Awesome place! He is full up with patients! I don’t want to share him with anyone so I am sharing my experience because I am a kind person and am letting you know you can get in but you will wait because he is well loved!

Always a pleasant experience with a family friendly feeling in a clean professional atmosphere. Dr John, his wife and staff, provide the kind of pain free personal service that makes you actually look forward to your follow up visits.

Dockside Dental is the Dentist you need to go to if you are afraid there may be pain. My husband was terrified of going to the Dentist. He happened upon Dr. JOHN and hasn't missed an appointment yet, and willingly makes his future appointments. He has also followed him even when he changed offices. Staff is also amazing.

Best dentist I've had in my 40+ years. Friendly, efficient, honest, and concerned for your well being. DR. Phillips is willing to take time to explain things to you and you don't feel like your a part of an assembly line.

Dr. John is the BEST dentist in the county😊Maybe in the State. He's more than just a dentist, he's a family friend. He is very caring & takes a personal interest in his patients. I've been going to him for at least 20 years & others in my family go to him as well. I even followed him to Ches. City. His wife Lynette & all the staff are absolutely awesome. My hygienist is also terrific. Everyone is always friendly & very kind. Never had a complaint. We won't allow him to retire😊
