“My experience with Dr. Robinson was wonderful. She is professional, kind and caring. I needed a cavity filled and root canal or extraction on my remaining wisdom teeth. Dr Robinson filled the cavity and recommended an oral surgeon who could remove my wisdom teeth without me getting off warfarin. That was a major decision because my prior dentist insisted that I get off the blood thinner. I’ve already had two strokes, and Dr. Robinson’s work and recommendations put me greatly at ease. I would highly recommend her. ”

“Dr. Robinson was amazing! very friendly & thorough. She did a great job fixing a chipped tooth I had from a composite fill done at another dental office, that wasn’t done properly. Her assistant Maria was kind & patient as well, and her front desk staff is great also especially Lavette! I highly recommend her & will be returning.”

Dr. Robinson is the absolute best! I am someone who experienced serious dental trauma as a teenager/young adult. I’ve had lifelong anxiety with any and all dental care. Dr. Robinson is so compassionate and patient. She always takes the time to not only care for my oral health but, also my mental health.
Dr. Robinson is the absolute best! I highly recommend her. She cares for my entire family with patience, compassion, and the utmost skill.

I love visiting Dr. Robinson at Watergate Dental. She is truly the best, I've sent all my friends to go see her too and they all feel the same!
May 26, 2021Virginia P.Verified patient
As with my last two visits I have been incredibly pleased with the service I have been provided by both Dr Robinson and the dental hygienist. All members of staff at the surgery are wonderfully polite and friendly and I do not believe I will ever want to go to a different dentist again. Thank you so much!
May 17, 2021Zoe D.Verified patient
They do what you're comfortable with.
April 15, 2021Tiffany Q.Verified patient
Dr Robinson made the appointment as relaxing as possible. I have had some very bad experiences at dental appointments in the past and this has created a lot of dental anxiety. However, I mentioned this to Dr Robinson and she listened to my concerns and took everything slowly. She gave me the opportunity to tell her if anything was wrong and asked me numerous times to ensure that I was doing okay. The cleaning was wonderful and the dental assistant whose name I believe was Penny was also absolutely lovely. They were such a perfect team and I do not intend to see any other dentist again whilst I'm living in DC. I could not recommend them more.
April 14, 2021Zoe D.Verified patient

Dr. Robinson is an amazing dentist. She truly cares about her patients and offers personalized dental advice. She will only offer suggestions for procedures if she believes you need them. She will never try to upsell you on dental work. She is by far the best dentist I have ever been to. She is trustworthy and talented and I highly recommend.
More than 1 year agoNN
I would not even think about letting anyone other Dr. Robinson touch my teeth (unless of course she referred me). Dr. Robinson and staff are the kindest and most proficient team I have encountered. For the first time, I have a dentist that I truly believe is interested in my health and not my wallet. No longer do a fear a trip to the dentist!
