Had my semi-annual dentist appointment today. It was great! The front office staff, dental hygienist, and the dentist are all pleasant, professional & punctual. I had zero wait times when I came in. I had a x-ray, cleaning, fluoride and checkup all within 30 mins.

Overall great dental experience!
I’ve been going here since I was a child and have received phenomenal care throughout the years. From the front desk, hygienists, and dentist, everything has been fantastic!
The only thing I would add as far as pandemic is that all staff wear their mask.

The staff are very thorough and their work and take the time to explain do you what they’re doing or tips to help prevent future issues, without trying to upsell you into work that you don’t necessarily need done. Dr. Dickerson as well as the rest of his staff are very friendly and personable. They have taken the time to get to know me and my family what they’re interested in and remember and ask about those things in our future visits. They are also very efficient in their time rarely have we ever waited more than a couple minutes to be taken back or to be seen by the dentist. We would highly

Dr Dickerson is a dentist who takes time to listen. Our kids love him and his staff. One of our kids has 10 missing permanent teeth and we had no idea how to address the issue and get a plan together for him. Doctor Dickerson listened to my plea for help, thought about it, and called us back with a recommendation he was comfortable with. He introduced us to an amazing orthodontist team (Garn and Mason) who is working wonders for us and who has had a lot of experience in this area. I can’t say enough how grateful we are for him and for not being like every other dentist in a long line of dentists

Deanna, my hygienist was bomb! Loved her. She made sure I was comfortable the whole time and did a fabulous job. My teeth feel fantastic! And Dr Dickerson was great upfront and honest. I have a chipped tooth and one cavity and he gave me a few options to chose from depending on my budget to get those teeth fixed. There was no pressure. Highly recommend this dental office!

Dr. Dickerson's staff is about as professional and courteous as it gets. I haven't been to the dentist in years (no, I'm not proud of that :)), but the staff here didn't make me feel bad or naughty about it. Rather, they took it for what it was, and went to work on getting my teeth clean and shiny again!

Dr. Dickerson offers a warm, welcoming environment, and I look forward to going back for my next visit.

For over ten years I have been blessed to be a patient at this office. When I say the staff is delightful, I mean the whole staff! It is like family when I come in and we connect like it is a continuing conversation. They show people matter while providing excellent dental care. I have had six dental implants and Dr Dickerson as been there every step of the way to ensure I not only healed quickly, but ensured I could flash my pearly whites anywhere! When family and friends look for a dentist, I never hesitate to suggest this office.

My 11yr old daughter and I went to Dr Dickerson's office this week and was thoroughly impressed with the kindness and professionalism we encountered. My daughter was worried when they found a small piece of baby tooth that needed to be extracted. Normally, a procedure like this would have been rescheduled for another day but, Dr Dickerson was able to work out his schedule to be able to do it right then. My daughter only stressed for a short time before he extracted the tooth, then we were on our way. She even won a movie ticket from the gumball machine on our way out! She couldn't

I've been going to Dr. Dickerson's office for many years and I've always been impressed with their professionalism and quality of service. His staff provide excellent, straightforward dental care with up to date technology and equipment without the upsell or unnecessary procedures. On each visit, they've had my insurance sorted out for me and kept appointments on time. Reliable, honest and friendly. I recommend them without hesitation.

If you are for any reason not completely thrilled with your Dentist then for the love of God make an appointment here! You will be greeted by a beautiful receptionist who has a great smile and perfect teeth (coincidence? I think not!) A pain free cleaning (thanks Jenny) and then a thorough dental exam by Dr. Dickerson. You will received the best of care and with such friendliness and concern for all your dental needs. This is a well run office that truly values their clients. Thank you!

Dr. Dickerson and his staff are fantastic. I've been a patient since 2007. I've received the same high quality service since day 1. He and his team have helped with a couple of fillings, a root canal that had to be REDONE from a prior experience with a different dentist, to regular cleanings. All have been great experiences. I actually look forward to my two visits a year! Great job Dr. Dickerson.

I would use the word quality to describe Dr. Dickerson's practice. I know the owner well, and I can tell he cares about each person who comes in. He will do anything for his patients.

We have been going to Dr. Dickerson for over 15 years. I can't say enough great things about him and his office staff. Dr. Dickerson provides the best care, and is simply amazing. He provides care for not only my husband and myself, but he also provides care for both of my children. My son had his first cavity at the age of 5, and filling it was no big deal! Dr. Dickerson was so gentle and patient my son had no idea he even had a shot to numb his mouth!

I have referred many of my friends and family to Dr. Dickerson, and all of them have been extremely impressed with the level of care!

I had my first appointment with Dr. Dickerson. I had been going to the same dentist for years, and since I moved to a different part of town, I needed to find a new provider. I could not be more pleased with my decision to see Dr. Dickerson.

The experience was great since my first call to his office to schedule the appointment. The receptionist was so friendly. I was so surprised when I arrived for the appointment and the office was decorated so nicely for St. Patrick's Day. You can tell they enjoy doing little extra things for their patients. They even had a little sign hanging on the
