Jason Sorensen, DDS

READ ALL OF THIS! SAVE YOURSELF!
Just an FYI, I stayed awake for this extraction and my previous one. Side note: he encouraged me to take all 3 out at the same time because apparently He made up some story about how I wouldn’t be able to later? In all reality he just wanted more money. Anyways, I got 3 of my wisdom teeth pulled here on February 9, 2016. Today is April 18, 2016 and my bottom tooth extraction site is still occasionally bleeding and still has a HUGE hole. AND there’s still bits of my teeth deep inside the hole that he did not carefully remove. MIND YOU I have had my first wisdom tooth extracted (bottom left) at another wonderful location and that side healed up and was back to normal in a month. I am almost at my THIRD month and the bottom right hole is NOWHERE close to healed. Note: it is NOT infected, but it is definitely recovering from all the nudging he had done. Like I said, I was awake during the whole entire procedure of my first one so I am aware of what to expect. This time around was AWFUL. He was not sympathetic towards his patients what so ever. He told me to tell him if I can feel cutting because I shouldn’t, I should only be feeling pressure. Which is true because the first time around I felt NO pain, just A LOT of pressure. SO, I told him I sill felt pain which meant he didn’t numb me enough, or waited until it had seeped in. He ignores what I said and continue to drill and cut my tooth in half. It took him roughly a minute and a half to remove 1 tooth. And let me tell ya, that was agonizing HELL. The pain was excruciating. I can’t even explain to you how it feels to feel all the heat and drilling and pulling of it. Absolutely traumatizing. NOTHIG LIKE MY FIRST AWAKE EXPERIENCE. The crazy thing is they were both impact teeth, but my first doctor was marvelous and I had an amazing experience.
The reason I didn’t go to the same doctor was because they do not take medi cal and this awful place did. I just wish dr sorenson would view his patients as people and not money coming in and out. Please if you’re going into the medical field like I am (nursing), do it for the right reason, not for the money.

Read reviews — only concern is making $$$$$$$$

I wished that I would have listened to the reviews on Unilocal and found another dentist to take my wisdom teeth out. I was referred by a family friend who also is my regular dentist, not an oral surgeon so she couldn’t pull them out herself. I wouldn’t wish this place on Lucifer himself. I had my wisdom teeth removed a few days ago and he prescribed Tylenol with codine which was fine though rather primitive and ineffective I made due because I didn’t want to cause any problems. I had to take two at a time every four hours to manage my pain. Went back for continue pain on the right side of my mouth, left side was completely fine and manageable but I was having trouble «swishing,» brushing, eating, rinsing, etc… Anything that had to do with my teeth caused absolute agony. The son, the younger of the two men that run the place, I believe his name is Jason though to be honest I’m not even sure.
I have chronic kidney stones, chronic knee pain, and some other ailments that have caused me to have a fairly high tolerance to pain medication. I’ve had four kidney stones and there’s nothing like having a constant, stabbing pain you cannot eliminate that prevents you from sleeping. I also has Asperger’s syndrome and yes, all of this is listed in my chart and one of the common issues is over stimulation which leads to heightened irritability which as you can imagine makes pain a lot worse.
He repeatedly told me not to get mad to which I responded with every single time, «I’m not mad. I’m irritated because I’m in pain and I have Asperger’s syndrome. You’re not doing anything to alleviate my pain so of course I’m irritated at you.» He explained to me five different ways from Sunday that my pain was irrelevant and that if I just washed out the holes in my mouth I’d be fine. I had been religiously washing my mouth and taking my medication. I even made charts to help me keep track of it and even had a timer to help me remember to take them because I have Asperger’s. I tried to explain to him that to even attempt to swish or whatever the hell he wanted me to do I needed to be comfortable otherwise I wasn’t going to do it.
I was essentially told that my pain is irrelevant and I needed to nut the hell up and deal with the pain of having my impacted wisdom teeth removed and I was essentially lectured about how I was irresponsibly handling my at home teeth care when I wasn’t. He flushed my gums out with what he himself said was water which made me cry from absolute agony. I told him that I didn’t appreciate the way he was making me feel and pleaded on last time because I was in so much pain and didn’t want to have to find another dentist but I did find another dentist and the dentist and I both laughed at what an idiot he was while she provided me with adequate and human care.
It sounds like this dentist office is fine if you’re «normal» or «neurotypical» but from the reviews left on this Unilocal if you’re «different» or a patient with special needs you’re going to get the butt end of the fucking stick here.

My experience was very good with dr. Sorenson! Not sure about the other reviews but whenever I went in to get my wisdom teeth pulled. All four of them. He was very comforting. I had a rough healing process the first week but he made sure that I wasn’t in pain and did a great job of getting me in and cleaned as I needed it. And now I’m all healed up and mouth is great!

be really careful with this father and son team i am going to tell you what jason did to me and father sued me and the crazyiness going on at this place ok let me start by saying jason did not 1 not 2 not 3 but 4 extractions in 1 siting and he use so many shots to num me over 20 cartridges i saw with blood all over tray it was the most horrible extperience in my life i would not do this to my worst enemy i felt so much pain i stopped payment on check his father sued me for 3 times of the amount told judge i wanted to feel the pain numbness shots would not work on infected tooth but they told me and supposley i say its ok i want to feel the pain thats crazy i had insurance to put me to sleep he told me i did not father sues so many people check with small claims court records they got judgment on me and son was not even at court so i could cross exam he sued me and also father tried to hit me with his vehicle at down town court i have police report father sued me 9 years ago and is taking me back to court again this man is very crazy he told judge to put me in jail for not paying him judge said you know better we can not do this in this country he is bringing me back to court on oct for order of my assets if you dont belive me please check police case number case 07 – 81 651 and see how many people he has sued at the court they have the records i dont recommend you not use this office any time soon and if you do god help you

