I’m a military wife and I have been going to Dr. Smiths office since we moved to Columbus, GA and I couldn’t be happier that I picked him as my dentist. Every appointment that I have had everyone is very friendly, kind and most importantly non judgmental. I have extreme anxiety when it comes to any dental procedure, even with cleanings and everyone is always very understanding and patient with me.
Dr. Smith has great bedside manner and he always answers all my questions, I never feel rushed by him or his staff. The hygienist are on another level of amazing. On my most recent cleaning appointment

I went for my second crown. Dr Smith and his staff were very professional and courteous and made sure my needs were met.
I felt very comfortable during the entire procedure. I had no pain or discomfort. His mannerism was very professional.

I was very pleased with the friendliness and efficiency of both, Dr Edward’s and all his staff! The hygienist were on time and did a very thorough job of cleaning and polishing my teeth. The front office staff, which sets the tone for the entire practice, we’re friendly and helpful and took my schedule into account when scheduling my future appointments! I would recommend them highly…..

Dr. Smith is the first dentist I have seen in a while and I had a very pleasant first consultation as well as treatment. The staff is very friendly and will take the time to answer all of your questions and concerns as well as treatment options. Dr. Smith is very experienced and made sure I understood everything that needs to be done prior to working on my teeth. He as well took the time to answer some of the questions I had and the appointments never feel rushed. I would highly recommend seeing him!

My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Edward Smith and his staff since we moved to Columbus, eight years ago. He and his team are very professional and friendly. We both have been with the same Dental Hygienist (Sissy) from day one. We think the world of here. Dental work can be intimidating, but both Dr. Smith and Sissy make it easy. If you are looking for a great Dental team in Columbus, Georgia, consider Dr. Edward Smith and his staff.

I'm very particular about my teeth and if you are too this is definitely the Dental family you want! "Sissy" is my hygienist and not only is she extremely personable but has consistently given me the best cleanings I've ever had! And Dr. Smith is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and accessible for any questions!!!!

Doctor Smith and his whole staff are so professional, nice and helpful. I am fighting breast cancer and have progressed Parkinson's so to say the least, there are concessions and patience needed to treat me. I always feel cared for and never embarrassed.

My husband and I both see Dr. Smith for our dentistry. We moved to Columbus not too long ago (from CA) and were nervous about starting over with a new dentist. After researching dentists in the area, we decided on Dr. Smith and are so glad we did. We are very impressed with the entire staff and have had nothing but positive experiences with our visits. Dr. Smith is very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. Each hygienist I have had has been friendly and gentle with their work. I would definitely recommend Dr. Smith's office to family and friends.

Dr. Smith is my daughter and my dentist and he is awesome! He's always so professional and kind. The hygienists are so thorough and gentle. I have had thousands of dollars of dental work on my teeth and for that reason I tend to be pickier than others on where to go. I highly recommend them! Thank you!

Went in for a routine semi annual cleaning. It is a small office but clean and quiet. I completed my paperwork and only sat for a short time before i was brought to the back. The hygienist was friendly and thorough but delivered less than stellar news to me. I had to have some work done more than a cleaning. Here is the cool part, Dr. Smith took the time to complete a very detailed examination and then sat with me to explain everything in great detail. He made sure I was fully aware of what was going on with my teeth and insured had no unanswered questions before he referred me to a specialist

I broke a tooth 2 weeks ago and my insurance company had Dr. Smith listed. His location was near to my home, so I called them and Brigitte was able to work me in immediately. Due to an infection, we had to postpone removing the tooth, but Dr. Smith and his entire staff have been amazing both times that I've been to his office now.

As a near-40 year old man, I've neglected my teeth due to anxiety and bad experiences with dentists when I was younger, but now that I've found Dr. Smith I can honestly say that I'm happy to go to him to put together a plan to get that "perfect

I am ashamed to admit that I am a 40-something year old woman with a serious case of dental anxiety. Dr. Smith is always patient with me and makes sure I have everything I need to reduce my anxiety and get the work done as quickly and painlessly as possible. He makes sure I have my options, but does not pressure me to get it done until I am ready. As for his office staff, they are top-notch. I recently called their office asking if they would mind writing an excuse for my son who had to be released early from school for his cleaning appointment the week previous. I told them I could come

I think it's easy to assume that all dentists are basically the same, but it's simply not true. Since I've moved around lots, I've had several good and bad dentists, and I can say with confidence that Dr. Smith is the best.

From the moment you walk in the door, the friendly staff and homey environment feel welcoming. And that feeling isn't just a coincidence. Dr. Smith really cares about me and my family; it shows in the smallest details. My boyfriend is seriously scared of the dentist, as in, he panics and refuses to go. Dr. Smith and his team take extra time with him

I came to Dr. Smith with a broken tooth that had already had a root canal and was in need of a crown. After an exam and X-ray he sat down with me and explained the several different outcomes possible from this slightly unusual situation. I like it when a doctor communicates fully with me. He then removed the chip and did another X-ray and advised that he would be able to salvage the tooth and put a crown on it. Dr Smith has the equipment in his office to actually create your crown in-office so there's no need to have a temporary crown put on and another office visit to get the real crown placed
