Patient Reviews 

  • “Where do I begin? If you’re looking for an oral surgeon from everything from wisdom teeth to mouth lesions and much more – Dr. Alan Shelhamer is the one for you! The office staff is amazing and so helpful. Everyone is so welcoming and ready to answer any and all of your questions. Dr. Shelhamer’s energetic personality and attentive bedside manner just make the whole experience so easy and painless. Our kids and ourselves have all been seen here and we couldn’t imagine going anywhere else. We refer their office to all of our family and friends as well. If you’re looking into doctors, you need to schedule a consult and see for yourself.” – Theresa S.  5 stars (Yelp 2022)

    “Dr. Shelhamer is the kind of guy who looks you in the eye, explains every detail of the procedure, and answers any questions you may have with confident answers. He even gets a bit excited when you ask interesting questions. He is a down home, kind doctor who values his relationships with his patients. I hope I never have to see him for another procedure, but if I do, I would insist on going to him. The staff is great and very helpful and I highly recommend his practice. Thank you, Dr. Shelhamer.” – Justin B   5 stars (Yelp 2021) 

    “I was referred to Dr. Shelhamer by my son’s dentist after he developed swelling and tremendous pain in his jaw. Dr. Shelhamer and his staff are very professional and made my 9 year old son feel very comfortable and eased his and my worry about the problem. We followed everything Dr. Shelhamer suggested and within 24 hours my son was pain free and most of the swelling was gone. Dr. Shelhamer not only gave me his personal cell phone number in case we had any concerns or questions, but also went out of his way in his personal time to call my wife and explain everything to her that he explained to us during the visit. AMAZING! You and your staff are simply top notch Dr. Shelhamer, we cannot thank you enough!” Ed O. 5 stars (Yelp 2014)