I wouldn’t wish this place on my worst enemy.
I got my wisdom teeth removed here after being referred by my primary dentist.
While preparing for the surgery, I was a little concerned that there was dust everywhere. That’s not a huge deal, but a little concerning in that environment.
I had 3 wisdom teeth removed by Jason Sorensen, and although I was out of it, my mom was shocked that I was finished 15 minutes.
I had what I suspected was usual amount of pain (I felt like I had been punched several times in the lower jaw) but after 2 weeks I was still miserable and unable to eat. I went back and Jason Sorensen was dismissive of my pain and rude. He used something like a water pick (not sure exactly) to clean the areas with warm water (or possibly saline — not sure — I guess he was having a rough day and couldn’t be bothered to speak to me about anything).
He insinuated that I just wanted more pain medication, it was ridiculous! I was emotionally exhausted from being in constant pain and it was terrible to be treated that way.
A week or so later I went to my general dentist and they found that on one side, the tooth wasn’t pulled but just grinded down to a smooth bowl. They removed the smooth part and the roots beneath it.
They removed some fragments from the other side.
The experience was terrible.

Let me just say, I’m a baby when it comes to anything to do with my teeth. I went to see Dr. Sorenson to get my wisdom teeth removed and I was terrified. Dr. Sorenson is amazing at what he does because the entire process of getting my wisdom teeth removed was painless! The healing process obviously sucked but not as bad as I expected.
Thank you Dr. Sorenson!!!

just got off the phone with a an inpatient receptionist and i hate her because she didn’t want to wait for me to get my card whenever im ready??? FIRE THE THAT SALTY BITCH PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE HER AN ATTITUDE MAKEOVER!!!
Second time calling her she couldn’t understand my mom’s english. omg then i had to talk to her she was talking too slow just so we could understand her. FUCK THIS BITCH
don’t come come here if you got medi-​caid

I’ll start by stating that I’m the biggest baby when it comes to medical procedures, especially those involving my mouth and dental work. My first and only experience at Dr. Sorensen’s office was yesterday (I was referred by my dentist to his office for wisdom tooth extraction), and I had an overall very pleasant experience.
The office gals weren’t very forthcoming in information about the procedure when I scheduled my appointment, and kind of give you the «number not a patient» feeling. I was also annoyed that immediately after my surgery I’m out of it, in pain, numbed and still in shock and she’s asking me if and when I’d like to come back for my other two, should she call my insurance, what kind of payment will I use, asleep vs. not (really lady?! Can I just go home, and you call me later?!).
Otherwise, I was very impressed with Jason and his procedural assistants. He was very kind and patient, he answered my thousand nervous questions and I felt like he was very honest in my options (I was considering getting two at a time versus all four). And, I as always do during any sort of medical procedure and dental work, I had a bit of a panic attack throughout the whole procedure. He would constantly stop and ask me if I needed a minute, if I needed more medication, if he was going to fast and he kept me in the know of what was happening, consideration for me I GREATLY appreciated. He sat with me a couple of minutes after too, to ensure I was okay and to see if I had any further questions. His instructions were very helpful and thorough as well.
The office is very nice, on a great side of town, which was very simple to find. The temperature was comfortable, the x-​ray was actually a comfortable process (the high tech machine that goes around your head), and the staff was overall very friendly. I loved the relaxing Planet Earth DVD playing in the waiting room too!
If I do decide to get my other two done, I’ll definitely be coming back to this office.
P. S. There was a transgender male being served at the office while I was there, and treated with nothing but courtesy so far that I saw. Found that a little ironic after reading the review below.

Two of three of my children have had extractions here. The 20 year old had four wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Jerry Sorensen, any questions he had, they had the answers. My 12 year old had her dentist pull a tooth before, it was not a good experience for either of us, so when she got there she was extremely nervous, everyone did everything they could to make her feel better, after Dr. Jason Sorensen pulled it she said «that’s it?» She didn’t feel a thing! I really appreciated that they let me be in the room while it was occurring, two of her previous dentists do not allow parents in the room, I wonder why? Thanks for making our experiences good ones!

I had read the earlier post and almost cancelled my surgery, Dr Jason Sorenson is awesome, I have a complicated history, he listened, not based of f of the usual circumstances but off my history, no pain with shots or procedure, staff was pleasant, Wonderful experience, I wouldnt hesitate to send any family or friends to him.

This place is extremely gay unfriendly. We I arrived to my appointment, I was shocked to see Prop 8 signs everywhere. Outside, inside, in every exam room, everywhere in this office that you could put a sign, they had one, including the reception area.
I had to have a tooth pulled, was referred to this place. Mind you, my regular dentist warned me that these people were not friendly and could be extremely rude. How sad is that?
This office is a father son office. The father is extremely rude, rough and just unpleasant. The son was nicer, but not enough that I would ever return here.
When the old man doc came into the room to pull my tooth, he said nothing and just yanked the tooth out. Very rude, didn’t explain what he was going to do. Just yanked the tooth and then left the room. He was rough as well.
Unfortunately, I had to go to this place twice. The last time the pulled a tooth, for a year and half afterwards, fragments of the pulled tooth were coming out of the hole left behind. On 2 occasions my honey had to actually help free large fragments of tooth/​bone as they broke thru the skin. If I would have known, they were going to do such a shitty job and be so rude, I would have pulled the damn tooth myself with pliers. It probably would have hurt a lot less and I wouldn’t have been scared of being lynched for being gay.
