'To provide comprehensive dental care of exceptional quality to patients in a calm, comfortable environment. I am committed to caring for my patients with the same empathy, good humor, and attention to detail that I would want for a member of my own family. I look forward to building rich and rewarding relationships with my patients so I can be an effective, lifelong steward of their oral health. By fostering mutual trust, stressing careful preventative care and providing hygienic education, I believe I can create the conditions most conducive to my patients ' long-term success at maintaining a dazzling, healthy smile.

She also participated in the Give Kids a Smile program that provides free dental care to kids in need.
'I spent the summer before dental school on a dental mission trip to Panama. This mission not only reinforced my career choice, but it also opened my eyes to learn first-hand how many people in other parts of the world do not have the same opportunities for maintaining oral health. I look forward to incorporating volunteerism into my dental practice both here in the United States and overseas. I have seen firsthand how dental professionals can positively impact a communitywhen they combine their efforts to improve the quality of life for people who would otherwise have no recourse to proper dental care and I want this office to join in that truly noble pursuit.'
Dr. Kerrigan grew up in Virginia and moved to Florida to attend college at the University of West Florida.

From the moment I walked in which by the way I was very concerned due to previous experiences elsewhere, to the moment I walked out, it was a very pleasant experience. Everyone was amazing and made me feel at ease. I'm looking forward to the same outcome after I'm done with my procedures and also looking forward to more positive visits in the future.

I went in for a basic cleaning and have full dental insurance. I was charged $150 out of pocket in addition to what my insurance will pay and was not told why. My insurance covers cleaning. Why do I feel like I'm being hustled. Update: I received a call from the dental office and after they researched my account they realized that I was mistakenly billed for a previous patient with my same last name. I have bee issues a refund for the fee I was charged. I appreciate that they took the time to look into this and took corrective action.

Taylor was the BEST hygienist I've ever had! I was kept comfortable the entire cleaning which has never happened before. Dr.Lee was kind and caring and was asking me questions that made me feel like he cares! The front staff was kind and friendly to me when I arrived. 5 stars all around! FTT!

Everyone was very polite, happy and thorough. Don't think I was ever at a dentist initial appointment for that long. With dental going digital makes the process long but interesting. I would definitely recommend Fort Hamer Dental to anyone. Thanks for being great!!

Very friendly and efficient. They went over a dental plan with me that made sense for my needs. It was nice that Jen took the time to properly train Lilliana (the assistant in her internship). Jen was very pleasant and through. Monique was very nice and took care to not hurt me while she was checking my teeth. Dr. Kerrigan was great! I'm not a big dentist fan but I'll go back to see her again.
