Krista Keller My family and I love it here. We never have to wait more than 5 minutes for our appointments. My son just got a filling done, and he let them do it with no problems. The office is beautiful and staff are kind and attentive. My kids really like Dr. Elzawahry and his assistant Jennifer. Everything is always explained upfront, so we know what to expect with co-pays. Wouldnt go anywhere else!

Mary Moriarty My family loves Dr. Elzawahry! His staff are also awesome. Everyone there is very kind and gentle... his assistance even comfort you when the Dr. is giving you a shot. I recommend them to all family, co-workers and friends.

Susan Brewster I went to Dr. Elzawhary for many years. He wasnt able to take my insurance anymore so I just moved over to his wife in the next office. They were both very kind as was their staff. I had to move to Texas to be closer to my daughter so she could help me. I sure wish I could find a Dentist here with their expertise.

chloe warren My daughter was considered a child cleaning for years then when she turned 15 the price changed. Instead of informing us prior to the appointment that the cleanings would double in price they sprung it on us on her last visit when checking out. I did not think this was right and they did end up refunding the money and charging the original fee for the last time since there was no given notice. We didn’t make her next 6 month cleaning appointment and as time passed we forgot. When I called recently to see if I had already paid in advance for her cleaning, I was paying for two cleanings at a time, I was told by Chantel you have to get them done within 12 months or you lose that money. We are 2 months past that mark. I was never informed of this initially verbally or in writing. Also, no post card for appointment reminders? No calls? No email? Most dental practices inform you when you are due for an appointment 6 months in the future but I guess they are more concerned with keeping money for services not rendered. We won’t be back.

Michele B The office staff and dental staff are amazing here. They answered all my questions, and got me in as an emergency patient quickly. Scheduled my follow up appointment in a timely fashion. Dr Windham provided clear options. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good practice for you and your familys needs.
5 /5
Denny McGlon I would like to say how disappointed I am with Dr. Windham and his staff! I have been going there for several years up til today. A little over a year ago he pulled half of one of my teeth on the top right. I questioned why not extract whole tooth? This week that same tooth spilt again causing pain and I made an appointment today. When I arrived the assistant says to me they would need to take x-rays and perform a cleaning. I ask if I could skip the cleaning part. She said hold on and let me ask him. She returned and said they were not an emergency clinic and went on to say they would not address my tooth today, because I haven’t been there in a while. That was the whole point of me making the said appointment. My tooth was hurting and I needed it repaired or pulled! Dr. Windham and his staff do not appreciate their patients and his assistant was very, very unprofessional!!! Sometimes as a business it’s not all about the money!

Alison Tampellini Today was my first visit and i must say this is an amazing staff and made me feel super comfortable. i havent ben to the dentist in 14 years due to have a phobia after having a tumor removed out my mouth when i was young . This office made me feel at home and just great vibes and energy . Very glad i picked them to become my dental family

Robert Philyaw I’m am Thoroughly impressed by the Professionalism/Passion Dr. Fleigel brings to his practice. I mean, this guy calls me at home personally bc he pays attention to detail on another level that (coming from a patients point of view) is absolutely refreshing considering everyone else thinks of you as a number!!! His staff is an extension of himself. This professional is so good, I wanted to know who his personal General Dentist is. I mean, he expects only the best!! He’s former military & it’s obvious!!

Paul Holmes I went to Dr. Fleigel desperate to find someone who can get me a set of dentures that doesnt fall out or has to be glued in several times a day. After a thorough visit, with impressions done quite different than other places Ive been, I couldnt be happier with the results. They fit great, and I dont have to glue them in all the time. Also the dentures look way more life- like and easy to eat with. What a difference. So nice to go somewhere and their not just trying to see how much money they can get from you and your insurance.
5 /5
April Baldy My mom had 3 implant crowns placed by Dr. Fleigel! She’s loves her new teeth! He helped her get her smile and chewing back! My mom is also Korean and she sometimes worries about language barriers. She did NOT have that issue with Dr. Fleigel or with his wonderful assistant Lindsey. He took his time and made sure she was comfortable during her visits. :)

