I love Dr. Koslin!!! He saved my life. For 10 years, I went to over 30 Drs and 29 surgeries. plus had my mouth wired shut 3 times. Then was referred to Dr. Koslin by Dr Crow, in Decatur. my jaw opened like a door. it was like soldered like a hinge on the left side. I hated going out, especially to eat, no way. Dr. Koslin took time to listen to me and I listened hard when he was talking to me. He said he could help me and fix my jaw and he did!!! Highly recommend!!!! All the staff was always nice and helpful. Pray I never have anymore surgeries but if I do, Dr. Koslin is the man to do the job right the first time. Thank You, Lord, for letting me find Dr Koslin, it was about a 3 hour drive one way. If I could go back and change anything, I would have found Dr. Koslin before all the other Drs and surgeries. so much anesthesia straightened my natural curly hair, so then ,I would still have my curls! Really amazed and ecstatic that I could eat normal again!!! Thank you and blessings to all the staff and Dr. Koslin!!! You changed my life! You gave my life back to me!!! Bless you!!!!!

If you need any kind of Oral Surgery, you will not regret putting your trust in Koslin & Kahn. I have used them for several procedures, and have always been treated with the best possible care. Thank you!

Had complicated wisdom teeth extractions with Dr Kahn and couldn't recommend this group enough. Dr Kahn made sure I was comfortable during a very long and difficult extraction, and did an excellent job on closure. I was back to work on post op day 4. I had to go through medical insurance, and my insurance was requiring an unexpected consult prior to paying for my surgery that was scheduled in 24 hours!! Dr koslin kindly made the time to see me at the end of his work day the day before, and we got it done, and he wasn't even the surgeon doing my teeth! These people care about their patients as a whole group. They are incredibly efficient, and knowledgeable. I would trust these guys with my life.

I had my wisdom tooth surgery by Dr. Michael Koslin. The service was excellent, the staff were very friendly and communicated very well. The staff made sure I was very comfortable and relaxing. The Surgey itself went so quick, I didn’t even know it was over. After surgery and next day I still haven’t felt no pain in my mouth before taking pain meds. I definitely recommend coming here for any dental surgery you may have.
