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.

Procedures are rushed and painful.
Most of Dr. Wells good reviews are several yrs old. Now he is rushed. Twice he has failed to even wait for novocaine to work before proceding & at one visit, an implant redo, he inflicted the most pain I have ever experienced with dental work. At the beginning of most recent apt, I asked if there were any post op instructions. He said he would tell me when he finished. He forgot, so I just googled it. Nice guy, but too busy to be caring.

need more dentists
try to make an appointment in carter county for dental and youll either get put 6 months out or denied your brand of insurance, other just dont take patients. martin runs the show for referralls and wells pretty much has the run of surgery. he is a wonderful doctor though and i think he would be my choice regardless of the sherman act and possible carteling of other dental practices. one of the dental offices in carter county is in a church. thank you all so much for your service. you will find regular extraction about $700 which is almost state max and all carter county comes here for surgery. take note of the differences in payment from martin price to here for you do not have a choice. none of the xrays follow the patient to and from and $85 fees are excessive and patient is responsible. whatch for the lady to write in pen you have to 'pay this now' later it will be said the patient made this entry. this entry will be removed in a few days and i will repost. fairness demands

Dr. Wells and his staff are professional and caring. He explained everything about the procedure and the recovery process and made me feel comfortable. His staff were very helpful and caring. I can’t say enough about this place and I’m so glad I had the pleasure to receive care from Dr. Wells and his wonderful staff. He is by far the best oral surgeon around. Dr. Wells gave me a reason to smile!

Dr. Nathaniel Wells and his staff could not have been more supportive and professional. They made a stressful situation much easier. Its never easy undergoing a dental procedure but Dr. Wells and his staff eased my concerns with their professionalism.

I highly recommend Dr. Wells and his staff to anyone needing dental surgery. I went in for an implant but Dr. Wells found a tumor in my lower left jawbone. He put me at ease and at a later date I not only had the implant, but also a wisdom tooth out and a benign tumor taken out that was the length of my lower jaw, then put on a soft diet for two months. Dr. Wells was very professional, answering all my questions in terms without rushing me and was genuinely concerned about me.

We had a very traumatic experience where our daughter's head was split open and needed a decent amount of stitches. It meant a lot when Dr. Wells and the Staff greeted us with warmth and confidence that everything was going to be ok. We had limited waiting time and they quickly moved us through the entire process in a calm and professional manner. Our daughter's head was stitched up quickly and even she was surprised at how quick and painless the process was. Thank you Dr. Wells and staff!

Dr. Wells took our son's wisdom teeth out. He made our son and us very comfortable as he explained the process of what he was going to be doing. That was in February of 2017 and now, in November of 2017, we are back with our daughter. We would highly recommend Dr. Wells and his staff to anyone that's having their children's wisdom teeth removed.
