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.

Disappointed
Went there years and trusted completely. Recently had a family member need a crown, another needed a filling. Had to go to a different provider due to insurance changes. New provider x-rayed both and neither needed crown nor filling. Could be a difference of opinion, but after several requests couldn't get dental records sent to new provider. Really like the staff and I hope it's not true, but it seems like there could possibly be some discrepancies with adding some unneeded services.

Best service and dental care in Columbus
Had to have a tooth pulled. Dr. Swords' skill and experience made the whole procedure painless. I have been going to Dr. Swords for many years and he does painless work, regardless of the procedure performed.

I hate going to the dentist, I hear I’m not the only one! I’ve had so much dental work over my life that I’m always a nervous wreck. Dr Swords keeps me completely sane. His entire staff is the best I’ve ever been to. They make you feel like you are special even though I’m an LSU fan! You will love the service they provide.
