Gifford Timothy W DDS

Would not hesitate to recommend Dr Gifford and his staff! Took my daughter for a gum graft due to gum reseeding on a lower front tooth. Klea the receptionist was very friendly and welcoming, she handled all the insurance & payments flawlessly. Dr Gifford explained everything and put my daughter at ease. There were a few follow up appointments and everything healed nicely. She only took ibuprofen after the initial surgery and no pain thereafter.

Dr. Gifford and is office staff are the best! I went in for an implant and he was very thorough with explaining all that he was going to do, costs, etc. I paid for the procedure and started the process. However, due to some other issues with my teeth, I eventually decided to have a bridge instead of an implant. I figured that since I signed a contract with Dr. Gifford that the money I paid him (and my insurance paid him) would be lost. When I called the office to discuss my issue, I could not have been happier! Dr. Gifford was VERY accommodating and immediately refunded me AND my insurance company in full! Even after spending his time working on my mouth! Klea his receptionist was sweet and helpful and took care of everything right away and I had my refund within days! I would not hesitate to go back and let Dr. Gifford and his staff perform another dental procedure on me if needed! They are awesome and I will be recommending Dr. Gifford to all my friends!

Dr. Gifford cares about peoples HEALTH. I made the mistake of going to Mexico for major dental surgery. This quickly became infected. I was referred to Dr. Gifford, and he phoned me himself! When he phoned me, I was already on a plane back to Mexico. When I told Dr. Gifford this, without hesitation, and without judgement, he spent time to advise me based on the x-​rays he’d seen of me. I was so grateful for his generosity! Two weeks later, when this same issue began having problems (yet again), I went straight to see Dr. Gifford. I needed a Dr. who was actually on my side. Any other Dentist I had seen regarding this issue had given me bad attitude about going to Mexico, and had spoken down to me (All I can say is… walk a mile in my shoes and see what crazy decisions you make). But I felt no judgement from Dr. Gifford, he treated me as an equal, and laid down the information in a way I could understand. He’s obviously smart, has an unusually fast moving mental capacity, and seems super confident in a humble way… RARE in the medical field. I had been through so much that I was regularly loosing sleep, and beginning to panic. Dr. Gifford was a great comfort to me. Thank You Dr. Gifford!

I have been to Dr. Gifford’s office several times. Starting from the front office to the back office the place is spotless and smells fresh. You don’t even think you are in dr office. Dr. Gifford takes his time to talk to you about every possible treatments and also pros and cons for each procedure. He is very friendly and patient with his patients even the kids. Pts don’t need to wait for hours for their appointment. Highly recommend him and his team. A+

Dr Gifford took his time and explained what I should expect before, during and after my teeth extraction. The procedure went really well and I will be having two more procedures this year with Dr. Gifford.
His assistant was very helpful, and they worked very well with my dental insurance provider.
All in all, I am very pleased with Dr. Gifford and his staff and will continue to recommend him to friends and family.

I’ve had two dental surgeries this year and will be having one more next year. Dr. Gifford takes the time to fully explain everything pre-​, during and post-​operation, to make sure you understand whether your visit is for something you want or something you need (a big difference when it comes to what insurance will cover!), and, most importantly, to make you feel comfortable and at ease before, during and after any procedure. Never was anything omitted, never was there a problem of any kind, and my general dentist (who I’ve been going to my whole life) thinks the surgeries performed by Dr. Gifford are excellent.
They did make one mistake — the amount they said I owed for the second surgery. But because it was their mistake they took care of me, discounting some of the cost and giving me plenty of time to pay.
I’ve recommended Dr. Gifford to all my friends and family and do the same to you!

Dr. Gifford had some procedures performed on me and prescribed antibiotics for me to take. Without checking my medical file or consulting me he prescribed an antibiotic that I am highly allergic to, which caused a very serious reaction. I had to see my family physician for treatment. If he had simply looked at my file or even checked my record for the previous 2 procedures he performed on me he would have seen this allergy.
Furthermore, Dr. Gifford requires payment up front. He charged me $ 140.00 then $ 863.00. After these charges were submitted to my insurance company, I found out that the contracted amounts for these procedures are only $ 65.00 and $ 258.00. When I asked him why he charged me so much more he told me he was no longer a provider for my insurance company. I asked since when but he couldn’t tell me. I asked why I wasn’t informed. He said «I don’t do that.» So I called my insurance company to see when he stopped being a provider and they confirmed that HE IS STILL AN ACTIVE PROVIDER. Needless to say, my insurance company has filed a formal complaint against his office.
