Two years ago Dr. Watkins replaced the crown on my front right tooth. Wasn’t a couple of weeks and it broke off. Had to go back in and have it completely redone. Soon after, it broke again. He did correct it again, but I was done with him. Went to another dentist in Chatham for my next checkup. They did new x-rays and could see how poorly this was done, telling me it was necessary to have a new one made and put on. Unfortunately, my insurance paid Midwest and won’t allow another one for 5 years. 2 years after the poor job was done and redone, I get a bill in the mail from midwest for $84, stating it was a portion denied by insurance. Needless to say I will not be paying for this and plan to file a claim with the BBB.

I have always had bad experiences with dentists. This morning I had my second appointment with Midwest Dental in Jacksonville and the experience there was a God send. I had 1 filling replaced and 2 teeth prepped for caps, and it was the most exciting experience I have ever had with a dentist. Dr. Watkins and his staff make you feel so comfortable. They have music playing to make you feel more comfortable. I would highly recommend Midwest Dental for all of you dentistry needs. They do take really good care of there patients.

I've been a patient of Dr. Mike's since I have had teeth. Dr. Mike does excellent work. He is an unbelievably kind man. He has seen my father on nights and weekends when he has had emergencies in the past. Wendy is my hygienist and she does a phenomenal job. She too is incredibly kind. Overall I enjoy the fact that they do not push products or procedures that they do not truly believe in or believe that you need. I trust them. I'll be a patient for as long as Mike practices.

He gives the most thorough examination I've ever had, including a cancer screening. Kudos to this team and I highly recommend them!

After a somewhat traumatic experience from a dentist I saw in California, I have avoided going to a dentist for the past 8 years. Something went wrong with one of my teeth and I finally had no choice but to see a dentist to get it fixed . . . pronto. I chose Dr. Watkins from all of his wonderful reviews. I can say without hesitation that I completely agree with the glowing reviews. He was the most kind and understanding dentist I have ever visited. I no longer feel completely apprehensive and paralyzed in response to going to the dentist. He was thoughtful and explained everything he was doing with such a kind voice and patience. If anyone is avoiding going to the dentist out of fear, I will encourage you to make a visit with him. I'm very grateful to him and his staff for making my visit comfortable. Thank you, Dr. Watkins and all of your staff members!

I have always had bad experiences with dentists. This morning I had my second appointment with Midwest Dental in Jacksonville and the experience there was a God send. I had 1 filling replaced and 2 teeth prepped for caps, and it was the most exciting experience I have ever had with a dentist. Dr. Watkins and his staff make you feel so comfortable. They have music playing to make you feel more comfortable. I would highly recommend Midwest Dental for all of you dentistry needs. They do take really good care of there patients.

I've been a patient of Dr. Mike's since I have had teeth. Dr. Mike does excellent work. He is an unbelievably kind man. He has seen my father on nights and weekends when he has had emergencies in the past. Wendy is my hygienist and she does a phenomenal job. She too is incredibly kind. Overall I enjoy the fact that they do not push products or procedures that they do not truly believe in or believe that you need. I trust them. I'll be a patient for as long as Mike practices.

The best dental experience my family has ever received. Professional, courteous and friendly staff. My 7 year old actually likes going to the dentist and I don't dread it. Hanna is friendly and makes you feel comfortable during your xrays and cleanings. I'm glad I finally found a dentist I enjoy visiting. I highly recommend Dr. Mike and staff where you don't just feel like a number.?

wonderful dentist, very gentle, the one lady that cleans the teeth has been there 20 years and is excellent.

Dr. Mike and Wendy absolutely turned me around and have my teeth all fixed up and I truly enjoying going for dental appointments now. It is honestly something I look forward to. Can't find a much friendlier staff anywhere!!!!!!!

He gives the most thorough examination I've ever had, including a cancer screening. Kudos to this team and I highly recommend them!

After a somewhat traumatic experience from a dentist I saw in California, I have avoided going to a dentist for the past 8 years. Something went wrong with one of my teeth and I finally had no choice but to see a dentist to get it fixed . . . pronto. I chose Dr. Watkins from all of his wonderful reviews. I can say without hesitation that I completely agree with the glowing reviews. He was the most kind and understanding dentist I have ever visited. I no longer feel completely apprehensive and paralyzed in response to going to the dentist. He was thoughtful and explained everything he was doing with such a kind voice and patience. If anyone is avoiding going to the dentist out of fear, I will encourage you to make a visit with him. I'm very grateful to him and his staff for making my visit comfortable. Thank you, Dr. Watkins and all of your staff members!
