Dr. Johnson and his team were amazing! Everyone in the office is kind and truly care about their patients. As a believer I was so grateful for the prayer that Dr. Johnson prayed over me before my surgery. It brought me so much peace. Dr. Johnson also checked on me the night of my surgery which I greatly appreciated. My recovery has been great and I would recommend anyone to this office. You won’t be disappointed. 😊

Dr. Childress and his staff were so professional and kind. They took great care of my elderly mother and followed up to make sure she was ok after surgery. I cannot say enough nice things about the experience we had with Dr. Childress. You are in good hands with him!

Recently had dental surgery, and I couldn't be more grateful for the care I received. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel calm and supported. My dentist explained every step clearly, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable the entire time.
The procedure went smoothly, and the level of professionalism and kindness truly stood out. Even after the surgery, they followed up to make sure I was healing well. It's rare to find a team that cares this much about their patients.
I highly recommend this dentist to anyone needing quality care. Thank you for making a stressful situation so much easier and giving me such a positive experience!
