Dr Ernie Watson

Normally I HATE the dentist office but I’m new in town and new to Dr Watson and he is amazing ! Very patient and kind and his Assistants are awesome too. Special mention about Jennifer in the front office, she is smiling, pleasant and never too bothered and always willing to check on our insurance for me. I love that ! Thank you.

My family has been using Dr. Ernie Watson for many years with complete satisfaction. Dr. Watson is one of the ‘good guys’ who practices ‘no nonsense’ dentistry. His approach is always that of common sense and good advice. Going to the dentist is never fun but, Ernie and his staff take (almost) all of the pain out it!

I’ve had only 2 dentists my whole life– the first one from when I had baby teeth until I turned 18 and got my own insurance, then changed to Dr. Watson. He was much closer to my home at the time, and by a weird coincidence, I had gone to school with his son. I’ve now been his patient for over ten years, and even though I moved almost 30 miles away, I won’t change to another dentist.
Dr. Watson is very cheerful, which makes it easier– no one likes going to the dentist, right? He always uses ice to make sure you’re fully numb before he works on your teeth, and lets you know up front how much your filling/​crown/​etc will cost. The receptionists also check your insurance every time so if you have a yearly limit they can space out the work so you don’t pay more than you have to. Dr. Watson emphasizes that the sooner he repairs it, the less money and pain it will cost the patient. We all know how exspensive dental work can be, which is why a lot of people just don’t go to a dentist, but he does try to work with you if something is going to cost a lot– spacing out appointments for a procedure so you can make a payment each time instead of owing a huge amount up front.
My daughter just started going to the dentist regularly, and she loves it. She doesn’t find it scary at all. Everyone at the office has known her since she was a baby– sometimes I had to bring her with me, and Jennifer (the receptionist) would kindly take my daughter in her carseat behind the desk and watch her while I had my appointment. They also have a wall mounted tv in the waiting room and will put on a dvd to keep your kid entertained while you’re in the chair.
