UTHealth Houston Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons

Dr. Wong did a wonderful job with my surgery. He answered all my questions and explained everything about the surgery. I drove 80 miles round trip to see Dr. Wong. I went for initial visit, pre-op, surgery, and post-op. I would highly recommend Dr. Wong.

Dr. Melville was very professional & knew exactly what was happening with my mouth. He presented 3 solutions & recommended 1 more strongly than the other 2 although I think I may choose option 2. I am confident of his skills. I had a question & emailed him that day & he responded quickly.

I give this place 5 stars
In 2008 at age 13 this small growth grew on my jaw and I didn’t think much of it because at the time my dad was fighting cancer, so I just shrugged it off. As the years went by the growth got bigger and I realized something wasn’t right. I didn’t tell my mom because I didn’t think she would understand. When my mom begin to notice it, she helped me look for a doctor that would look at it and between 2017 - 2021 we kept looking for a doctor and no body wanted to help us and to see what my growth is. I was starting to give up and just let it be there because again no body wanted to help me. Finally in June 2021 I decided to try again and I found this place and Dr Shum, the entire time I am waiting on dr Shum. I’m telling my mom that he’s not going to help me and he will send me away to another doctor that won’t help me. Every doctor I saw would instantly send me to someone else by passing the bucket on me. He had me get Ex-Rays done of my jaw and he finally came back with the results that I have been waiting for the past 13 years. It was an Osteoma a bone tumor that was growing on my jaw and how it got there is unknown. I was so excited and happy that he finally gave me what it was but at the same time I was worried about what was going to happen next. Dr Shum told me that it needs to come out and that we will need to perform a surgery to have it removed. In July 2021 dr Shum finally removed the growth from my jaw that was growing for the past 13 years, the surgery was supposed to last 2 hours but because the growth was sitting there to long, it cost some minor problems to my jaw so they kept me in there for 4 hours instead they had to repair some curves were the growth was located but I looked at the bright side of things. It was a ginormous weight off my jaw because that thing was causing a lot of discomfort and heavy weight on my jaw. Till this day I still have the surgical scare but it doesn't really matter to me because I am extremely thankful to dr Shum for helping me and finally giving me the answers that I have been desperately needing that I could never get from a doctor. Before my jaw was always hurting and I would get constant pinched nerves in my neck due to the growth. All that pain finally stopped but I do get pinched nerves once in a while but not has bad as before.
Thank you so much Dr Shum I really appreciate you helping me and taking the time to help me when no other doctor wouldn’t.
5 stars for this doctors office.

I came to see Dr. Woernley after a horrible experience with another oral surgeon. I can’t thank Dr. Woernley and his team enough for the kindness and thorough care they gave my son. Dr. Woernley’s knowledgeable experience and bedside manner sets him apart from other physicians. I wish all doctors treated patients like this. Thank you so much Dr. Woernley!

Dr Shum creates major delays for almost every procedure/ surgery he does. The office staff does not answer the phones and rarely ever return a call. My quality of life has been put on hold for 2 years thanks to this office.

Excellent place they listen to my Issues and tell me what the next step will be to help me. They were very patient and very helpful. I definitely recommend.

Physicians and residents are great but support staff and inability to receive outside lab images or data cause unexpected duplicate testing.

High Recommend, staff is so very helpful and friendly. Dr. Demian is great oral surgeon with the reconstruction of my jaw. I had nothing but great things with my experience at this office. Adam Beltran

Everyone was very kind and helpful. All my questions were answered and some I did not think to ask.

Dr Damien is great, the admin side not so great. I’ve been an established patient of his for about 9-10 yrs. There always seems to be some sort of scheduling issue. I’ve visit him a couple of times for 6 month/yearly follow ups and been told when I’m there that he’s unavailable. They give me the option to reschedule or see a resident. Since I only see him twice a year, it’d be nice to know about the last minute change before I showed up

My appointments usually always start 30 min or an hour after my appointment time. I had a procedure yesterday scheduled for 1: 30 and it started at 2: 30. He left halfway for another appointment and let his resident finish the job. Nothing against the resident or Dr Damien but I expect the doctor to perform my procedure from start to finish and due to scheduling, that didn’t happen. Having that procedure anxiety beforehand and watching this unfold was pretty disappointing.

Dr. Nadarajah Vigneswaran is very detailed person and pays attention to details. He will follow up with you personally. Thumbs up

Finally oral surgeons that are willing to help those of us who have several health problems and allergies I am so very grateful

Dr. Mellville explained the risk/reward of extracting two bothersome and painful teeth, and decided against performing the extractions, in an abundance of caution, due to the possibility of reactivating the osteo necrosis of my jaw. Instead, he advised me that my dentist should be able to remedy the problem. If the necrosis had been resurrected, I would have been devastated! Thank you Dr. Mellville for putting my health and wellbeing above the almighty dollar.

I had absolute peace of mind in the hands of very friendly professional focused people - Some of the best in the world, I believe.

We are working with Dr Busaidy, has been a truly positive experience from the first day of consultation. Dr Busaidy is very reassuring, extremely skilled and handled our complex case with expertise. With him and his team we are confident of the best possible outcomes.

I am trying to get my refund back. I keep calling the office and no one answers. A month ago someone did answer and I told her about my refund and she said that it will take 2 weeks to get my money back. I was fine with that but it’s been a month already and still have not received my money. I keep calling the office and leaving messages and still no answer or no one calls back. I am so frustrated, I did receive good service for my other kid with Dr. Pearl for his wisdom teeth removal it the staff I’m questioning why they can’t provide the same service.
