Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The Best
Dr Fosset and his staff are amazing! They are all professional and extremely knowledgeable! They explain what they are doing and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Thank you all for all you do!

Trustworthy
I have been going to Dr. Fossett for over 40 years, first with Dr. Doug and now with Dr. David. I have always trusted them and felt that they were conservative and didn't do more than necessary. I have always been welcomed and treated with respect. The staff is excellent and you can tell they are treated well and are happy to be there. They have treated my whole family and I highly recommend them.

Excellent Care
All Staff members are both friendly and courteous. It is easy to get an appointment. Dr. Fossett explains any procedures needed in detail, but lets the patient decide on the treatment plan. He is conservative, but thorough. Prices are very reasonably compared with other dentists in the area.

Excellent all the way around
Dr. Fossett has been my dentist going on 10 years. I hope to never have to have another. He's great, caring and excellent in explaining care, the why's, hows and when it comes time for procedures, there's none better. I have no complaints, the staff is exceptional, and could not recommend them more. If you're wondering about whether or not to use Dr. Fossett, you can stop here. I highly recommend him, his office and the great people there.

I visited Dr. Fossett office to have my teeth cleaned and a routine visit. I have been with Dr. Fossett for the last 4 years after my previous dentist in Santee past away. I have always had a very good relationship with Dr. Fossett's office.

Great and attentive
Dr. Fossett was very attentive to my son. He was able to see him the same day and took care of his abscess tooth next day. We are grateful for such quick and caring help. Thank you so much!

Dental offices make me nervous but from my first call to first visit, I was put completely at ease. Dr. Fossett explained all my options, didn’t try to up sell me, and was gentle and kind. I’m over the moon with the work he did and for the first time I feel confident when I smile! I’ve now scheduled my whole family for visits and know I will be a lifelong client at this office. All of the staff are amazingly kind and super responsive. And Dr. Fossett took a lot of time walking me though everything and gave me lots of opportunity for questions and input. He also uncovered a dental issue I’d brought up to 2 previous dentists- they told me there was no reason for my pain but he found remnants of a tool there! I trust this office and they stand by their work.
