Based on my experiences over the last few months, I can’t speak highly enough of Dr Cole. After several oral maxillofacial surgeons had refused my case owing to the risks involved, Dr Cole was the only dental surgeon I was able to locate (in Auckland) who was willing and competent enough to operate. He provided me with 2 generous (late evening) phone consultations prior to surgery, to ensure he understood all key details, and that we were on the same page. This was very impressive and reassuring. On the day of my surgery, he was very welcoming and congenial, with a genuine and caring nature. I have been exposed to more than enough dental surgery over the years to recognise that his surgical skills are superb and thoroughly outstanding. He managed the extraction of my troublesome ceramic implant with great care and expertise, and he was most meticulous with all the surgical steps. As a result, I had zero bleeding post-surgery and did not require any pain relief meds that afternoon or night. I owe a very high debt of gratitude to Dr Cole and would always turn to him first, for any future dental surgery.
