Great dentist, very warm and amiable, really took the time to explain things and get to know me! 10/10 would recommend!
It was a great experience, and I felt very heard. The dentist took his time to meet with me and discuss any questions or issues I had. He walked through and explained every step as he went through it.

Verified patient
Dr. Williams and his staff were great. I was seen at my appointment time (no long waits), he explained what the issues were, and the clinic were helpful in working with my insurance. Highly recommend!
The best doctor ever, I would recommend him and his entire team. Dr. Williams put me at ease . I was afraid of dentists because of 3 bad experiences from the past, but because of his kind staff and his mannerisms toward his patients, I was put at ease.
Verified patient
This dentist tried to upsell me on expensive reconstructive dental surgery. I visited an orthodontist for a second opinion, who told me that there was absolutely nothing wrong with my mouth. He also did a filling that popped out only 3 months after the appointment even though I carefully take care of my teeth.
Verified patient
10/10. So glad I found him in DC
Verified patient
After a negative experience with a previous dentist in Bethesda that left me with vertigo I wanted to find a new dentist located in DC. Dr. Williams profile came highly recommended and I agree! After just one visit I'm impressed he took the time to talk to me beforehand and he is friendly, professional, and compassionate. His staff is friendly and professional as well, and the office was clean with masked employees. I look forward to continue seeing Dr. Williams.
Verified patient
Dr Thomas is the best! He is very kind, patient and has excellent bedside manner. I am so lucky to have stumbled upon his profile on zocdoc and to approach his clinic for services. He explained everything that he was doing to ensure that I know what was going on. He took the time to take my history, understand my family history and shared about his family and how he came into the profession - he truly built a relationship with me - something no one does any more. Karen at the front desk was very kind and all the staff had excellent manners! I highly recommend him!
Verified patient
Thomas is by far the best dentist I've ever had. He took time to get to know me and thoughtfully shared context for everything we covered. I felt educated about all the topics we covered and I look forward to returning for more regular cleanings.

Verified patient
First experience was great. I was there for a 9:30 . Staff check in was great and they explained how my insurance worked. Met with Dr. Williams shortly after and asked me about my dental background and was very pleasant from initial consult to my cleaning. Would highly recommend.
Verified patient
As a new patient, Dr. Williams sat down to talk and get to know me before proceeding to the actual dental work. There is definitely a focus put on the patient's interests. In the end it is still a dentist appointment and not particularly enjoyable, but it went as smoothly as I could expect.
Verified patient
Dr. Williams has been my dentist for many years. He is always on time and it is never difficult to get an appointment. He is thorough and thoughtful. There are countless providers closer to my home, but I would never consider leaving Dr. Williams. As a bonus, his office staff is terrific, particularly Karen!
My appointment was as thorough and professional as always. I've never had a bad experience in this practice; and Dr. Williams has been my dentist for more than 40 years.
