John G Wood, DDS

Dr. Woods has been my dentist for 25 plus years. I drive 25 miles to his office because of the wonderful care I have received over the years. His staff is always pleasant and professional.
If you want top of the line care this is the place to go!

Unfortunately, my 5 star positive experience only applied to my first visit. The following two visits were a bit of a nightmare really. I’m a big believer in supporting businesses that genuinely care for their customers (patients) and I found out the hard way, this was not the case here. The front desk staff is nice and the office is clean and high tech which gives this updated review 2 stars. When I had no issues, this place was great. However, when they managed to rip out my permanent, cemented in retainer during a routine cleaning, things were handled far from five star. I gave them another chance after that poorly handled incident and was treated so poorly after they took me back 30 MIN after my appt time. I ended up leaving without my cleaning. I no longer recommend this dental office.

This past year we decided to start looking for a new dentist. I wasn’t happy with the service my current dentist was providing, and the drive to their office was really out of the way. I found Dr. Wood and scheduled an appointment for my sons and I. The service that Dr. Wood and his staff provided is exactly what I was looking for in a dentist. Jill who works in the front office is very sweet and my boys love going to Dr. Wood. I’m really glad that we’ve found Dr. Wood’s office and happy to say that he will be our dentist from now on.

My husband and I are both patients of Dr. Wood and have been seeing him for a few months now. He did a crown for a titanium implant and a few fillings as well as a thorough inspection and tooth cleaning. For my husband, the inspections has begun, and I could not be more pleased with the professionalism. Dr. Wood and his staff are incredibly detail-​oriented with the entire process and if you have ever been to another dentist in your life, you will be shocked at the level they could be at if they followed Dr. Wood’s example. His staff is kind. The front desk ladies are kind. Kindness and professional medical knowledge and dedication are traits I have always hoped for and have never been able to find in a dentist. I highly recommend him and his practice.

Leaving my dentist back home of over 18 years made me VERY nervous. Since I’m new to the area I came to trusty Unilocal to help me find someone. I called & the lady on the other end of the phone was so unbelievably sweet & answered all of my questions, she got me in within 2 days. Upon my arrival I was greeted with such a warm welcome from all of the staff. I was taken back & seen promptly. Dr. Wood was so friendly & warm & everyone helped with my uneasiness. They talked me thru every step & when I came back 2 weeks later for my filling the ladies at the front remembered me & greeted me with the same friendly, warm demeanor as before. I was very nervous & actually shaking but Dr. Wood & his staff once again calmed my nerves & made me feel at ease. I’ve only been here twice but the staff has all made me feel like I’m a long time patient! I even received a letter with a hand-​written note from Dr. Wood thanking me for becoming his patient. I’ll be recommending them to EVERYONE!

As a new patient with a toothache I was very happy with the service provided. I got an appointment quickly and same-​day resolution. My tooth was pulled fairly painlessly and the follow-​up was great. I got a call from the office staff to check on me a little while after the appointment and another call from Dr. Wood later in the day. No complaints here. Great job.

As always… A+ service from Dr. Wood and his wonderful staff.

30 min for a quick filling… same day as my cleaning!
Great!
I have been visiting Dr. Woods for a long time, since I was small, and I think he does an honest service and would recommenced him.
I travel over 20 miles to have my cleaning done with him and his team.

Dr. Wood is an amazing dentist. He is friendly, knowledgeable and cares about his patients. He never makes me feel rushed when I am asking questions and he makes me feel at ease in the chair. I have never felt pushed into making any hasty decisions on major dental work.
His staff is just amazing as well. Everyone is friendly and they greet you by name. When they gave me a referral for an orthodontist, they provided me with all information that I needed and also offered to send any information over to save me time. Liz, the dental hygienist, has always done my cleanings and she is such a genuinely sweet person. She always takes her time and I feel great when she has completed the cleaning.
The exam rooms and front office are clean and modern. I feel very relaxed when I am in the office, either waiting or sitting in the chair. All machinery is never outdated or worn. I tell everyone how great Dr. Wood and his staff are all the time!

I have been to many dentists and I must say that I am so very impressed with Dr. Wood. He is kind, gentle, caring and thorough. I had to have my tooth extracted and will need to have an implant done. He has helped me in getting this set up. I was also incredibly impressed that the night I had the tooth extracted he HIMSELF, called to make sure I was doing okay! I was unable to answer the call but I felt so honored that he would take the time to check up on me. He also offered me a direct line to get a hold of him if I were to have any issues. The customer service of Mary and Jill is spectacular, they are wonderfully sweet ladies to work with and I enjoy talking with them. The hygenist (unfortunately I cannot remember her name) was sweet, wonderful and so caring. The assistant (whose name I have also forgotten) for my extraction was also just amazing. I was quite anxious and even though I had the laughing gas I expected to feel some pain (I did not but the expectation was there… sounds etc.). She knew just how to calm my nerves and help me to relax.
I am so incredibly impressed with this office and am so glad I followed through on the referral I received from a friend. You cannot go wrong with Dr. Wood!

Let me preface this review with this simple statement: I HATE going to the dentist. I don’t mean I dislike it or it is unpleasant for me. I mean I really really HATE going to the dentist. I grew up with military dentists and if you grew up going to them you understand. Dr. Wood is very patient and considerate with people like me. He explains what he is doing and why. He also gives me laughing gas right after he finishes talking about what we are doing for that visit. That stuff is wonderful and makes going to the dentist so much easier. I have to also say that I refer to my teeth as ‘the million dollar mouth’ because of the amount of dental work I have had and still need. Dr. Wood did my most recent, but not last, crown. I have a mouth full of crowns and am on my second or third set for most of them so I have some experience with the procedure. The crown Dr. Wood put in is the best fitting, most natural looking crown I have. No gaps and the color is darn near a perfect match and I am not easy to match on color. It was also the least painless crown procedure I have ever had done and one of the most reasonably priced. Could I feel this way because of the gas? Maybe… but I do think part of it was because of the Dr’s skill. The staff is wonderful, Jill and Mary at the front desk are friendly and caring. Kathy is the hygienist and does a great job. These women are great and I almost feel sorry for the Dr when they start teasing him. Almost but not quite. If you are looking for a good dentist in this area, take a few minutes and check out Dr. Wood. You will be glad you did.
