“Dr. Wood is a total master of dentistry. Everything he does is functional a beautiful. I have never met anyone in the waiting room who wasn't thrilled with him. I have been going to him for 30 years and will never leave. Why switch when you have perfection!
There was a man in the waiting room who said that he switched dentists when he moved, but came back because the other dentist screwed up his mouth. So now he has to spend more money to fix what the other dentist did. So sad!
Dr. Charles Wood listens, cares and is the master I say he is. You will love every result, because he insists on perfection.”
