I’ve been extremely happy with the care I’ve received from Dr. Matthews and his entire staff. Every visit is professional, friendly, and thorough from start to finish. They take the time to explain everything clearly and make sure you’re completely comfortable. It’s rare to find a team that combines such a high level of expertise with genuine kindness, but they do it every time.
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dentist they can truly trust.

Dr. Matthews and Amanda truly went above and beyond—they were absolute lifesavers! I was in severe pain, and they worked me into their schedule with such care and urgency. The entire team at Dothan Dental Group is exceptional—compassionate, professional, and dedicated to providing outstanding customer service. Dr. Matthews has an amazing personality and communicates so effectively, making the whole experience much more comfortable. I strongly recommend Dr. Matthews and his team!

Can’t say enough good things about Dothan Dental. From the phone call to schedule an appointment to the dental chair everyone is so kind and efficient. I’ve been going for years and never had a bad experience.

I have been using Dr. Matthews for years. He, as well as all his staff, is always professional but super friendly and caring. They make me feel as if I am their only patient and my dental health is their top priority. I have become part of their family and I never dread or get nervous about going to "see the dentist". It has always been an enjoyable experience even with fillings and root canals!
I highly recommend this group for all your dental needs.

Great experiences. I don’t like going to the dentist but this office makes it much more bearable. Anna is a great dental hygienist. She made me feel comfortable and was gentle with my teeth. Dr. Matthews does excellent work. They have earned my business.
