    I can't say enough good things about Athens Family Dental. I've been coming here for years, and…read moreafter a couple of years away, I made the mistake of trying a different dental office closer to me -- and it was a terrible experience. They tried to tell me I needed 10-15 crowns, multiple procedures, and quoted me outrageous prices. I came back to Athens Family Dental for a second opinion, and as always, they were kind, honest, and professional. They let me know I only needed one crown for an old filling and didn't try to upsell me on anything unnecessary. The staff made me feel so comfortable and reassured after such a stressful experience elsewhere. I've learned my lesson -- I'll never go anywhere else again. If you want a dental office that actually cares about their patients and their well-being, Athens Family Dental is the place to go.

    My son had his wisdom teeth removed, and despite being told I could stay until he fell asleep, the…read moredoctor abruptly asked me to leave the moment he arrived even though my son wasnt out yet. The nurses then made unprofessional comments about me after I left that my son heard and then they laughed about each comment including calling me a "helicopter mom" saying oh, the helicopter is out there just letting y'all know. I'm assuming that's when I left the front waiting area to the very next one closer to him because a nurse came out going towards the office and looked at me funny and turned around and went back, then my son told me they used profanity while getting him in the wheelchair. While the procedure was efficient, the bedside manner was lacking and that's putting it mildly. If you want anyone in the from office to be kind or even smile. Thr nurses literally laugh on the phone when they say hold on and seem irritated that you even call. I would caution others, especially parents of sensitive children, any children with disabilities, or matter of fact any child at all because it's uncalled for so I would say to consider a different place. Because my son heard all of this, and I didn't tell my son anything about the things he heard me say to the doctor,So that was a rough for my husband and I when he said all that on the way home. The main surgeon was extremely kind and made eye contact and was just very sweet and straight to the point very thorough though but the doctor who flew in saying I have to go, times up get out we're on a time limit here, he's asleep. I was trying to explain well sir he can't be because literally when he walked in she was injecting my his son.My biggest issue is he heard them talking about his mama and laughing at his mama, whispering. He said they talked about many other things but he said he couldn't defend me not being able to speak. I told my son at the end of this life we have to answer to what we do. That it's not his responsibility and they're grown adults and should do better. Thankfully everything went well during surgery but Please consider going somewhere else if you want some kindness and a better bedside manner. I don't usually ever ever ever leave a review but for the next parent please consider somewhere else. I'm thankful my child is older but could not magine a younger child sitting there with adults bashing their parent. Hearing my son say the worst part of the surgery was that he kept trying to say stop talking about my mama please and he couldn't speak like I said earlier. That really broke my heart for Him. The doctor is not only surgeon, he is the manager over it all..He was and has been so kind on the phone but not giving me just a second to say goodbye instead of the back and forth get out all while everyone else in the room was silent it was like a Middle School bully and everyone is standing around doing nothing about it. These are grown​ adults acting and talking about others all while also being responsible for sedating your child or sedating anyone for that matter and while they do that they take the time to bully laugh about others. I can't comprehend it. Why even be in a medical field if you have no empathy whatsoever for your patient. Not just empathy respect kindness you name it. Words hurt the sharper than any two edged sword as the word of God clearly states. One day and I pray it never happens they may get a patient who they pick on and that might be a patient that may be going through something in their life that might be the last straw for them. I pray that to never happen. My son is a child of God and he along with our entire family is praying for this facility to learn to love and show kindness.

I had been with my previous dentist for over 20 years and was hesitant to change, but after hearing so many positive things, I decided to give them a try, and I am so glad I did. I won't be going back. Even though our family is moving to Augusta next year, we will be returning to Athens for our dental care with the Hall Dental team. I truly cannot recommend them highly enough!

    Dr. Hall is by far the best dentist in Athens. We've had excellent experience with him. We have a…read morevery large family, our younger children no longer see a pediatric dentist, due to the experiences that we had. This practice takes care of everyone in our family. As parents, we always want the very best experience for our children. We wish we'd never went the pediatric dentist route. Our experience at this practice FAR surpasses our experiences with local pediatric dentists. Brooke does all of our children's cleaning, & it absolutely phenomenal. Her experience level with children shows when they are in her chair. She just cleaned three of our children's teeth. Their office staff is A+. Being a patient in several different offices in the Athens area, many times the office staff can make or break it. I've left offices because of the office staff. Here they are all great! Our family highly recommends this practice.

The dental hygienists are top-notch, and the staff are always kind, friendly, and efficient. My two little boys had their first dental experiences here, and the dentists put them at ease and they both had good experiences and were excited to receive their balloons. My favorite thing about this practice is that they are receptive to your discomfort and if something isn't quite right, they will correct it right away. I also love how Dr. McRae's practice makes a point to give back to the community. I would highly recommend this practice.

I'm only 21 years old, and I came here to have a filling done. Ever since the filling, my bite has felt completely off, especially when I chew.On top of that, I continued having severe pain around the tooth. After getting a second opinion, I found out that the cavity was not completely filled. I would have never known this if I hadn't gone somewhere else to have it looked at.I really wish I had done more research before coming here. The staff was friendly, but unfortunately, friendliness does not make up for problems with the actual dental work. Now I have to deal with pain and have another dental professional correct the issue.Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend coming here for dental work, and I personally will not be returning.

    Pleasant staff initially. Well decorated office. I had 2 visits with Dr. Alex in 2022 for a second…read moreopinion. Everything seemed fine, until they told me they wanted to replace every tooth in my mouth. Surprised because I had been going to more than 1 dentist every 6 months, for years. At almost 70 years old, I wasn't looking for a Hollywood smile nor could I afford it. I continued to see a soon to be retired dentist that had been practicing in Athens for 40 years. I found out a couple months ago; my dentist sold his practice. Anxious to get a crown placed on my now year-old dental implant, I called Dr. Alex's office on 06/10/2026 and was told the doctor would look at it in the morning, and they would call me back. No return call. I just called back today, 06/15/26, and spoke to Dr. Alex's wife. She explained he was either out of the office last Thursday or didn't have time, and he doesn't work on Friday. She stated he wasn't comfortable with placing my crown on my now signed off implant. Also said Dr. Brett Gray, {Oral Surgery associates}. Dr. Gray holds 3 medical degrees and has been my doctor for over 20 years. Board certified Oral Surgeon. Maxo facial degree, and a medical degree. Emory University trained. Dr. Alex's wife stated he isn't educated in crowns. I argued. " I had 2 follow up visits to evaluate my implant at my oral surgeon. Received the green light for completion. Evidently Dr. Alex's wife knows better. By the way I was told that Dr. Alex hadn't even looked at my situation and was told to go to my current dentist that sold his practice, and is in his 70's, to place the crown. Basically, refused to see me. Very disappointed.

Everyone who helped me from the front desk to the exam room was personable & sincere. The procedure was very gentle, and my tooth looks as good as new! I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. Thank you to the team at Glenn Alex Dental.
