Dr. Averill came highly recommended by a colleague, in fact I think she recommended him about…read moretwenty times before I actually went. I have a pretty horrific dental history. It's littered with all sorts of budget botch jobs and terrifying experiences. Since my absolute NEED to visit Dr. Averill was indisputable, my enthusiasm to test the skills and demeanor of another dentist was pretty much non-existent. When I began to have symptoms of infection I was told by a Doctor friend that this could affect my over all health and that a substantial amount of strain was being put on my heart... yeah, that's a very real thing. I decided to call Dr. Averill's office. The sheer joy and warmth offered by Johanna, Dr. Averill's receptionist had me feeling confident and ready to take on my fears, of course when the appointment drew closer I ended up canceling. It took me about 3 cancellations until I eventually made an appointment that I showed up for, and while it was a formidable challenge for me I am eternally grateful that I mustered to courage to follow through. There are a few free parking spots designated for the office right across the street in the Pearl Street Beverage parking lot, there are also metered spots along the street. When you enter the office you will be greeted by the same bubbly voice who made your appointment, Johanna. She's bright and candid, like a character from a book, always greeting patients with an ear to ear smile while she taps aways on her computer. The office is small and the staff is pleasant and really connects with clientele. The wait is always short, sometimes they just usher you right into the chair; they seem to keep to their appointment times very well. It's not an inexpensive venture, going to see the dentist just isn't going to be, but when you get genuine care and compassion from a dentist the expense grows a bit irrelevant. I have saved and saved just so that I can continue my care under Dr. Averill. His patience and willingness to understand my challenges has completely reversed my fear of going to the dentist. His assistant, Dixie is nothing short of a godsend. She has a vast knowledge of all things dentistry and is happy to help you understand any part of a procedure; she also happens to be one of the most empathetic women I have ever met. Dr. Averill developed a laundry list of oral procedures that were essential to the health of my mouth, and we quite simply tackled them one at a time, starting with the most crucial and working our way through. It took a while, but now, after years of suffering, I am finally in good oral health. Having a dentist (and dental staff) that you feel open and comfortable with really is what made this all come together. The care I receive at Dr. Averill's office is of the highest caliber. He takes the time to truly understand you, his concern feels genuine and his acumen is simply remarkable. I would recommend this office to anyone and particularly to people who have been victim of substandard dental procedures or have a fear of returning to the dentist. I have recommended a few others to visit Dr. Averill as well and their experiences have all been similar to my own. Pulling myself together and visiting 239 Pearl Street was the beginning of the end to my dental complications, hands down, best... decision... ever.

After moving to the area, I spent considerable time researching dental practices because I had…read morespecific criteria: diversity at all levels, impeccable cleanliness and sanitation practices, and quality care. After reading countless reviews, I chose Colchester Dental Group, and I'm so glad I did. My first appointment was with Dr. Wiese to establish care, get x-rays, and set up my routine cleaning schedule. From the moment I walked in, I knew I'd made the right choice. What impressed me immediately was that they gave me a full tour of the practice during my first visit, something I'd never experienced at a dental office before! This transparency made me feel welcome and showed they have nothing to hide. The office is immaculate, and their sanitation practices are clearly taken seriously. From check-in to check-out, every staff member was professional, friendly, and efficient. Dr. Wiese was thorough and took time to explain each step of the process. The x-rays were done efficiently, and the initial exam was comprehensive without feeling rushed. They clearly prioritize preventive care and patient education. The quality of care exceeded my expectations. Dr. Wiese was gentle, knowledgeable, and genuinely seemed to care about my dental health and concerns. The entire team worked seamlessly together, and I felt I was in capable, caring hands throughout both appointments. The diversity I was hoping to find is evident throughout the practice, which creates a welcoming environment for everyone. I've now had two appointments and both experiences have been excellent. I'm confident I've found my long-term dental home!