Joan Gentle Awesome, I had a severe abscess and after the swelling went down and I had been on antibiotics for a week, Dr Harrisons staff worked me in and he did a root canal which was performed without a bit of pain. He and his staff are super, and so very professional and genuinely caring. Im so thankful to have been referred to him. Would and will go to them again if the need arises. Thank you Dr Harrison and your awesome staff.
5 /5
Doug M. Botched my root canal and told me the pain is normal. Going on day 4 of sever pain after the procedure. Never going back here. He seems completely careless and rushes through the procedure. I received two root canals and the 2nd is just totally botched. This is just horrible. To top it off his assistant put the topical numbing in the wrong area of my mouth, so the shots were more painful than necessary, poor communication with his own stuff. For an office soooo focused on Jesus to the extreme of having a huge picture of JC in the office and singing gospel music into your mouth while working, you’d expect some more compassion and Proper steady work, instead it’s more like a nascar pit stop by a guy who’s too busy with Jesus to care about doing a good job. This guy needs to retire and open a church. Check out Rex’s reviews all good reviews are 6+ years old, all the bad ones are recent. Perhaps he’s just over his job.
1 /5
Jessica Parcher Had a great experience here. I came in extremely nervous with it being my first root canal. The staff was so nice as well as Dr. Harrison. He gave me a personality quiz well I was waiting for my mouth to numb and by the end of that I had forgotten I was even nervous to begin with. Dr. Harrison was such a nice man and he made me feel extremely comfortable. Its been 3 days now since my root canal and since Ive gotten it done Ive had zero pain. I definitely recommend him!

Trineshia Williams I love coming here for my dental needs. Jennifer always takes of me from start to finish with all my procedures. No one is better than Stella for my teeth cleaning. Both of them always make me feel welcome each time I walk through the door!!!!!!!!

Michal Calvin Caraway Today received some cosmetic and regular dental work. Cosmetic wasnt requested however Dentist chair is his area of expertise. Give him statistics and numbers in comparison to his work and see what works!! #Fist appointment was great did a deep cleaning with no novacaine and no complaints on my part. The second appointment was rescheduled and Im unsure as to why my lips are experiencing swelling and excessive sores. That wasnt an issue during X-rays... why during fillings? I rather have people wash hands with soap and hot water if ya dont have Clean Nitriles. # Scared ya might cut your hand get a Robot.

Gizelda Cavalcanti I had the privilege to be at Paiva Dentistry for my cleaning, where the hygienist, Sara, took great care of me. Dr. H saw me and told me what I need, he is such a nice doctor and heard all my questions. I highly recommed to go over there, they have a high-quality dental service and take good care of their patients.

Now that my daughter is the same age and we are searching for an orthodontist for her, I am really wishing we werent 6 hours away so that she could receive the same great treatment from Dr. Hanson and his staff!

They always greet you with a smile and make it easy to get an appointment. I highly recommend him to everyone.;)

NJ Sutliff I was referred to Dr. Hanson from a friend, when my son was a young teenager and needed orthodontic treatment. We felt relaxed and welcomed by both Dr. Hanson and his warm professional staff. My sons treatment went well and we both are extremely happy with the results. I would definately recommend Dr. Hanson and his fine staff for anyones orthodontic needs.

Kristin Beavers Dr. Murray and his staff are awesome. I’m someone that gets nervous at the dentist and my last dentist was very unkind to me for it. Dr. Murray’s bedside manner put me at ease and has made the whole experience of getting my teeth fixed more comfortable. I’ve already recommended him to my family.

