Expert Surgical Care with a Human Touch
At Lake River Oral & Facial Surgery, your care is led by two board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons, Dr. Chodroff and Dr. Lazar. With dual licensure in Washington and Oregon and certifications in general anesthesia, both doctors bring a rare combination of surgical precision, advanced training, and deep compassion to their work. Dr. Chodroff holds both an MD and DDS, with published research and national presentations in head and neck surgery, reconstructive techniques, and dental implantology. Dr. Lazar, a highly decorated academic and Clinical Assistant Professor, brings a detail-oriented, research-backed approach to complex surgical care.
Together, they’ve created a practice where technical excellence meets approachability—giving patients and referring doctors a trusted, high-touch option for oral surgery across Southwest Washington.
A Team That Feels Like Family—Because It Is
At Lake River, the culture is grounded in collaboration, respect, and consistency. Many team members have worked together for over a decade, and that continuity shows—from the warm greeting at check-in to the attentive follow-up after surgery. Patients regularly share how supported and informed they felt throughout their experience. This isn’t a place where you feel rushed or left in the dark—it’s a team that takes time to know you, earn your trust, and make you feel genuinely cared for.
From streamlined digital intake to IV sedation and personalized post-op care, every touchpoint is designed for comfort, clarity, and confidence.
