    Went here after receiving a flyer in the mail for a dentist with the same name as me. Thought it…read morewas ment to be. She was great but six months later She left and I was put with a new dentist. Was not informed about this until I showed up for my appointment. Little did I know this would be the standard for every appointment that followed. I'm an idiot for giving them multiple second chances. It has been a revolving door of dentists. No one stays. You may as well be going to a school. The third dentist I saw filled multiple cavities and created issues I never had. I didn't have any issues until this filling. That tooth hurt and felt strange when I rubbed my tongue over it after he filled it for six months, when I returned. Another new dentist. He told me that tooth was now chipped- was perfectly fine before the previous filling- but assured me he could fix it. I reluctantly agreed. But to my surprise he fixed it. He was the BEST dentist I saw at this clinic. I started an Invisalign treatment with him. Took longer than it should to get trays. Was told at my next appointment they were having issues because the clinic was trying to put my case with another dentist and not with him. The practice called me and asked if I would be willing to see another dentist at a completely different office across town. I declined. The next appointment I am greeted by yet again-another new dentist... Tried to find where last dentist went online. Shockingly after googling him, despite being the best dentist I saw there, had the worst reviews of any single dentist I have ever seen in my life. I'm talking bad. Like 1 star across the board. Sidenote -I did find him and went to see him. Then was asked by him if I could demand a refund back at this practice and pay him- that day on a credit card to transfer my Invisalign. I only had about five trays left at this point. I declined that request too and wont be back there either. Had an appointment to pick up my last trays a few weeks ago. Showed up and was told my appointment had to be rescheduled because no dentists there was Invisalign certified. Desire, the secretary, did try to call me and left a voice mail but it was a Friday afternoon and appointment was for Monday morning. I still received a confirmation text Sunday, the day before. In my experience if an appointment needs to be rescheduled, they just cancel the appointment so you don't get conflicting information. I think it goes without saying if you get a text saying your appointment has been canceled, you will call back. Really disappointed in the chaos and unprofessionalism of everyone involved. I could keep going. Had one dental hygienist here ask me about my short-term rental business and showed interest in a vacation rental. I text her info to my air bnbs at her request and then she asked to me for a discount! Not in a funny way. She was dead serious.

    Update 2: Never had any pain or sensitivity after my deep cavity filling! :) And today, I got my…read morecustom made TMJ device. Dr. Spink was so kind and made sure it fit me comfortably! I am very much looking forward to using it!

    I have been to several dentists over the course of my life. I have had jacked up teeth due to not…read moretaking care of my teeth and always chewing gum growing up. I have seen quite a few dentists and been quoted 50 and 75 thousand dollars to " truly " fix my teeth. I have been told it would be a fix that may need re fixing after 10 or so years. I have never showed my teeth or smiled with an open mouth. The very first time I met with Dr Pruitt and his staff, I was completely at ease. They took the time to explain my options, and helped me through being able to secure financial options that I could afford. The very first day after I left his office I went to wal mart and 2 different ladies stopped me and told me I had "beautiful teeth"!! I have never in 59 years ever heard someone say something positive about my smile!! I wish I had done this 40 years ago! I highly recommend them! They promised a life changing experience! They have definitely delivered!!!!! Thank you so much for giving me the confidence that I have never had!!!!

    Dr. Pruitt completely ruined my teeth. He said "trust me,…read moretrust me" .... And I did. **check Reddit for more *real* reviews on this guy!!!! ** Dr Pruitt shaved down my teeth & gums down to almost nothing. He never properly addressed my problems, instead pushed blame, and lied to my face. I'm not sure he even knows ANYTHING about real dentistry to be honest.. he is EXTREMELY aggressive - leaving me in A LOTTTTTT of pain after each visit, and almost always, an infection. Dr. Pruitt also REFUSES to ever take accountability for his wrongdoings. Red flag right there He cared more about what my reaction would be for the camera rolling (after waiting 1hr in the chair being told not to look "he wants to see my reaction" btw) - then my genuine care and comfort of a new, "amazing quality, healthy smile" - I knew I was in serious trouble.. After leaving his work unfinished - even after a second attempt, with a second set of PERMANENT crowns(and multiple temporaries) I will still need them ALL completely redone. The problems he was suppose to fix with the second set of perms, I have begun having the same issues, the problem is STILL not resolved. Almost a year later! Dr. Pruitt denied me a refund, but he made sure he had me sign a piece of paper denying ANY wrongdoings - even after giving me laughing gas, and novacane (keep in mind, I had no teeth in my mouth- just the grinded stumps he left in my mouth) and I was too numb to explain myself (i had Theresa go back 3 times to fix the paper before I gave up) I Traveled to Alabama, from NY a total of - SEVEN TIMES!!! And LOST close to 100k$ in the process!!!!! he promised to take care of "my nightmare", but the nightmare really had just begun. STAY AWAY FROM THIS ESTABLISHMENT!! He is NOT who he portrays to be. Use your discernment with this guy, seriously.. he did serious damage to me, for life.

    I have used Gooch Family Dentistry for me and my family for years. The office staff is always…read morefriendly and helpful. They make me feel at ease during procedures and always looking for ways to make me feel comfortable. I used to dread the dentist, but they changed that for me.

    I am writing this review based on my sister's experience working at this dental office, as well as…read morewhat she shared with me about the workplace. My sister is a Black woman, and the way Black employees were treated raised serious concerns for me. She also described what she felt was unequal treatment among employees. According to her, one white employee was allowed to contribute very little to the workplace without facing the same level of scrutiny or consequences as others. This created concerns about favoritism and unequal standards. I also learned about another Black female employee who reportedly passed out after being exposed to blood. She continued working there afterward but was reportedly fired approximately a year later. This raised additional concerns about how Black employees were treated. It seems to be a pattern with Black individuals in general. Seeing Dr. Gooch wearing a "Gulf of America" T-shirt also made me uncomfortable and contributed to my concerns about the workplace environment. Based on my sister's experience and what she shared with me, I would encourage anyone considering this office to carefully consider their options.
