"I have been to several endodontist, sadly, but that is my fault. The one’s that I went to in the past had the “surgeon’s attitude” of bedside manner. Surf City made me feel comfortable for the time that I stepped through the door. They took time to listen to my concerns, they prepared a treatment plan, and performed that plan amazingly. I cannot imagine going anywhere else, if I need further care in the future."

"I had an absolutely OUTSTANDING experience with Dr. Olson at Surf City Endodontics. Dr. Olson took the time to explain my case thoroughly and answered all of my questions, which immediately put me at ease. He uses advanced technology like CBCT imaging and high-powered microscopes, and I truly felt like I was in expert hands. ( I needed a re-treat root canal, which I had never heard of, and I was very nervous about this procedure.) Nicole in the front office was very nice and helped me with my insurance and easily scheduled my appointments. The assistant, Brittany, clearly explained everything that was going to happen. She was so gentle and made sure I was comfortable the entire time - this really put me at ease. The office is beautiful, bright and super clean. I enjoyed the relaxing music. Best of all, I felt NO PAIN during the entire procedure - even the injections were PAINLESS!! Dr. Olson is awesome. This office exceeded all of my expectations. I will highly recommend them to all of my friends and family!🦷😀"
