Report
After suffering all weekend in pain from a broken tooth, Dr. Henry chastised me for not calling him at home to get some relief. He then took me right in without an appointment and proceeded to render me pain free for the first time in 36 hours. He was my savior. His whole office are just the nicest and most polite people. Thank you Dr. Henry and staff for just caring. You have no idea how much it meant. Todd Kosloski Hapeville

Report
I'm a dentist and recently had a patient move from Georgia to my area. Not all dental work is the same. This patient had some of the most well done treatment that I have ever seen. If I lived down there, Dr. Henry would be my personal dentist. We had to communicate with his office for some information, and everyone there was top notch.

Report
At first it seemed like a good place while I was paying cash but as soon as I told them I had insurance they dropped me as a patient. I was also told by the dentist assistant that she called my insurance and they told her my insurance was expired so I wanted to see for myself was it accurate. And the insurance told me that everything Is still active and that I am covered.after I proved to her I do have insurance I haven't heard anything from her.

Stand up dentist. I like how he's honest and treats you like family. I've been coming here for years and I couldn't be happier. Keep up the great work, doc!

Dr. Henry is excellent and so helpful and experienced and caring. My teeth are a challenge and I've spent money that didn't fix the problems. I feel I've finally found a dentist I can trust.

Report
This place is racist. This so called dentist came into the room and told me to turn my phone off before even greeting me. And proceeded to tell me that his time is $200 an hour after walking into my appointment 20 minutes late. I expected to be treated like a human being but instead was asked to find another dentist because paying cash out of my own pocket only gets me upcharged. I won't recommend this place to any person of color. Find someone else like they told me.
