O'Connor Dental Surgery: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Excellent service.
Thank You Salwa for your kind feedback and trust in O'Connor Dental Surgery and Dr Padma Yarlagadda
Negative experience: The worst dentist i have ever seen in my life, she broke my second molar thooth first time, and she said it was accident, I dont know what kind of accident is that, second time she tried to filled up my up second molar tooth, and she missed up, now if I drink cold or hotter I feel very sensitive. I hate to even see her face the Indian lady who owns the dentist. NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL GUYS.
Ibsa, We’re sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with your experience. According to our records, your fillings were completed in a single visit three months ago, not over two separate appointments as mentioned. There was no indication or report of a broken tooth during or after your treatment.
To clarify, sensitivity following a filling can sometimes occur due to the existing condition of the tooth rather than the procedure itself. As this was not raised with us at the time, we had no opportunity to review or assist you further.
Even though some time has passed, we would be happy to discuss your concerns and review your treatment in person if you wish to contact us directly.
Negative experience: Had a bad experience with them
Hi Kaira, we are unable to find you in our system or our records. However, if you are a patient of O'Connor Dental Surgery, please do reach out to us to resolve any concerns.
Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend this dentist enough. Everyone at the clinic was super friendly and welcoming — just genuinely lovely people. The work they did was professional, and you could tell the staff all worked really well together. It made the whole experience feel smooth and comfortable. Honestly, such a good vibe all around.
Fantastic experience: Dr Padma was very professional and understanding. The wisdom tooth was extracted easily and she explained the process very clearly and thoroughly. There was no complications.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Gurdeep! We're delighted that Dr Padma made your wisdom tooth extraction a smooth and reassuring experience. She always strives to ensure patients feel well-informed and comfortable every step of the way. We’re so glad there were no complications, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Wishing you a continued smooth recovery!
Fantastic experience: Definitely a 10/10 experience. Both of the two dentists are so nice. They explain the procedure during the surgery so you feel safe. I didn’t expect a cavity so I didn’t book enough time for the appointment. But Dr. Padma still kindly adjust enough time to go through my filling. Really appreciate that. Definitely will recommend this place to my friends
Fantastic experience: Love doctor Padma. She is so polite and very good at her work.
Fantastic experience: I visited O'Connor Dentist on 02/1/2025 for checkup and it’s my first time visit. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the friendly and welcoming staff. Dr. Tara adds was professional, gentle, and explained everything clearly. The clinic was modern and clean, and I appreciated the use of the facilities . Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my experience and would highly recommend O'Connor Dentist to anyone seeking quality dental care and at reasonable prices.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled you had a positive experience with us at O'Connor Dentist. Your kind words about our modern and clean clinic and your satisfaction with our facilities mean a lot to us. We're grateful for your recommendation and look forward to serving you again! (for info, the treating dentist is Dr Padma. It seems your auto speller got it as Dr Tara)
Fantastic experience: Very kind and gentle with treatment. Explains the problem very clearly.overall we had a very good experience everytime we visit.
Thank you Arvind, so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you've had a positive experience with us. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to care for you at every visit!
Negative experience: I did infill in there, and the teeth I did is now still soaring. But before I did, I felt nothing. I am so frustrated and I went back once and the dentist was still charging me the fee which makes it become my problem. Very annoying.(this is my review 2 months ago) A follow up review, so I went to another dentist. I did the x ray again and the dentist said the surface of the new infill is not smooth so the food will go inside the gap. So when I use floss, the floss is smelly. He told me to remove my new infill and replace a new one. The whole operation took me nearly an hour and I have to pay an extra 250 bucks. infilling should be a very common practice for a dentist. And the removal of infill is not a funny thing, I didn’t count how many injection I took for this operation. I shouldn’t have suffered this if I chose the correct dental at the first place.

Positive experience: Polite, kind dentist but not as thorough as others. Didn't explain everything very much. I rang about wanting to get take home whitening kits made after a check up and clean appointment, had to keep asking for information about teeth whitening during and after the check up. Because of this didn't have impressions taken at the same time as check up as the receptionist told me would occur. Waste of time, so going elsewhere.
Many thanks for your review which will help us to improve our services.
Apologies for the inconvenience and not able to provide the information about tooth whitening to your expectation.
If you wouldn’t mind, can I call you to discuss further. we look forwarding to speaking with you.
