My husband recently had his 4 yr. FU visit with Dr. Carlson. Dr. Carlson was just as thorough, professional, caring, and dedicated as he was in the initial appt. One can tell he is passionate about his position, which is to give each patient the best medical attention and care he has to offer!

Excellent physician. Very knowledgeable, professional, and caring. Does not rush you through appointments and listens to your questions. Can't say enough about the treatment and care I have received from him. His staff is very courteous. His medical team returns calls promptly.

Dr Carlson is one of the best surgeons in this country. Surgery is always traumatic so you should never worry about the competence of your doctor. Tennessee is lucky to have a guy who is at the top of his field.

My husband had a heartache and Dr. Carlson was the physician in the hospital. He was very caring, attentive, taking his time answering questions, encouraging, and detailed. We are thankful to have him!

Dr. Carlson is a kind caring doctor who has an interest in you as a patient. He will try to work with you to make sure your needs are met. Very professional yet still has the human quality of caring. I recommend Dr. Carlson to anyone who needs a professional oral surgeon. When I thought my brothers problem was not fixable, Dr. Carlson stepped right in and assured us everything was going to work out fine. So far it has and I am grateful to have him in this field. Thank you Dr. Carlson for your compassion, kindness and service.
