PATIENT REVIEWS

The office of Dr. John Wood is truly a dental office that is staffed by professionals who really care about the patient’s needs and comfort. I witnessed this first hand as a scared, nervous patient who hadn’t been to the dentist in years. I was extremely impressed with Dr. Wood’s professionalism, knowledge of the field and he is very personable, which made me feel very comfortable. The office is equipped with the latest technology in software and digital radiography. Dr. Wood takes pride in fully informing and educating me of my dental needs. I actually can say that I have enjoyed my dentist visits and I would refer my family and friends in a heartbeat!

Friendly, proactive and accommodating best describes John G Wood DDS. We have gone to 3 other dentists since coming to Arizona and experienced problems with all of them. Then we found John Wood and our searching is over. They care about you and work to plan the best individualized program available. Diane cleaned my teeth without pain and recommended preventive home care with written instructions. You can’t go wrong with John Wood, DDS.

As dentists go I’m not really fond of them I’ve had some bad experiences in the past but I’ve been to Jonh G. Woods dentistry three times already and I have not had one bad experience. I’ve had extensive work done and his staff is so nice. He’s reasonable. I was made to feel comfortable right from the start. So I highly recommend Dr. Wood his lovely assistant Jennifer and the rest of his staff. As dental experiences go Dr Wood and his staff is the way to go.

Like most people, I am not a fan of visiting the dentist, especially for what I assumed would be an extraction of a molar (or worse).  But after waking up at 2:30am one morning because of an agonizing pain, I knew I had to visit the dreaded dentist. Dr. Woods office was a two minute drive from my house, was open at 7:00am, and more importantly, had wonderful reviews from other patients.  I called and spoke with Lisa who was so kind to me, she said that I could be seen that very day at 2:30.  I asked her to let me know if anything sooner opened up in the meantime.  She then told me to come in at 8:00am to get the paperwork and x-rays out of the way, that way we could just immediately begin the work in the afternoon.  I happily accepted that suggestion!  While there, after the x-rays, Dr. Woods numbed the area up with a long-lasting shot so I could make it through the day until he could work on the tooth.  They were able to bump me up to 2:00pm, which was also great, the sooner the better.  I had to had a root canal on my back molar (which has three nerves…UGH!), but other than a few short pains, the procedure was nowhere near as bad as I thought it’d be.  The whole time everyone helped to calm me down because of how nervous and distraught I was, which made the whole process so much easier.  I still need to go back in one week to complete the procedure, but I am not afraid, thanks to the kind and caring staff and Dr. Woods concern for my pain.  I have already referred two friends to Dr. Woods office and I will continue to refer anyone that needs a dentist.

Had my first visit with Dr Wood’s office and I was impressed. Everyone, from the office personnel, to his office assistant, and of course Dr Wood himself, showed professionalism, expert knowledge, & courtesy. I was also impressed with how comprehensive his exam was. I’m 66 years old and have never had such a thorough Dental exam! Highly recommended!

I have been to many dentists and I must say that I am so very impressed with Dr. Wood. He is kind, gentle, caring and thorough. I had to have my tooth extracted and will need to have an implant done. He has helped me in getting this set up. I was also incredibly impressed that the night I had the tooth extracted he HIMSELF, called to make sure I was doing okay! I was unable to answer the call but I felt so honored that he would take the time to check up on me. He also offered me a direct line to get a hold of him if I were to have any issues. The customer service of Mary and Jill is spectacular, they are wonderfully sweet ladies to work with and I enjoy talking with them. The hygienist (unfortunately I cannot remember her name) was sweet, wonderful and so caring. The assistant (whose name I have also forgotten) for my extraction was also just amazing. I was quite anxious and even though I had the laughing gas I expected to feel some pain (I did not but the expectation was there…sounds etc.). She knew just how to calm my nerves and help me to relax. I am so incredibly impressed with this office and am so glad I followed through on the referral I received from a friend. You cannot go wrong with Dr. Wood!

Dr. Wood has been my dentist for over 14 years. Very professional, highly skilled and always responsive to questions and emergencies. Kathy has been my hygienist since I started visiting Dr. Wood, and I hope she never retires! The office staff is congenial and very accommodating, especially helpful when rescheduling is necessary.

My wife and I have had Dr. John Wood and his staff provide our dental care for over 18 years. The reasons we use Dr Wood are simple: 1. He and his staff are highly professional. He utilizes the newest techniques and his office is equipped with the latest dental tools and equipment. 2. He is patient, listens to your needs and concerns, and provides the best treatment we have found anywhere. 3. His fees are reasonable. 4. We have never, ever had a bad experience with Dr. Wood. Simply stated — he is the best.

