Patrick Duffy DDS MD

I just had my wisdom teeth extracted by Dr. Duffy yesterday, so this is super fresh in my mind.
I was referred to Dr. Duffy’s office by my general dentist, and I went in for a consult on April 17 and then scheduled my wisdom teeth surgery for May 15, almost exactly a month later.
During the consult Dr. Duffy went through the routine questions asking me about my health history. He also went above and beyond explaining what wisdom teeth are, why it’s a good idea to take them out, implications of not taking them out, etc. He was an easygoing guy and was very straightforward with everything involving my dental health.
Now, morning of my actual surgery, Dr. Duffy came out and greeted my dad (my designated driver for the day) and gave us a complete rundown of what to do post-​surgery. The surgery itself was fairly painless, they sedated me and the next thing I knew I was waking up and the surgery was done.
I’m in the recovery stages right now and so far so good… the bleeding stopped when Dr. Duffy predicted it would and I’m trying my best to follow all of his instructions religiously. They give you a little bag with gauze, prescriptions, and instructions for post-​op care.
Also around 5:00PM the day of my surgery Dr. Duffy gave me a follow-​up call to check in on how I was doing. I really appreciated that personal touch and it made me feel like he genuinely cared about how I was feeling.

I did research online and found Dr. Patrick. I had two supernumerary teeth, which is not very normal. Patrick Duffy is a top notch oral surgeon and he is very sophisticated. I got my five teeth and two supernumerary teeth extracted by him successfully. No tissue or nerve was damaged even though the procedure was so complicated. His entire team is professional and nice.
He is very patient and cares about his patient. Two weeks after the surgery, he always emails me back and calls me whenever I have some concerns about my teeth or other health related questions.
My family members will go see him if they need any extraction. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you very much, Dr. Duffy!

I was referred to Dr. Duffy by my dentist for wisdom tooth extraction. The initial check up was about 2 weeks ago. Dr. Duffy went thru the surgery process with me throughout so that i understand the situation and potential risks. He also provided some dental health suggestions specific to my case outside the scope of this surgery, which i think very helpful and am seriously considering.
The actual surgery took place this morning. I think it maybe important to highlight that it was a painless process. The anesthesia takes effect very quickly. Prior to the operation, Dr. Duffy explained in details about the healing process and medicine instructions to me and my wife. I am strictly following it and hope to make the healing process as painless as possible, too.
Dr. Duffy impressed my by calling around 5pm today to following up on my status. He offer his cell number in case any situation happen during the weekend as the surgery was on Friday. I think he is very responsible and caring doctor.
it has been only 14 hours since i got the wisdom tooth done. I hope the remaining healing process can be as smooth as the surgery itself. I may update later.
Overall, I recommend Dr. Duffy, not only because he is a nice guy, but also I think he is very experienced and knows what he is doing.

Wisdom teeth extraction review:
After extensive search for a dentist who is in my dental network (Cigna Dental) I decided to make a appointment with Dr. Duffy solely based on reviews here. That is why I feel obligated to write one.
I called 3 weeks ago to schedule consultation regarding extraction of my wisdom teeth and I have been offered to come in the following Monday. Over the phone, they were informative, confirmed that they are in my network and answered all my questions. They asked me do I have a panoramic x-​ray and If I don’t I will have to take one in theirs office.
When I arrived, since I have already filled out the form online I just had to sign the documents. I am very happy that they did not insist on obtaining a SSN number from me even though there were a filed in the form (In most cases they don’t need SSN and I hate when they ask for it and don’t even know why).
Office is a bit dated and haven’t left any wow impression on me, but people is what matters, not walls.
Doctor came in to the room and went try number of things with me regarding my medical and dental history. After that he took panoramic x-​ray and start going over my situation.
That was the most impressing part. He went over and beyond explaining why we have wisdom teeth, whats their function, what happens after they are extracted, etc (Without me asking about it). He explained all the options and the procedure itself.
He wasn’t pushy that I have to extracted them, he was even a bit annoying telling me that after hearing all the options I should go home and think what I should do, when and how.
Dr. Duffy spent a lots of time with me covering everything and I never felt that he is rushing or something.
After a week I came to my scheduled appointment for the extraction. You have to bring a dedicated adult driver which will take you home and get all the post operative instructions. Doctor went over those before my surgery.
Surgery itself went smooth, of course I don’t remember anything but it was done within 40min.
Today is a week after it and I feel good. Started eating solid food two days ago and haven’t had need for pain killers last 3 days.
My biggest fear was IV anesthesia since it was my first time and didn’t know what to expect. But since I had a good experience this time, don’t have that fear any more.
Overall I highly recommend Patrick Duffy and his stuff and I say thank you!
Please let me know if anyone has any specific question regarding my experience.

