Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialists South Carolina: Matthew R. Barefoot, DDS, MD

Perry Tompkins

My husband had a very bad experience with Dr. Barefoot and his team. To begin with, we were quoted for an hour of surgery, but then charged an additional $300 for 13 extra minutes of anesthesia. They explained that we were only charged for 45 minutes of anesthesia, despite being told it would be an hour of surgery from the beginning of consults. After enduring a month of excruciating pain, he returned to address what might have been an infection or dry socket. They prescribed another week of antibiotics.

He was still in so much pain and called on a Friday to ask about getting a few more days of antibiotics. They told him they would call it in. . we went to pick up on Saturday and they must have forgot…. . it didn’t get called in until Monday morning.

However, when he went in for a final check on a Wednesday… Dr. Barefoot didn't even see him to assess the progress or confirm if the infection was gone. Instead, the assistant took a quick look and mentioned it should be healed and instructed him to check back in with front desk to pay remaining balance. It's evident that their priority lies in overcharging patients rather than prioritizing their wellbeing. We're extremely disappointed with the amount of money we spent at this practice for him to still be in so much pain almost 2 months after surgery and would not recommend it.

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Barefoot and his team. I was absolutely petrified to get all four of my wisdom teeth done. Dr. Barefoot reassured me and his team definitely helped quell my nerves, and they worked with my schedule which was super helpful. I was in and out in under an hour, with surprisingly little pain. A day later and I feel great.

I had heard so many horror stories over the years about getting your wisdom teeth out, I put it off for so long. Was so glad to find Dr. Barefoot and get it done finally, and can honestly say his team did a great job listening to my concerns and minimizing pain and following up to make sure I was doing well. Really grateful for their professionalism and kindness. Would absolutely recommend to anyone. Thank you so much!

Dr. Barefoot did an amazing and incredibly efficient job on my wisdom teeth removal. Also, all of the staff members I talked to were really helpful and super kind.