My family has been seeing Dr. Woods for several years now. We were referred to his office by my brother-in-law and his family. I’ve since referred several people. Everyone at the office is kind, professional, caring & I could go on and on. Last year I decided on Invisalign & Dr. Ewell has been AMAZING!  She is knowledgeable in Invisalign & her expertise shined through during my last 15 months with the product. I’ve had wonderful results and my teeth look beautiful!  She is sweet, very gentle & informed me with each step/phase. I highly recommend Dr. Woods & Dr. Ewell!

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Wood and his staff since 2001. I drive across town to see them because I feel they are a top-notch dental group. I’m also a bit of a “problem” patient as I get anxious at the dentist but Dr. Wood and his team are wonderful and patient with me. And he’s especially considerate that I am self-employed and have no dental insurance so he offers a cash plan and really makes a point to identify what is needed immediately and what can wait. I highly recommend Dr. Wood and his team for all your dental care needs.

Doctor Woods is wonderful, friendly, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable. You will never want another dentist but if you’re in the unfortunate situation where you need one, they will never live up to the expectations you gained from Dr. Woods. The front office is amazing as well. Appointments always run on time thanks to the courteous front staff. They’re always polite which is more than you can say for many medical facilities. They handle billing with care, are more than willing to work with your schedule and needs, and send reminders for long-standing appointments with plenty of notification time. From top to bottom, this is one of the best facilities all around. It’s a pleasure to do business here.

Coming up on age 62 – I’ve been all over the world to include 25 years with the US Army.  I’d say after being assigned in 10 different major cities and retired almost 20 years gives me a little credibility when I make the following claim.  What I have found over the years is that a dentist office gets half of everything done right.  The dentist is great but the staff not so much and Vs versa.  For the first time – I have finally found a Dentist office that performs amazingly from front to back. My wife and I have been with Dr Wood’s practice for almost 2 years and every single visit is better than the last.

Going to the dentist can be scary sometimes, and I have had past experiences I wouldn’t want to repeat.  But since going to Dr Wood, I have nothing but excellent reviews.  His office is always friendly and helpful; and his team is highly skilled.  Dr. Wood is the reason why.  He leads his staff by setting high standards of care.  I just finished the first stage of getting a crown and it was painless.  Both Dr Wood and his assistant worked like a finely tuned instrument, efficiently completing the procedure while ensuring my comfort.  I have had previous work by him and it is consistently the same high quality of treatment.  I hope he doesn’t plan on retiring any time soon.  I don’t think there is another dentist or office that I have found as trustworthy, caring, or professional.

Dr. Wood is an amazing dentist. He is friendly, knowledgeable and cares about his patients. He never makes me feel rushed when I am asking questions and he makes me feel at ease in the chair. I have never felt pushed into making any hasty decisions on major dental work. His staff is just amazing as well. Everyone is friendly and they greet you by name. When they gave me a referral for an orthodontist, they provided me with all information that I needed and also offered to send any information over to save me time. Liz, the dental hygienist, has always done my cleanings and she is such a genuinely sweet person. She always takes her time and I feel great when she has completed the cleaning. The exam rooms and front office are clean and modern. I feel very relaxed when I am in the office, either waiting or sitting in the chair. All machinery is never outdated or worn. I tell everyone how great Dr. Wood and his staff are all the time!.

I am really impressed with the entire office staff.  Dr. Wood is incredibly personable. Dr. Ewell was the Dr who treated me and she is extremely thorough.  Diane is the best hygienist I have ever had. So much so that I scheduled my next appointment on the only day of the week that she works at this office. Kris (office manager) is amazing and is the reason that I initially selected this office when I stopped in and was searching for a new dentist.

Dr. Wood is an excellent, compassionate person and a great dentist. Exceptionally nice, up-to-date office and very friendly staff. My dental needs have been well taken care of at this office and I would recommend Dr. Wood and his staff to anyone!

I had a very awesome experience at Dr. Wood and Dr. Ewell’s office. As soon as you walk in the door the staff is very welcoming and sweet and upon entering everyone acknowledged that I was there for my appointment I was seen by Dr. Ewell she was very thorough with her examination she explained every step she was taking so I knew exactly what was going on. Marlin her assistant was great and was very gentle and quick while taking my x-rays. After my examination and x-rays I had my cleaning with the hygienist Diane. Diane was very welcoming again just like the rest of the staff she explained what she would be doing. Diane was also very gentle the entire time. Overall my experience at Dr.Wood and Dr. Ewell’s office was outstanding and I would highly recommend this office to everyone.

We had our first appointment today and everyone at this office was amazing. Dr. Wood took the time to explain to my husband exactly what was going on with his teeth and his recommendations. The hygienists and office staff were friendly and super helpful. Dr. Ewell was so kind and had a lot of great recommendations. Thank you!!

