Patient Reviews
What our patients say
Today I took my teenage son to Gateway Children’s Surgery Center for the first time for a pre-op appointment to have his wisdom teeth removed. I have to admit I was skeptical because I’d never heard of this center and it’s not in a big hospital complex or on a major highway.. But I was immediately impressed with the facility from the minute we walked in the door. The staff, nurses and doctors were all very professional, kind and caring and the center itself looked brand new. Everything was clean, organized and highly professional. The oral surgeon I met was very professional and still genuine and compassionate and answered all my questions. I discovered they specialize in general anesthesia dentistry, oral surgery, and comprehensive pediatric and special needs dental care
I myself have had numerous major surgeries at some of the top hospitals in the Midwest and I found GCSC to be top notch with an impressive triage, massive pre-op, two operating rooms and post-op area that easily compared to BJC West and Center for Advanced Medicine. I feel relieved and blessed to have found this surgical center for my son and complete confidence in their doctors, nurses and staff to take great care of him. I will be recommending GCSC to friends, family and neighbors because this is a medical facility that any parent would be blessed to take their children too. God Bless
I brought my sister here to get her wisdom teeth out. From the beginning, they were so kind, patient, and good about explaining every step of the process. Everyone from the front desk, the nurses, the doctors were so nice and her care was efficient and fast. She literally had a great time getting her wisdom teeth out because of how good the care was. Heavily recommend, such an amazing patient experience.
Amazing experience here! I almost didn't give them a chance because of some of the negative reviews but they were absolutely incredible in every way! My son and I are both autistic so finding good care with people that understand how to work with neurodivergent individuals is really important to me! From start to finish (between his exam and his surgery) the staff was kind, informative, and patient! They did everything they could to keep as much of his natural teeth as they could even though all the work needed done on baby teeth. They even did a full cleaning on his remaining teeth while he was under anesthesia so he won't need another cleaning for 6 months. I'm really impressed with this place and can't recommend it enough!
We had the best visit.. My autistic son had an appoiment there to be scheduled for surgery and I have to say your front desk ladies are TOP TEIR give them a bonus they had smiles as soon as we walked in they were super friendly and helpful they the reason I'm leaving thus review I never leave reviews ever but thise girls were just amazing the nurse who spoke with us was super patient with my autistic pausing everytime he had something to say even when it wasn't about his appoiment she went over everything that woukd be happening on surgery day and his medical history making sure to answer all questions we we had and address any concerns we had the dentist was super nice to my son making sure to let him know what she was doing and asking him before doing it even making sure to ensure him he was doing an awsome job it really was just the best doctors visit we've ever had ill update on Nov 20th 2026 after his surgery but tobthis point I woukd 100% take any of my children to this office!
