Patient Testimonials

  • Great Experience

    Is The first time that I went to Carolinas Center for Oral and Facial Surgery . It was a great experience all the team members were friendly and kind since you opened the door, and the doctor assistant was kind, friendly, and knows how to treat a patient. Dr. Erik Reitter was great, he explained a detail about your problem easily to understand. Was a great experience.

  • High Standards of Care

    Dr. Reitter is the best. My husband, son and I have all received the best possible care from Dr. Reitter in both emergency and non-emergency situations. He has a wonderful bedside manner and truly takes the time to listen to his patients. We would not even consider seeing another provider and we appreciate his high standards of care.

  • Can't Thank Him Enough.

    Dr. Reitter deals with people who are in chronic pain and I am one of them. I was not my best self during the appointment (to say the least) and he and his staff showed me nothing but kindness and empathy. He is one of the only specialists in the area who can truly treat all of my pain - I can't thank him enough for helping me. I thought being a surgeon he would try to get me to have surgery but he actually really focused on habits n treatments to get me better. I can't even imagine having to deal with people n pain all the time.

  • Flawless

    Very helpful and friendly staff, greatly appreciate them and all they do for their patients. I was extremely nervous for my procedure but as soon as i arrived they made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the whole process. From scheduling to pre-op, procedure, post-op, and everything in between the process was flawless and Dr. Reitter is fantastic, very informative and helpful. Highly recommend!

  • Great Bedside Manner

    Dr. Erik Reitter has been instrumental in keeping my TMJ under control. He is always timely and has a great bedside manner. His office handles any insurance issues on my behalf so I never have to worry. The closest office is an hour from me but I happily make the drive every 3 months for care because I’ve never had better treatment for my TMJ. I can’t recommend Dr. Reitter and his office enough!
