I was referred to Dr. Dotson 18 years ago by someone at my work. He is the best dentist I have ever had. He truly cares about his patients and takes the time to get to know them.

Alison, who cleaned my teeth was so thorough with her cleaning. She was very detailed oriented and did a fantastic job. Dr. DOTSON always takes the time to chat, and you can tell he really cares about you as a person. This office is a wonderful place, and I would recommend it without hesitation. My husband uses Dr. Dotson's office as well, and he also thinks very highly of Dr. Dotson and his staff. My husband has had a lot of severe dental problems. Dr. Dotson has helped him through a very challenging situation with his teeth. They do the best job of being very gentle when needed, and making sure you are comfortable and as pain-free as possible.

Have trusted Dr. Dotson's expertise for years now and have to say he and his staff are second to none. Excellent care and customer service in addition to the affordability that their new patient plans offer. No need to endlessly scroll through reviews, he's simply got the best practice.

Dr Dotson and Dr Nester (retired) Have been my familys dentists starting with me in 1957 with Dr Nester for 51 years and the rest of my family with Dr Dotson. Now that Dr Nester has retired I had my first visit with Dr Dotson today 12/26/18 and experianced why my entire family loves Dr Dotson so much...He is a great Dentist and you will love him as much as me and my family loves him !!! And oh my goodness, the entire staff as well as the hygienist is so great and she is pain free I had to visit Dr Dotson in August and September 2021 for work on a partial anchor tooth that had to be extracted due to compression fraction. He had to add a tooth to the partial and anchor the partial next to the one that had been removed and after it was all done, I came out with a perfect fit on my partial.... Thanks Dr. Dotson and all of his excellent staff members.. 11/22/2021 Today was just a thorough dental cleaning with the new Dental Hygienist and staff member. This lady did an excellent and pain free job on cleaning my teeth!!! Dr Dotson came and gave my teeth a thorough examination and a clean bill of health for another 6 months...

Doctor Dotson has been my family's dentist for over twenty years. He is kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable - a true gentleman. His staff is always courteous. I can recommend Dr. Dotson without hesitation. Do yourself and your family a favor and visit my favorite Dentist in the whole wide world. I know, I know Doctor - I still drink too much orange juice.