Dr. Duffy knows what he’s doing and I would recommend him to any of my family or friends. I had to get two of my wisdom teeth extracted and Was told there was a certain amount of risk of damaging a nerve during the procedure due to the location of one of the wisdoms. I didn’t really care about the odds of that happening. All I needed to know was that he could pull it off which he told me he could. The procedure took one and a half hours, twice the amount of the average time because Dr. Duffy wanted to take it a little slower to ensure he didn’t damage a nerve. Both wisdoms were extracted successfully without issue. He even followed up with a call later that day to make sure I was doing ok. Thanks Dr. Duffy!

Dr. Duffy and his assistants are wonderful. I had to get my last wisdom tooth, upper right, extracted. I was very nervous since they would have to cut into my gums and was worried about the pain and healing process. We met once for an exam and did the extraction a couple months later. It was exactly like he said. Quick and painless. I didn’t even know anything happened because the anesthesia worked so quickly. Everything was quick and easy. I also was so surprised by how fast I healed. Dr. Duffy and his staff are very friendly and answered all my questions. If I ever need to have dental surgery, I will definitely return here. Thank you!

Dr. Patrick Duffy is an excellent surgeon and very hands-​on. He’s a best in class when it comes to oral surgery. The idea of going to a dentist haunts me. And this being my first surgery, I was little anxious about it. However, the overall experience was very comfortable and relaxing.
I was recommended by my dentist to get my 3 wisdom extracted and was referred to Dr. Duffy. The first meeting (upon appointment) was a thorough consultation. Dr. Duffy explained the mechanics of wisdom teeth, how the procedure will take place, what needs to be done after, etc.
On the appointment day, my ride and I were explained the do’s and don’ts post surgery, medications, what needs to be done for next week, etc. The surgery started on time and I was engaged in conversation while the sedative took its effect. The next thing I know is that the surgery is done and I’m ready to go to home. It was painless. Following up withe proper medications taken on time, I never felt any pain.
Dr. Duffy called up that evening to see how I was doing and revised me on what needs to be done for next couple of days. He’s a very approachable doctor and will always make sure that you feel comfortable.
I then went for a follow up after a week. It was a quick examination and Dr. Duffy as usual was very friendly. Gave green lights to resume back to normal.
He’s a master in his work. If I have to recommend someone for oral surgery, I’ll refer to Dr. Duffy for sure.
Thank you Dr. Duffy!

Best clinic you could go to!
Dr. Duffy and his team extracted all four of my wisdom teeth this morning. I was really worried about the procedure and recovery. But the manner in which Patrick Duffy and Jackie handled the entire process was extremely pleasant. His entire team is composed of the nicest, most professional and kind individuals that one could wish for when going in for oral surgery. Dr. Duffy is a top notch doctor who knows the fine balance between professionalism and approachability. I could not recommend Patrick Duffy and his team enough. It’s obvious they have the patient’s best interest in mind and Jackie really does all she can to minimize out of pocket spending. They’re spectacular.
So I went in and after taking care of some basic paperwork, Duffy explained after care to my girlfriend and no more than five minutes later was I sitting in a chair, sharing great conversation with Duffy and the nurse. It really put my mind at ease. When they put in the IV, I wasn’t awake for very long. Next thinkg I know, I’m waking up, taking a selfie with Duffy’s AWESOME team. One of the nurses, (I think her name Victoria?) was awesome, took a video for me. Afterwards, Dr. Duffy helped walk me to the car and sent me on my way. He even called a few hours later to make sure I was okay.
Seriously, I could not have asked for a better experience. Dr. Duffy and his team absolutely rock!

I was referred to Dr. Duffy for my wisdom teeth extraction by my dentist. The process was quick & painless! I was very nervous about the whole procedure but Dr. Duffy was great at explaining everything, post operation care, meds, etc.
I would have taken 1 star off for his front receptionist as she was not the friendliest but she was such a small part of the overall process .
I hope not to need another oral surgery but would refer anyone that needs one to Dr. Duffy!