I was so scared and nervous going to see a Dentist, I hadn’t been to a Dentist in years and I was also embarrassed to boot. Dr. Woods office staff were so kind and understanding. As a first time patient I had a quick questionnaire to fill out and then was taken right back to an exam room. They were so thouhough and kind with my exam and my fears.. Jen who did my exray’s and helped Dr. Craine with my exam was simply Amazining as was the Dentist. I have never had such a great experience at a Dentist visit in my life. I went in feeling hopeless and afraid and left full of hope and all fear easily went away. The cost was also pretty amazing, much lower than othe visits and procedures i have had at others denists in the past. I look forward with much hope and joy to getting my teeth in tip top shape. I have many cavities, need a cleaning and a root canal but it’s affordable and I can’t wait to get started. I highly recomemd Dr. Woods Dental practice to anyone especially those who are afraid or embarassed. They truly build you up and have a way about them to help you feel calm and hopeful. Paula S.

My husband and I have had Dr. Wood as our dentist for many years. My husband is not a great patient, the first visit he had with Dr. Wood all they did was talk. After that he felt much more comfortable and did not worry about going for his appointments. All of the staff are very knowledgeable and you can tell that they enjoy their jobs. I have recommended Dr. Wood’s practice to many of my friends and relatives. Thank you for being great people! Karen Barnes.

In one word…QUALITY!! Quality workmanship… Quality care… Quality service… I have been a patient of Dr. Wood and his dental team for many years. I have dry mouth, so I am at high risk for cavities. I have had a lot of quality work in my mouth due to my medical condition. But besides the dental work, Dr. Wood and his team have helped me learn how to best manage my condition to prevent further decay and have a healthy mouth. In the past I had a great fear of going to the dentist…that is definitely no longer the case!!  I can only say good things about my experiences! I feel blessed to have this dental team on my list of health providers!!

Let’s start at the top… 1) They have great reviews… and a LOT of them. That speaks for itself. 2) I needed a new dentist. They hooked me up with Elizabeth Ewell. Simply put… she ROCKS! 3) The front office… on it! The have everything running perfectly. They work WITH you. 4) Just had my teeth “deep cleaned.” Not my first rodeo in teeth cleaning but Diane is the best I ever had. AWESOME job! The dentist office is never fun… but this place gets you in, takes care of business, makes you feel comfortable, and charge fair rates. Eazy peazy lemon squeezy!

I love Dr. Wood’s office! The staff is fantastic; everyone is so patient and kind. Dr. Wood is very knowledgeable; I trust him and his work. They are very thorough and thoughtful. I have been a patient for over two years and have nothing but great things to say! Scheduling is easy and my experience with the office has been awesome.

Leaving my dentist back home of over 18 years made me VERY nervous.  Since I’m new to the area I came to trusty Yelp to help me find someone.  I called & the lady on the other end of the phone was so unbelievably sweet & answered all of my questions, she got me in within 2 days.  Upon my arrival I was greeted with such a warm welcome from all of the staff.  I was taken back & seen promptly. Dr. Wood was so friendly & warm & everyone helped with my uneasiness. They talked me thru every step & when I came back 2 weeks later for my filling the ladies at the front remembered me & greeted me with the same friendly, warm demeanor as before. I was very nervous & actually shaking but Dr. Wood & his staff once again calmed my nerves & made me feel at ease. I’ve only been here twice but the staff has all made me feel like I’m a long time patient! I even received a letter with a hand-written note from Dr. Wood thanking me for becoming his patient.  I’ll be recommending them to EVERYONE!.

After my scheduled appointment with Dr. Wood today, I was reminded of what an awesome team Dr. Wood and his staff make.  Linda Lee is an experienced and gentle hygienist who is very considerate of her patient’s needs. Michelle and Chris in the front office always go out of their way to make me feel comfortable and answer any questions I may have.  Chris has spent a considerable amount of time addressing insurance concerns I had.  And then there is Dr. Wood . . . I can tell he is passionate about dentistry and has a deep commitment to taking care of his patients.  He is knowledgeable, professional, thorough in his exams and diagnoses, courteous, and friendly.  I would highly recommend Dr. Wood to anyone, especially those who are nervous about going to a dentist.

I really don’t think dental care good get any better. Have been going to Dr. Wood for may years. I have never had to be concerned about my dental needs being taken care of.  Never treated with a negative attitude, plus they listen and respond if there is a need for something. Quality work.  I have a close friend who frequents her dentist, (whom she really likes) because of crowns loosening or falling out.  Never has happened to me. And, his new associate is a gem. Quality work.

I had an extremely professional and delightful experience.  Usually dental visits can be filled with anxiety however, all of the office staff was extremely kind and helpful.  My favorite part was meeting the very down-to-earth Dr. John Wood. As I was explaining my new tmj issues due to much added stress from my mom recently passing away, he told me about his story and the pain he endured as well from losing his mom as well.  I felt an instant connection and that was very kind of him to open up and try to console me during my time of grief.  I highly recommend this office for all of your dental needs.  Thank you to everyone who helped me this morning.