Jay Byrd Best people. Extremely nice and helpful with any questions I had before and after my exam. Great service, in and out without feeling like they rushed me through their services. Very pleased and will be returning for future care. Also will be giving recommendations for their office. Thanks Doc

Terri Green I had a great experience with absolute dental care. I was very nervous about getting a shot to have my dental work done and Dr. Al-Nahhas did a great job of getting me numb before he gave me the big shot I only felt a small pinch. He saved my tooth and it feels a lot better. Will definitely recommend to my friends.
5 /5
Christopher Berry First off I am glad others had a great experience here, but after being a patient over a year and multiple visits I have found a better dentist for me. In my experiences Dr. Al-Nahhas was rushed and always rude. I had to ask multiple times for him to explain to me what he was doing and why. His demeanor in his explanations and actions were very condescending. not only to me (the patient), but to his staff as well. After moving to a new general dentist I found that my insurance elsewhere cover my fillings 100% while Absolute Dental quoted me a costly price per filling. While his work seems good, I am much more pleased with the dental quality and customer care elsewhere.
1 /5
Pat Pitts I found Dr Al to be very personable and professional. He took great interest in my dental emergency and handle it very much to my satisfaction. I was a Dental assistant for 25 years and I feel I am very qualified to make this observation. Today i had my Prophy and exam and I must say Emily the Hygenist was also terrific ! It has been a few years since I retired and have had occasion to use more than one Hygienist for my checkups, this visit restored my faith that some of them are still very committed to providing the highest level of care. She surpassed my expections I am relatively new to Panama City and I am happy to say I found my new Dentist and staff. I highly recommend Absolute Dental

The exam was painless as was the xray taken by one of the amazing hygienists, Colleen. The office is very welcoming and everyone is very, very nice!! I would recommend Dr Morse to anyone!!!

Ian Bradford I’ve been going here for several years now and Dr. Morse as absolutely awesome! When I first started going to him I had neglected my oral hygiene for years and had lots of problems. We have been working at getting my mouth back on track. He has done a wisdom tooth extraction and fillings as well as regular cleaning and exams. I have to be honest I have always had anxiety about dental work but he makes is simple and pain free. The last filling I got is so good that I can’t even tell it’s a filling when I look in the mirror. He will definitely be my dentist until he retires!

Leah Blocker Wonderful experience! I took my son to see where all his permanent front teeth were? Come to find out he had a lot of impacted teeth that were obstructing the permanent teeth from moving down. The office staff was very accommodating. The dentists son is a dental surgeon whos office is right across the street. I was walked across the street they checked my son in, and made sure the situation was taking care of. This saved me from making another trip from Pensacola. His son Eric and his staff were also excellent! Seeing 2 dentists (one without an appt) x-rays, 2 examinations all within about an hour 1/2. Very pleased and would recommend either of these dentists!

Robert Nixon Dr. Eric Claussen did a wonderful Surgical extraction of all 22 of my teeth in preparation for dentures. Not an easy job, but he pulled it off perfectly. Highly recommend!

David Akins Let me start with I am not a fan of going to the Dentist. Jenna Pascoli though is the dentist that has made me more comfortable than any other dentist. I have been to her twice now, once for routine cleaning and yesterday for a repair on a chipped tooth. I was liberally in and out of there in 30 minutes. She did not take advantage of my situation and just did what needed to be done. Finally a dentist that I like, can trust and doesnt try to bleed you out of every $$$ they can. BTW, they are in the refurbished office, post hurricane. Very very nice. 2620 Jenks, Panama City

Blake Palmer Having asked if my procedure would be covered a week before my appointment I was told they would check. A few moments later I was told it was covered. Unfortunately after driving 40 minutes I was told sorry it’s not covered. This is not the first time we have had issues with their lack of correct information which is why I checked, unfortunately once again totally unreliable. Time for a new dentist

Katherine Arnall Great experience! My cleaning was done quickly and efficiently (including first time check-in, x-rays, cleaning, and exam, my visit was less than 45 minutes). The staff was very friendly, and they made everything really easy, including scheduling. I would definitely recommend this practice to anyone looking for a dentist in the area!
