brush biopsy at CMOS because they don't do biopsies in their office. I called CMOS to make out 7/10 appt the same day I left the dentist, and not only told them what we were being referred for but hand delivered the referral to the office the following week. When we arrived for our appt 5 weeks later the doctor came in, and asked us what we were there for. When I said a tongue brush biopsy he dismissively stated "I don't do those, they're always inconclusive. I do surgical biopsies." After a brief conversation he left the room, my daughter was handed a goody bag, and we were walked out to the reception area with paperwork. Honestly, I'm not sure what the insurance company is being billed for. The referral stated that this appt was for a tongue brush biopsy, so if they don't do them at CMOS I would have expected to receive that information much sooner in advance than as my daughter was sitting in the chair. Furthermore, the doctor didn't do anything but merely talk to us to tell us he doesn't do this procedure, so I'm not sure what he's billing for. To top it off, as we waited for the receptionist to get off the phone one of the medical staff ran out to warn me of a self-inking stamp in my daughter's goody bag that they had given her because they didn't want it "to get all over their couches." I don't understand... I didn't bring ink in for my daughter to play with, it was given to her by staff at CMOS. In the end the receptionist offered my daughter a freeze pop which she appreciated, but I am left with no answers, a medical bill, and am now 5 weeks behind trying to determine what is causing the discomfort on my daughter's tongue. All in all was not a great experience. Would I go back if I needed to for something? Sure, if I had to. But it wasn't a welcoming or friendly experience as I would have hoped.

Having been a patient of Dr. Baran for the past 6 years, I definitely, without reservation, recommend CMOS for all your surgical needs. As a patient you are greeted the moment you come through the door. The assistants are friendly, kind and comforting. They know what they’re doing as they assist the doctor. Kathy Columbus, the office manager, is just a gem. Always smiling and very kind. Dr Baran - can’t say enough about him. Extremely intelligent, kind and caring, and explains procedures well. Dr. Baran is a wonderful surgeon and an even better human. I trust him implicitly with my care. These people are like family if you are a frequent flyer like me.
