Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Horrible doctor and person
Damaged my wife's nerve while tooth extraction.She still hasn't recovered sensation or taste on one side of tongue. In a follow-up visit he yanked her tongue out causing massive pain and said something to the effect of 'I thought you liked that last time'. Avoid strongly.

Outstanding dentist. I had a wisdom tooth removed by Dr Slaughter and I can honestly say I've had cleanings that were more uncomfortable (and I was awake the whole time). Practically a painless experience and the whole procedure took less than 10 minutes. I would definitely recommend him to friends or family.

I chose Dr Slaughter to care for my daughters when they needed their wisdom teeth removed. I'm a general dentist and certainly had many choices of oral surgeons. I chose Joe Slaughter because of his great reputation in the dental community, his experience and advanced training, and his amazing team. His office was certainly not the closest, but I felt he was the best to take care of my daughters. They had a 100% comfortable experience and I do recommend this office to everyone!

I had my wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Slaughter and developed an infection which was misdiagnosed. I was told it was a muscle spasm. A month later, I was admitted to the hospital with 6 abscesses and had to have numerous surgeries and 2 pieces of my jaw bone removed. I was suffering from septic shock because the infection had gone into my blood stream. I would never recommend this doctor to anyone.
