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.

Dr. Odum was very caring and his assistants made me feel very comfortable during the procedure!

I was VERY nervous about going, from the moment when I walked in the door I was treated with professionalism, kindness & friendliness. Dr Odum is the BEST Dentist I have ever been to. He truly cares about the patient in his chair. If I could go to him for all my dental needs I would. He is very professional, concerned about the discomfort and caring. Thank you Dr. Odum and staff for your thoughtfulness, caring & professionalism.

Dr. Odum was very professional and detailed oriented in not only the procedure itself but also in it's explanation. I had a root canal done and it was quick, painless, and had no complications after the surgery. Would highly recommend Dr. Odum to anyone seeking his services.
