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.

highly qualified and capable
this office has it all. Friendly, capable, honest and with all the right modern equipment and the staff has all the latest training. Great attention to detail. They instill a very high level of confidence. So glad I switched to Watkin Dental.

Dr Watkin needs to retire
Had a tooth blow up on a Friday evening. Tried desperately to get an emergency appointment over the weekend but no one was available. Finally got in Monday morning. Dr Watkin did not dumb the area before injecting the Novocain. Needless to say that was extremely painful. He was able to relieve the pain by drilling into the root Then I was scheduled for a root canal through my bridge. After that dr Watkin put a post in the tooth. He pushed it so far up I screamed. After all that the bridge fell off. Dr Watkin put it back on crooked ! I have been living with the crooked bridge for far too long. I am scheduled it to be removed and replaced by a different dentist. Not only has this been an incredible nuisance it’s going to be very expensive to replace

Got a crown, installed to high. I went in for three visits for other work and to get crown fixed. Every appointment got told were out of time, we will get it on the next appointment. When I was in for a cleaning The dentist came in to tell me she was leaving Watkin and would not get to it. aid in full for every visit then got a bil for $1000 for the crown. I called and explained the situation and they were going to take care of it. I just got a small claims notice for the bill that was paid in ful and the work never completed.
