Cindi is the best hygienist I've ever had! I always feel comfortable and well taken care of. She has even covered me with a blanket when it was too cold. Any dentist I've seen has listened to my concerns and I always feel like I'm in good hands.

I can't say enough good things about this place. I've been going here for a few years now. My recent visit was on Monday, 31st for a root canal with Dr. Marshal. Dr. Marshal is very patient and polite. I had to get numbing medicine 3 times before we started. They never made me feel like I was "numb enough, let's get started." I was in full control of if I felt I was numb enough or not. (I hadn't always had that experience at other dentist offices.) They show you the x-rays and work that needs to be done, never push anything that isn't necessary,.. idk they are just the best. Highly recommend.

Let me first say that I am so paranoid about going to the dentist. Rachel and her staff are amazing. They have put me at ease. They are professional, but you feel like a friend when you leave there. Rachel is so aware of your needs and you know what procedures are going to take place and the cost become you begin . The office is beautiful and the coffee is great! I can't imagine going anywhere else for my dental needs. Keep up the good work Gateway Dentist!!!

The is the BEST dentist PERIOD!! We have been with them since around the time they opened and they still impress me. Our insurance is not the easiest and we recently had a claim that was a real challenge to figure but they went above and beyond to get it worked out. I cant say enough about everyone who works there, they ALL are incredible, professional and very personable. They deserve much more than 5 stars.

Totally disappointed with the new dentist in Murfreesboro, he had a problem with a tooth that he refused to repair and to charge more money he wanted to extract the tooth. The day I went to the appointment for the second time they took an X-ray just to charge more. Then I went to another dentist who charged me much cheaper and repaired my tooth.
