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.

Professional, Friendly, Caring
I hold Dr. Carlson and his staff in very high regard. He has seen me on an emergency basis multiple times in recent years. I am not an expert on the practice of dentistry, but he answers my questions in a way that I can understand. In my experience, he and his staff have provided expert, professional and friendly care.

My routine check up
As usual the entire staff were so friendly and personable. They treat their patients like family. Dalana greets everyone with a big sincere smile. My hygienist was not only friendly, but did a great job painlessly clearing my teeth. Dr Carlson is always ready to listen and when I asked if he could make an appliance I could use when sleeping to keep me from biting my cheek, he said yes. Great visit.

Dr. Carlson and his staff are fantastic. My whole family has received nothing but the best treatment from him. He will never suggest you do anything that is unnecessary. He treats all of his patients like family. After you see him, you will never go anywhere else. Truly phenomenal dentist.

Love Tuscaloosa General Dentistry!
Everyone was so nice from the moment I walked in. Dr. Carlson was so thorough and explained my Xrays and the procedures we would take to get my teeth back in shape. Looking forward to my next visits.
