Eric D Swanson MD DMD

This review is for Dr. Glyman, there is no separate listing for the actual business or Dr. Glyman for this location.
My orthodontist referred me to Dr. Glyman for an extraction of 4 teeth. They were not wisdom teeth, they were extra teeth, extraction was a last resort but alas, they had to come out since my mouth is too small.
I scheduled my consultation appointment with Dr. Glyman last month for 7:30 a.m., the downside of this location, they don’t give you a courtesy call to remind you about your appointment, so I got there late, I waited an hour to be seen. You can save time by filling out all the forms online, that way when you get to the office, they’ll only need your signature on the paperwork. The receptionist is not very friendly, she doesn’t greet you when you walk in. The assistants on the other hand, total opposite, they’re always very friendly. Dr. Glyman himself is quick but friendly, courteous, and polite, he assured me that it would be an easy procedure and that I had nothing to worry about. His assistant let me know that they’d give me a call in two weeks to schedule my appointment, they had to get authorization from my insurance first. Sure enough, I got that call two weeks later and scheduled the appointment.
I was extremely nervous the day of my oral surgery, I had to be put to sleep. For the oral surgery, I had to go to the Flamingo location since the appointments for the Summerlin location were already taken. The receptionists at the Flamingo location are very friendly and they give you a courtesy call the day before your appointment, Summerlin office, take note. I was called back within 10 minutes of arriving for my appointment, they made sure I hadn’t eaten anything for 8 hours, checked my vitals, Dr. Glyman came in to make sure I was ready, they stuck an IV in my arm, turned on the anesthesia and next thing I know, I woke up in a wheelchair toothless. The procedure felt like it took a minute but it actually took an hour. I felt drowsy the entire day, so I slept and didn’t wake up till later on in the night. Dr. Glyman’s assistant did give me a call in the afternoon to make sure I was doing fine, that was nice of her. When I woke up, I had no pain whatsoever so I didn’t touch any of the painkillers that Dr. Glyman prescribed, I only took the antibiotic.
I had my follow up appointment at 8:00 a.m. today, Dr. Glyman said everything looked great so I could stop taking the antibiotic, I left his office at 8:06 a. m, so I suggest you set an early appointment if you want to get in and out quick. I’m really happy with the office and the painless procedure. I will have to come back to see him again after my orthodontic treatment since I have an impacted wisdom tooth, but I have no hesitation in coming back.

The staff in the front is amazing, very nice and informative. Check in was pretty quick. I recommend u down load the paper work before u go into the office u can either send it right to the office e if u fill it out on line or print it fill it out and take it w/​u it always makes ur visit go faster.
Got into appt. on time and Dr Swanson came into room pretty fast. I liked the fact that he was honest about my daughter holding off until she turns 17 or even18 to get her wisdom teeth out. Wish more Dr’s were like him. Great office great staff.

I came here to have two teeth removed one which was broken so badly it was almost nothing and a wisdom tooth that was way to big, the Dr. was very friendly and speedy and the nurses there where SO AMAZING! its so hard to find nurses with good bedside manner, i cannot tell you how many times i have been to a medical office and had just RUDE nurses. I will definitely recommend this office to everyone.

When I first came to Dr. Swanson, it was to get my wisdom teeth extracted. As an eighteen year-​old about to undergo my first surgery, I was, of course frightened about the whole procedure. No sooner had I voiced my concerns to Dr. Swanson and his excellent team of health care providers, before they immediately started to make me feel comfortable and reassure me about the safety off the procedure. They sympathized with me, and showed that they truly did care about they way that I felt about the whole thing. The problem with heath care providers these days is that most do not seem to actually care about how you feel, choosing to view their work as a business and the patient as a way to make money. Dr. Swanson is unlike those who might fit into that category. He has a deep respect and love for his patients and does what he can to make them feel comfortable and at home.
His extended knowledge and experience with his career is reflected in his work, After leaving the office, there were no complications with the surgery and a quick recovery time. It was a wonderful experience to say the least.
Now, it isn’t just the wonderful work of the Dr. himself, but it is also the way the whole practice operates and represents itself. Once you walk into the doors, it is very easy to forget that you are in the office of an oral surgeon. The place is immaculate, and arranged in a way which is very comfortable and makes one feel at home. The receptionist is friendly and greeted me and my mother with a giant smile, and the dental assistants spoke to me in a manner which was respectful and makes one feel like they are conversing with an old friend. Without a doubt, I would go back there should I ever need anymore work done. If you are looking to have your wisdom teeth extracted or have any other facial surgery done in a clean, friendly and professional environment, then Dr. Swanson is the right Dr. for you.

I have been seeing Dr. Swanson for years, and he is really THE NICEST person/​doctor! He makes you feel very comfortable, like he’s known you forever. He is genuinely concerned about your care.
The wait time is long to get in once you’ve signed in. I have almost left twice because of that because I don’t understand why doctors offices double and triple book appointment times. My time is valuable to me, too, and I don’t think I should have to wait 45 minutes in the waiting room after I’ve signed in. Anyhow, the office is clean, and that is a nice aspect.
I highly recommend requesting Dr. Swanson to anyone who needs a maxillofacial surgeon or TMJ specialist.

So, I came here for none other than to get my wisdom teeth removed. AHH! I have big teeth, so I knew my wisdom teeth were going to be a pain to get out, and they were.
First off, the office is super clean. I appreciate this because if I’m coming here for surgery, I expect the place to be really clean and sanitized. The wait time to be called was a little long. They’re not messing around when they tell you to arrive early. So I get checked in and tell them the last time I ate. Apparently, I was give the wrong information of the hours not to eat before, which is life threatening as I found out from the doctor. So we waited until the time was exactly 8 hours.
After my surgery, I was taken out and the doctor told me just what I had predicted-​my teeth were massive and hard to get out. The workers at the front were really nice and they called me a few days after to see how I was holding up. I was completely swollen for almost a week, and in pain, but I expected that.
When I went for my follow up, Dr. Swanson remembered me and of course my teeth. He was really informative before and after my surgery. I highly recommend him. I have 2 more wisdom teeth, but they were not reachable, and I’m glad he didn’t dig in to try to get them.
The people at this office are all very nice and don’t rush you to sign paperwork. They answer any questions you may have and Dr. Swanson is great!
