I had an amazing experience with Dr. Dorita Newsome-Dobbins and her team! Dr. Newsome-Dobbins and her assistant were so welcoming, very thorough during the exam/cleaning and was also very kind to my very nervous 11 year old daughter (she hates going to the dentist). Lovely experience! We will be back!

I had an excellent experience at my recent dentist appointment. From start to finish, the entire visit was smooth and professional. The dentist took the time to thoroughly explain my treatment options and answered all of my questions with great detail and patience. It was clear that they were very knowledgeable and truly cared about ensuring I felt comfortable throughout the process. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the calm, reassuring approach they took. Overall, I left feeling confident in the care I received and would highly recommend this dentist to anyone looking for quality dental care.

I am very happy with my visit to the dentist I was seen by the dentist as described on zocdoc and my wait time was not long. Also I was able to get the information I wanted from her, she listened to me and I’m happy with her services

Lovely office, gentle professional service
June 3, 2024Lauren H.Verified patient
As a 23 year old, I had never been to the dentist before in my life (ik sounds terrible). When I tell y’all she made me so comfortable. I had anxiety about going to the dentist my entire life. She completely took away that fear. Relatively painless for the amount of buildup I had. Even gave me an estimate of what my payment could be with my nsurabce fur my next visit. Thank you so much for helping me start my oral health journey.

May 15, 2023Eugene J.Verified patient
The office was a mess. The cabinets weren’t organized and the needle for the novocaine looked rusty. I was disgusted and she was painful
August 1, 2022Sammy V.Verified patient
Doctor has a really good personality and she is super engaging. Really enjoyed our small talk and look forward to going back.
May 27, 2022Maurice T.Verified patient
Dr Dobbins is a gem . Her expertise and way of assisting her patient to practice great dental hygiene is phenomenal. It was my first time and I will be back in six months. Plus she gives dental goodies bags lol
Khadijah P.Verified patient
I could book an emergency appointment through Zocdoc though I was a new patient. Dr. Dobbins was very thorough and patient throughout the process. She was clear and concise in answering all my questions. It was a good experience. Will return to the doctor as needed.
May 3, 2022Padma S.Verified patient
The doctor listened carefully to my concerns and really took her time with me. I was worried that because I was a new patient and also having mild pain in my gums she would try to push me towards an expensive procedure I did not need (scaling, root canal). Nothing at all like that, just gave me some very pragmatic advice to address the discomfort, and said she would check on it when I came back to fill a cavity in a different tooth,

September 7, 2021Rebecca C.Verified patient
Wonderful doctor and treatment. I was contacted by the office to adjust my appointment time slightly. The staff was extremely kind and courteous. The doctor did a great job and had a wonderful personality.
April 3, 2021Leah N.Verified patient
It had been about four years since I had been to the dentist, so I was naturally a bit apprehensive to go. Dr. Dobbins did a fantastic job at assuaging my worry. She is genuinely pleasant to talk to, extremely knowledgeable and has a steady hand. Going to the dentist isn't on anyone's list of most fun things to do, but Dr. Dobbins is going to give you a wonderful experience and spend the time she needs to with you to ensure you get the best care possible. Honestly, can't recommend her enough.
April 3, 2021Zachary S.Verified patient
Dr. Dorita Newsome-Dobbins was excellent. She took her time during the check up and was informative. She takes each step with care and let’s you know what you need to do for better dental hygiene. I learned more about my teeth than I ever have and she even gifted me a dental goodie bag! Definitely highly recommend her!
March 8, 2021Nasma H.Verified patient
Dr. Dobbins was so amazing!
March 6, 2021Brittany S.Verified patient
Dr. Newsome-Dobbins was very polite, patient and pleasant. She was extremely thorough in her examination, has a gentle hand and provided excellent education on dental hygiene. My wait time was zero and the office had already printed my forms so I had zero paperwork to complete when I arrived at my visit. Highly recommend!
February 6, 2021Maglenny A.Verified patient
I absolutely loved my experience with Dr Dobbins. She was very sweet and took her time. I didn’t have to wait long to be seen. She explained in detail throughout her examination. Overall I am satisfied with my experience.
January 27, 2021Andrea C.Verified patient
The suite number in Zocdoc is incorrect. The doctor is in suite #206 not 204. There was plenty of parking and the doctor took me right in. She is friendly, knowledgable and answered all my questions. I would definitely recommend.
January 13, 2021Jill C.Verified patient
Amazing and so comforting! Normally I’m afraid to go to the dentist but she made feel very safe and gave me so many tips to improve my dental health!
