Wonderful experience, staff was friendly and kind. Most importantly Dr. Gates was extremely knowledgeable about what my options are and gave me several options to choose from. She also found several issues that my previous dentist did not address and I had asked about when I was there last month. I felt like she was very thorough, patient, helpful and knowledgeable! I would definitely recommend her to my family and friends!

For thirty seven years Dr. Sherry A. Gates and her staff have taken care of me and my family. It has become a “family affair” visiting our dentist every six months. The care and attention we have received over the last 37 years have been second to none. Dr. Gates two hygienist Joy & Denise have been nothing short of wonderful! It is with regret and sadness that we are moving out of the area and will no longer utilize Dr. Gates professional services. I only hope that we can find half the dental professional we have enjoyed for over three decades in our new community.

Sherry was our family dentist from 1990 through 2005 when we moved out of state. When we returned to W. Tennessee in mid-2020, Sherry graciously took us back as patients. It was so comforting to go to her office, to pet the rabbit statuary by the door, and to hear Sherry's calm, pleasant voice again. We have unquestioned confidence in Sherry's clinical judgement and her technical skills. Her office has all of the latest high-tech equipment and is taking all of the proper COVID precautions. We are so pleased to be back in W. Tennessee, and with Dr. Gates.

As we’ve come to expect over the past 30+ years, Dr. Gates and staff provide us with excellent dental care! Having Joy clean our teeth yesterday was a such a good experience and we wanted to send out a big thank you to her. Even before COVID-19 it was apparent that the staff maintained strict sanitizing and cleanliness standards. But now, they go even further ensuring the safety of their patients. A special thanks to Vicki; who keeps the ship sailing!
