Dr. George Sandau

Coming from working in healthcare myself I had a consult with this surgeon. Something didn't feel right the minute I walked in. Always go with that gut feeling. Eventhough I work in healthcare I fell on a temporary difficult time due to domestic violence, my insurance wasn't the best I understand that but temporary. This guy treated me like I didn't deserve his time. He made me feel I couldn't ask questions, it annoyed him. He said I had additional issue not covered by insurance and he wanted $800+ up front from me (not even the case, two days later when consulting with different surgeons, there was no other issue and no way it cleared up in two days). Very unprofessional, bedside manor was the worst I've seen in my 32yrs working in healthcare. And to be fair you should treat all patients with dignity no one is less important because of their life situation. That's having compassion for people which Dr Sandau surely does not!! You could feel the coldness the moment you walked in the door.. October 18, 2023

I've always been very fearful of the dentist let alone an oral surgeon; Dr Sandau was very patient with me and very kind and informative. I highly recommend him for any oral surgery and dental implant surgeries that you might need.

Hello everyone whom is reading this. I'll start off saying I have had very poor luck with dentist. I allowed myself to get into trouble with dental hygiene and also on another note I will never give 5 Stars. That said I believe there was always room for improvement. However, Dr. Sandau proved me wrong. I personally have never felt more comfortable and assured that everything would be alright. I had 3 extractions done and did not feel a thing. Dr. Sandau made sure I was relaxed and at ease always asking every few minutes how I was doing. I personally would recommend him to anyone that would need the same type of procedure. Rest assured Dr. Sandau IS the BEST in the tri-state area.

Dr sandau accused me of seeking narcotics.i was referred by Dr Gacita to have 3 wisdom teeth pulled. I don't want it done Ive being told to get it done. Dr sandau bedside manner is horrific and he made me feel very uncomfortable.

The Best

I was so nervous I thought I was going to pass out literally! The staff there were absolutely amazing! Did everything they could to ease my fears...including playing my favorite music! Dr. Sandau was awesome and explained exactly what he was doing in a gentle and informative manner! I can not say enough about this office!

I had a difficult tooth extraction and bone graft implant and had absolutely no pain throughout the entire surgery even though I opted for local anesthesia. Dr. Sandau explained everything clearly to me and his advice made me opt for this procedure. My recovery has been just as painless and I only took a couple ibuprofens in the first couple days but probably didn’t need it as I never felt pain even when the medicine had worn off. I highly recommend Dr. Sandau and so glad he performed this surgery. I had a tooth that’s roots were in my sinuses and the extraction seemed to have also cured years of sinus issues that this tooth may have been causing! So glad I finally took care of this problem tooth after 25 years of issues! Glad my dentist referred me to Westwood Oral surgery in Woodbury Heights, NJ. The staff was wonderful too and kept me calm the entire procedure! I highly recommend Dr. Sandau! Thank you for fixing this tooth problem!

This doctor is ultimately the best oral surgeon! He treated both of my boys & they both left ironically with HUGE SMILES after oral surgery . He also treated me twice knowing my anxiety was sky high, he knew the exact words to say to relax me!

After being told incorrectly by numerous people in the dental insurance arena that my problem should be handled by Endodentistry, I found my way to Dr. George Sandau, Oral Surgeon, DMD, MD. He correctly diagnosed the heretofore misdiagnosed condition, and clearly stated what needed to be done; extraction of my front crown/tooth #10, bone grafting and the construction of a “flipper” (by a general dentist) which would be worn to conceal my missing front tooth! This would be no simple matter since extraction of #10 required the tedious task of separating it from crown/tooth #11 without cracking or fracturing it. The aforementioned necessitated both tissue and bone regeneration for a period of approximately three (#3) months before the second phase of treatment could be implemented. Specifically, implant, abutment and the creation of a permanent crown. To say the least, I was extremely anxious with the entire ordeal at hand, and especially being put under anesthesia, at age 73, having previously undergone open-heart surgery for mitral valve reconstruction. Dr. Sandau was most sensitive to my anxiety and patiently articulated each detail of what he was doing as he was doing it. He exuded both a quiet calm and a high level of skilled experience that served to both reassure and relax me. He earned my trust! Not only did he take me step-by-step throughout a difficult process, but he was most empathetic while doing so. His skill in diagnosing and treating my condition was truly outstanding and I would recommend him without reservation. -S.L.H.

Dr. Sandau has removed both of my teenagers wisdom teeth. On both occasions, Dr. Sandau and his team answered all of our questions and gave each child the best of care and service. They are also extremely thorough with care and prescription info afterwards. We felt that our kids were in amazing hands. Thank you!

Dr, Sandau has given me relief from the pain I had for 9 months due to a growth in my lower gum. He was understanding and let me now just what he was doing before he did it. I can now eat with my denture in. What a relief! I would highly recommend Dr. Sandau to family and friends, no question!

Dr. Sandau is very thorough he explains the problem and lays out the options and works with you to determine what the best choice is for you. He makes sure you're comfortable during the procedure and he goes over the aftercare instructions. The office is very clean and the staff is courteous and helpful!

Worst experience my child ever had. Very unprofessional .