As things happened, I did have to return to Dr. Duffy to have my troublesome tooth extracted. He did it today, and it was a painless and easy process! First, the doctor met with my designated driver and me, and thoroughly explained what was going to happen and the post operative care, medications, and things to watch for. After we got started, he engaged me in lightweight conversation to help relax me while the sedative was taking effect. The process itself was pretty fast and totally painless.
I highly recommend Dr. Duffy to anyone who needs oral or maxillary surgery. He is simply the best, and that is the consensus of everyone who has reviewed him on Unilocal including myself.

I’ve always been terrified at the prospect of getting my wisdom teeth pulled out. The very idea of seeing the doctor force my jaws open and carve into my gums made me shudder. As a self-​conscious high school student, I was also equally terrified (it not more so) of going to school after surgery, for I knew that walking around school with chipmunk cheeks was going to warrant a lot of unnecessary laughter at a grumpy, drugged me.
Luckily for me, after hearing from my friends about a dental surgeon by the name of Dr. Duffy, I decided to visit him for a consultation. I went to his office and filled out a couple of quick forms. Shortly after handing my forms to the receptionist, Dr. Duffy came out to meet my dad and I. He made me very comfortable and at home, which is weird because in my mind the dental surgeon’s office is the last place I’d expect to find hospitality. When I confessed I was scared for the operation, Dr. Duffy told me to not to worry. He said everything was going to be OK and that I was hardly going to feel a thing. Usually when doctors tell me this I go, «yea yea, whatever! You’re just saying that to make me feel better but you’re not telling the truth and the entire treatment is gonna hurt like crazy!» But actually… for Dr. Duffy, that’s not the case. Dr. Duffy is the type of person you would trust with not only your teeth, but your life. As dramatic as that sounds, he is that sincere. When you meet him, you will know what I mean.
The day of the operation was uneventful. While I laid back in the chair and waited for it to completely flatten, Dr. Duffy asked me even more questions about my hobbies and interests. The next thing I knew, I woke up from the operation with all four impacted wisdom teeth removed (yea, I’m lucky aren’t I?) and the chipmunk cheeks to prove it! I ate a lot of frozen yogurt that week.
I wish this review could be more interesting. But it’s really quite uneventful because the operation and healing process themselves were uneventful. And that’s what you want, right? A wisdom teeth removal operation that is quick, uneventful, without complications, and routinely done by the experienced Dr. Duffy. Go visit him now if you want to lose some teeth in order to keep all of them.

13 years ago my dentist told me I should get my wisdom teeth pulled but they never bothered me so I left them alone. 13 years later after a recent check up one is decaying and my dentist told me I might as well get it pulled and the other 3. I really didnt want to but I am not getting any younger so I might as well bite the bullet and do it. I was referred to Dr. Duffy and I am so glad I did! The staff here is very friendly and nice! My consult with Dr. Duffy was very informative and he was very knowledgeable about everything from beginning to end. Day of the procedure was a blink of an eye. Before the procedure Dr. Duffy went over some other stuff and as nervous as I was I was finally a little more calm. The procedure was suppose to take an hour to an hour and a half but he was done in about 30 minutes. It was quick and painless! I would defin recommend Dr. Duffy and his staff!

Dr. Duffy did a great job with my wisdom tooth extraction and bone graft. The surgery was painless and I had a fast recovery. He was very responsive to questions and concerns.

What a breath of fresh air after a not so awesome experience with an unnamed oral surgery office. I searched for local oral surgeons, and found him on a Google search. I called the office and set up a consultation. Dr. Duffy was very personable, and explained everything in a way that I could easily understand. I felt like I was a valued guest at his office at all times. I set up the surgery and had my 3^rd molars removed, and Dr. Duffy called me a few hours after surgery to make sure I was comfortable. The entire process was a breeze, and I liked how personal he made the experience.
Thank you to the girls at the front, great service!

This was the very first time, I really had any oral surgery and believe I was scared… But Dr. Patrick Duffy was so informative, he provided everything on the do’s and don’ts. He was really knowledgeable about the surgery and reassured me for my teeth health that this was a DEFINITE to get done. since I had ongoing infections on the left side of my wisdom tooth. At first, I was going to get only two done based on my budget. but Dr. Duffy was awesome enough to suggest a different payment option. They also used care credit. I am only 2 days post op surgery. and I feel better much more better than having those ongoing infections. Even Dr. Duffy has kept in touch with me to make sure that my healing process is going well! Thank you Dr. Duffy for the information, knowledge and promotion great dental health.
I will definitely refer people here or even come here for my braces in the future.
