I usually don't leave reviews but I had to for Dr. Clemmons and his staff. My son and I are both new patients and were honestly so anxious about going in. I heard about him through social media and I truly cannot express how great they are. Dr. Clemmons is very knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. His staff was just as friendly and the dental hygienist talked to us through everything. It felt like we'd known them for years. His receptionist helped us get scheduled with with what worked with our calendars and was kind enough to help me with the coverage of a new dental insurance. I will be recommending all my friends and family to go to him!

I was terrified of going to the dentist when a friend recommended Dr. Clemmons. I had so much anxiety and it was obvious. Dr. Clemmons came out to the waiting room and assured me that he would do everything he could not to hurt me. I have been back several times and let me tell you he is the best dentist ever. Dr Clemmons and his staff are very kind and care about making your experience a great one. I recommend him to everyone.
