She seeks to partner with all our patients and educate you to ensure an understanding of the importance of optimum oral health and how it affects your overall physical health and wellbeing.

As a new patient at Covington Family Dentistry, they made me feel at home. Dr. Simmons took his time explaining my x-rays and answered ALL of my questions in detail. From the doctor, down to the receptionist, and everyone in between.. they were warming, welcoming, and professional.

Dr. Wilson and her team are truly awesome. They take their time and are very professional to ensure complete satisfaction. Dr. Wilson and her Hygienist are very meticulous, thorough and exhibit great attention to detail. It is over an hour drive from my home but they are well worth the trip.

Overall was a pleasant experience. Was hesitant only because I've being seeing the same dentist for the last several years. This office uses modern technology for a very thorough dental exam. I would recommend this office.
