Ooooooowwwwww!!!! I had a couple of mouth sores (thank you chemotherapy, pain med, and autoimmune…read moredisease) and Dr Marshall cauterized them, and now they're still a *little* painful, but feel so much better than before!! In a couple of hours they won't hurt at all (not my first rodeo, thankyouverymuch!)! Dr Marshall is the best for fitting me in last minute, and working into lunch to help me with my pain. It's not worth it to see any other dentist than him!!

This office in general creates false charges for services not completed and or improperly files to…read moreinsurance. The doctor (Marshall) has repeatedly used excessive collections tactics and grossly tacked on charges. when asked to utilize the legal methods of collecting instead of emails, he deliberately went back and forth in an email thread. I have since reached of to the board of pharmacy and been provided with form to fill out in which I intend to immediately. I also informed this office that any previous charges predated September of this year, were included in and discharged in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and he has still attempted collections. I do not make threats and I will not look to resolve this matter amicably.

You know, I did the math and realized that Dr. Goins is my 7th dentist in 10 years. So the…read moreprospect of starting all over again with yet another dentist really did not thrill me. But, this was actually pretty painless. They were able to give a reasonable explanation of the prices based on my insurance discount card and schedule both me and the husband into slots that had been cancelled, so we got in within a week of calling. Given that it's just one guy, I expected a smaller office, but there were several people in the waiting room when I got there. They had sent the paperwork ahead, so I had that ready, and I was called back promptly. And I was reminded that I am a Yankee in a strange land, as my lovely hygienist (who was 60 if she was day) alternately called me sweetie, honey, baby, and dear. Now, this is NOT a hand-holding practice like my last dentist. I wanted my teeth cleaned and she did that, with a minimum of asking me about my history (both she and the doctor seemed to be able to tell a lot from just looking in my mouth, which was nice) or telling me what she was up to. There's no offer of Netflix, music, or a blanket, and honestly, I can do without all that crap, but if you are apprehensive or like a little less rough and tumble, this might not be the practice for you. Dr. Goins was very nice (and Southern...again, Yankee!), took a quick look, and declared me all set, come back in 6 months and call if I need anything. After my last dentist having declared me a periodontal near-disaster, this was certainly a refreshing change! I got exactly what I needed -- a good cleaning -- and no unnecessary procedures or worries, for a whopping $94 including bitewing x-rays. A-OK indeed.

I am in Minnesota and my daughter goes to UA. She called me and said she had fallen and broke her…read morefront tooth off. The next morning she went to a different dentist in the city and they did a horrible job fixing it! She called me in tears and asked what she could do. She told the dentist she was not happy with it, so they worked on her some more, made it worse and told her that was the best they could do. My daughter was devastated! We sent pictures to our dentist in MN and she said they should be able to repair it much better than it was, so my daughter made an appointment as New Image. At her consultation, the dentist confirmed he could make the broken tooth match her other front tooth. He spoke with me on the phone and we discussed insurance issues (since she had gone to a different dentist for this tooth already) and fees. She soon had her appointment to get it fixed and she is so happy with the outcome! She even scheduled her next appointment with him (rather than coming home for her cleaning)! Thank you for making my daughter smile again!!!

A random Google search led me to Tuscaloosa General Dentistry 5 years ago, but their excellent…read moreservice has done an impeccable job at keeping me as a patient. However, Dr. Carlson's & his amazing staff's incredible & knowledgeable dental care is only a portion of why their dental practice is the best.

I've been to 2 different dentists since this and they haven't seen any problems with cavities. This place is just way in over their heads with overhead and see $$$ with new patients! My job requires me to travel and stay in locations for a period of time. I was in need of a check up/cleaning and decided to give this place a try based on other reviews. The staff was very friendly and knowledgable. They asked me several times if I had any questions or concerns. I definitely felt like they care about their patients. Highly recommend this office!

The day of my appointment, I'm left sitting in the waiting room. First time, my appointment was at 10:00am. They called the day before and left a message on my phone confirming this time. The day of the appointment, they said I was mistaken, my appointment was at 11:00. I told them no, it was for 10:00 and played their confirming voice message from my iPhone to them . Today, the same thing happened, only my appointment was for 9:30, and they said it was for 10:00. I left. I'm not going back. That is two strikes, and I'm not letting them do this to me again. I'll find another dentist that respects my time.
