Dr. Watson has been my dentist since 2012 and my overall oral health has improved dramatically! He restored very old fillings without compromising the tooth structure. He is gentle, caring and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Dr. Watson!

I was a patient of Dr. Watson's father and thoroughly appreciated the dental care that I received from his father. I am pleased that now his father is retired, I can go to the younger Dr. Watson and receive the same quality care that his father provided. Both Dr. Watson's are great dentist

I am very thankful that I found Dr. Watson. His prices are reasonable but more importantly his work is amazing! I felt comfortable during the entire appointment. He even offered me a blanket and neck roll, very nice. He has a good attitude and excellent skills. Thumbs up doc.

Dr Watson has a nice, clean office and a great staff, but when it came to getting my filling...ouch!! It has been months since I got my filling and it’s still sensitive! Not to mention, it was painful while he was drilling! He also seemed very nervous during the appointment. I will not be returning.

DR. WATSON IS CLEAR ABOUT HIS PLAN FOR TREATMENT. HE LISTENS TO CONCERNS AND IS GENTLE WHILE HE WORKS. I WAS TERRIFIED OF GETTING ANY DENTAL DONE, BUT NOW I HAVE HAD 2 RESTORATIONS AND 4 FILLINGS DONE WITH NO FEAR.
