Dr. Fabrizio Cena was born in a small Italian town named Chivasso, an area rich with history. As Dr. Cena details, My ancestors were lumberjacks who in 1456, came down from the Alps in the Po Valley, in northern Italy, to help deforest and conquer land to farm. They became a generation of farmers, and it is thanks to their centuries-old work, that the region, which was once barren, transformed into an authentic garden.

Fantastic experience from the very start: this is NOT your parent’s dental office. Simple scheduling and check-in with SPOT-ON Covid-19 precautions throughout. Friendly, knowledgeable staff were a pleasure to speak with and very helpful. From the ever-patient reception nurses to the hygienist and dentist, every question was answered and every procedure plainly explained.
This experience truly changed the way I feel about going to the dentist…absolutely true.
Would DEFINITELY recommend…and I’m already scheduled for my next appointment!
Love these folks!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would, the staff and Dr. Brian at the Fishersville location are great.
I would highly recommend Willis Family Dentistry to anyone who is search for a new dentist and practice. I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Brian, he answered and explained what the options were , and what he was going to do in the process as he was doing the procedure.
You will not go wrong in choosing this practice, this staff and Dr. Brian.

The front desk staff was kind and responsive, able to schedule future appointments to fit my needs.
Dr. Podbesek was professional and attentive. He completed the exam without causing any discomfort.
