This was the absolute best dental experience I've ever had. I had a huge fear of dentists. I was put at ease from the time I walked in the door. Dr. Cottingham and his staff are excellent care providers!!!

I broke a tooth yesterday and fully expected to suffer through the weekend with it, but you had an appointment today, which I greatly appreciated. I love the staff and Dr. Cottingham is just the best! The facility is very clean and i am completely comfortable coming in during a pandemic.

What a thorough and comprehensive exam! The hygienist was kind and explained each step. They had a special tool to detect mouth cancer..which was something I had not had done before. And of course, who does not love Dr. Doug?? Excellent experience!

Can you be friendly & professional? Absolutely! My husband is the only individual I know that enjoys his visits to the dentist. Margi Lauffer is his go to hygienist! He makes sure she's available to care of him. We appreciate the entire staff, warm smiles and a comfortable environment. Dr. Douglas F. Cottingham is gentle, informative and a calm presence, which is appreciated, because no one likes dental visits! Well except my hubby...

We had such a great experience for my two year old. It was his first check up ever. But he had observed on the side while his older brother was on. Ms.Yum is great with super young kid. My little one sat there… happily for 20 mins without fear and tear. He said it was fun after the cleaning. Strongly recommend for the little ones.

This was an appointment for my 7 year old son for a cleaning and addressing a small cavity. He loves Dr. Cottingham and the hygienists as they are always so good and patient with him. He has no problem going to the dentist and actually looks forward to it. We will go no where else in Columbia!

First visit today as a new patient at Cottingham Family Dentistry and couldn't be happier. Professional, friendly and comfortable. The process, staff and Dr Doug were great. Besides what's gotta be one of the most convenient locations, just a great team there that made the visit worth complimenting. Thanks Cottingham Family Dentistry!

Just wanted to offer some positive feedback from my visit on 5/5/15. All of the staff is very professional and friendly which makes you feel very welcome. Kim is awesome and makes the visit a very personal one,… which immediately makes you feel comfortable, this is important because so many medical offices lack that personal touch. Great job to all of the staff!

We had a great experience with Dr. Cottingham and his entire staff. It was a family affair that day...my husband, our 4 year old daughter and myself all went in for cleanings. They even walked my 2 month old baby around when she got fussy. They made a trip to dentist easy and painless.
