Absolutely love the office, Dr B. Watson himself, his Son is a genius Dr Watson as well, and his entire staff will exceed all of your expectations everytime. Dr B. Watson is my primary Dentist and I needed some emergency fillings done that was completed by his son and I've never been to a dentist where they give you shots/injections that felt super comfortable and painless! Hands down the best Dentist I've ever had the pleasure of knowing, they throughly explain the plan of action, and that's why they've been my same Dentist for these past 5 years and will continue to be. Thank you so much to everybody for making it a pleasant and easy experience from entering the doors to walking out.

Dr. Watson is always very pleasant. He also knows that I struggle through the shots. So today he took extra time to dead in the area, give a small bit of the shot and then wait and give the rest of it. Little things like that. I appreciate a lot!

My recent visit with the hygienist Mikeyla was wonderful. Her chair side mannerism is professional, thorough and educational. I had also been treated by Dr Patrick immediately after whom I found to be sharp, intelligent and easy to communicate with. Great experience. O'Neil Combs

My dentist for years retired. A friend recommended this practice but I was so nervous about this change. My first appt was with the son. I knew I needed a crown. I can't begin to tell you how kind, caring and gentle he and his assistant were! I am so grateful for them!! So glad I made this change!!

As a patient with experience with both other civilian practices as well as military dental services I state confidentiality that Dr. Watson, his clinical support staff as well as his administrative team are all top notch. No effort is spared at any level to ensure your dental health issues are addressed thoroughly, efficiently, and compassionately. Questions are always addresses completely and respectfully. Can't imagine a better practice.

Dr Watson and staff are the best. Always professional and efficient. They deal well with my dentist phobic husband and special needs daughter and are always kind. Our family has been coming to Dr Watson for many years. Special shout outs to the wonderful hygienists, Susanne, Sue, and Michela. The young Dr Watson (Dr Patrick) is personable and seems very competent as well. Office staff, Lynn and Sherri,are always helpful and friendly. Since going to the dentist is a necessity in life, this is the place to go!

What an amazing place! Cannot recommend it enough. The dentist I saw was incredibly polite, took his time and explained every step of the process. And encouraged that I listen to music to help me through the procedure. He got me straight to the first available root canal specialist, and the receptionist and hygienist were both super friendly. This is a practice I actually wouldn't mind coming back to.

We've been coming to Dr. Watson for almost 30 years and we wouldn't dream of going anywhere else for our care. We moved to a mall town in the western part of VA and we have no problems driving the 2.5 hours just to be taken care fo by Dr. Watson and his wonderful staff. I love my hygienist!!!
