Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Sub standard treatment
Sub standard dentist. My wife has been going to Yates for five years. Needed dental work and was told it would be six months. So much for an established. He did poor work and is probably the reason he did not want to see her. Did not want to fix what he screwed up. Pathetic dentist. Any one that sees him is an idiit.

Highly Recommend
Dr Yates and his staff are very efficient and professional. I have a problematic tooth and they worked to diagnose the issue. I was told results of their findings and given options to help me. Throughout the visit I knew that my comfort and health were important to them. I am thankful to have a dentist that cares and has the knowledge to repair my teeth.

Dental Consultation
I have to admit that a trip to the dentist is not my favorite thing; however, on July 18th I met with Dr. Yates for a consultation for several dental issues. I cannot express how pleased I was with the services I received. Dr. Yates and his staff were professional, efficient and friendly. Most importantly, Dr. Yates listened to and addressed my concerns. He also fixed, in a matter of minutes, my front tooth that I had chipped, and it looks great! Thankfully, I have found my dentist.

I have a lot of dental issues and a lot of dental anxiety. Dr. Yates, Charles and the whole team are wonderful. They take their time, make you feel at home and answer your questions thoroughly.
