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.

Huge mistake!
Unprofessional staff (especially Danielle) and Dr Hudson took out the wrong teeth! Won’t admit his mistake and blamed it on the family! Don’t waste your time and money. A very costly mistake. Check out all his reviews!

What a waste of time
The doctor was rude, condescending, and lacked professionalism during my visit. Don't waste your time. Find another doctor. USELESS!

Dr. Hudson rebuilt the roof of my mouth after some trauma. He is an exceptional surgeon and no one would know looking into my mouth that the roof of my mouth had been repaired. I felt that he was very caring and hands-on, he helped me place the retainer he made for me after surgery and prior to surgery and molding thr retainer he had the dental on-call staff use dental wire to set my teeth temporarily so that they would not heal back misaligned-this shows he has great judgement and foresight in avoiding future complications or more extensive work by taking immediate action. I would recommend Dr. Hudson very highly to anyone and in fact I have used him since on occasion for minor dental surgeries to protect the previous surgical work.

Dr. Hudson needs to retire. He has no empathy or compassion for the patient, and is "too good" to speak to patients on the phone. I have NEVER had any type of dentist not allow me to speak when it was obvious I was trying to, but this is what Dr. Hudson did - just kept on working even though I was feeling extreme pain in my jaw. He also has a condescending manner and attacked my character. I would not recommend him to anyone, and really recommend he retire before he gets sued.

I had a serious accident that destroyed the majority of my teeth. I was in and out surgeries for 2 years. Dr. Hudson was incredible. I am so thankful every day that he was on my ER team when they airlifted me to Knoxville. He gave me back my confidence and my smile. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