Let me preface this review with this simple statement: I HATE going to the dentist. I don’t mean I dislike it or it is unpleasant for me. I mean I really really HATE going to the dentist. I grew up with military dentists and if you grew up going to them you understand. Dr. Wood is very patient and considerate with people like me. He explains what he is doing and why. He also gives me laughing gas right after he finishes talking about what we are doing for that visit. That stuff is wonderful and makes going to the dentist so much easier. I have to also say that I refer to my teeth as ‘the million dollar mouth’ because of the amount of dental work I have had and still need. Dr. Wood did my most recent, but not last, crown. I have a mouth full of crowns and am on my second or third set for most of them so I have some experience with the procedure. The crown Dr. Wood put in is the best fitting, most natural looking crown I have. No gaps and the color is darn near a perfect match and I am not easy to match on color. It was also the least painless crown procedure I have ever had done and one of the most reasonably priced. Could I feel this way because of the gas? Maybe…..but I do think part of it was because of the Dr’s skill. The staff is wonderful, Jill and Mary at the front desk are friendly and caring. Kathy is the hygienist and does a great job. These women are great and I almost feel sorry for the Dr when they start teasing him. Almost but not quite. If you are looking for a good dentist in this area, take a few minutes and check out Dr. Wood. You will be glad you did.

I have trusted my daughters to the care of Dr. Wood their entire lives.  They are now 15 and 18 years old.  I cannot find words good enough to describe our experiences with him.  His staff, particularly his dental hygienist Mindy, was able to comfort my younger daughter from a very early age with serious dental anxiety to not only sit through regular dental examinations, but also recently through a few fillings.  She’s a “Special Needs” child, and the gentle encouragement of Dr. Wood’s staff instilled in her the confidence to sit through the surgery with minimal anesthesia.  She stayed awake the whole time in spite of the intimidating sounds of dental surgery.  I will be seeing Dr. Wood forever.

This past year we decided to start looking for a new dentist. I wasn’t happy with the service my current dentist was providing, and the drive to their office was really out of the way. I found Dr. Wood and scheduled an appointment for my sons and I. The service that Dr. Wood and his staff provided is exactly what I was looking for in a dentist. Jill who works in the front office is very sweet and my boys love going to Dr. Wood. I’m really glad that we’ve found Dr. Wood’s office and happy to say that he will be our dentist from now on.

Dr. Wood and Dr. Ewell were amazing. Dr. Ewell performed the initial exam and explained things clearly and made areas that were giving me problems the highest priority over expensive gum treatments and cleanings that would max out my insurance. Dr. Wood performed my root canal and he was phenomenal. I had one half second burst of pain near the end of the procedure when the anesthetic was wearing off and he immediately stopped and numbed me up more and checked to make sure I was comfortable. The front office staff is kind and helpful in regards to understanding your treatment plan and they all work out the best plan based on prioritizing problem areas as well as your budget. If you’re looking for a dentist in the area, I HIGHLY recommend their services. You won’t be disappointed.

It’s very obvious Dr. John Wood greatly enjoys being a dentist/educator and genuinely cares for the welling of his patients. Dr. Wood and his team provide only the highest quality service and dentistry within a warm, welcoming and friendly environment. I have seen many dentists in my life but Dr. Wood by far exceeds my expectations every time. From his calming bedside manner to the level of education I get regarding my dental needs truly makes a positive difference. The office makes a very impressive statement in appearance and location. The office equipment and technology is state-of-the-art .I always feel as if I’m getting the very highest care possible. I just want everyone to know that if you are in need of a 5 Star dentist you will find that with Dr. Wood and his wonderful team.

The most professional and down to earth staff I have ever experienced. They literally changed my life I came in with decades of neglect to a professional smile that looks so natural I can’t thank them enough. I wish I could post before and Afters.

This is the second time I have had Linda Lee the hygenist. She is amazingly sweet and thorough in her cleaning. Very supportive on home care ideas. The office is conveniently located and very clean. When you go there you feel very welcomed almost like family! Dr Wood went the extra mile with me today and even gave me a phone call to clarify a question I had while I was there.

We have all had need to find a new dentist and have worried about running into a quick buck dentist.  You know the type… all fillings should be replaced, everything needs to be fixed before it gets worse, unheard of treatments and procedures.  That is NOT Dr. Wood.  He is interested in whatever is best for the patient. No busy, busy, hurry, hurry atmosphere.  A feeling that the patient is important.  Very thorough exam.  His staff have been there forever; that in itself is telling. Senior citizen discount.

A WORD FROM YOUR DOCTOR
