PATIENT REVIEWS

Dr Noah Shafer and his staff are very professional. Dr Shafer is relaxed, gentile, and detail oriented. He was able to see me in a moments notice. He made sure that I was never in pain, and checked in with me to insure that I was doing well after the dental procedure. I had 8 crowns a bridge and an extraction completed all in one session. Immediate results in one day. His work is second to none. He is highly educated and made sure that I was happy with his work before I left his office. He also told me stories while working on my teeth that were really funny. I felt very comfortable with him and his staff and highly recommend his practice.

Dr Shafer and staff are amazing. My name is Marcus Roberts and I have never been fond of the dentist since a child. This is the first time in my life I have found a dentist who is extremely careful and professional and just as much careful. He takes his time to explain each procedure with expertise and precise instructions. I have now been a client for about 3 years and even I was to move out of town for work I would indeed fly back to go back to his offices. I have found a dentist for life. He is very knowledgable and is more about the care of his patients then the amount of money he can make off of you. I myself work in business and can easily tell the difference when someone monetizes their relationship with you based off client and services. I have never felt that way about him or his staff as they always go the extra mile to assist with whatever issue I may have.

I guess no one can say they actually enjoy and look forward to a dental visit… BUT.. I can say that Dr Shaffer and his staff make the visit as enjoyable as possible… I always suggest to others SouthGrove Dental.. they are always professional yet friendly…. I have no plans on going anywhere elsr!!

The best experience at the dentist I’ve ever had. Dr. Shafer is authentic, genuine, incredibly personable and skilled. He took such good care of my four year old when he had to get extensive work done, that my child still loves to go to the dentist!  I am so very glad I have found them and will have all five of my children see him regularly.

Really great experience overall. The receptionist was curt, maybe a little snide, but the hygienist Kayla and Dr. Noah went above and beyond to make me comfortable. Both Kayla and Dr. Noah were personable, kind, knowledgeable, and efficient. Dr. Noah even remembered me from the last time I came in-five years ago-which is a sign, to me, of someone who cares for his clients. I let them know I have nerves about the dentist, so they walked me through every step before doing anything and checked in with me frequently during the cleaning. Scheduling my appointment was simple, and they were flexible with fitting me in where a cancellation had occurred which was helpful! I’d give the experience a 10/10 and just assume the receptionist was having an off day. 🙂

My daughter (3yrs old) and I both saw Dr. Schaffer with back to back appointments, which was super convenient. Also, I didn’t have to miss work because of his late evening options. Dr. Schaffer was very gentle and patient with my toddler. This was her first visit to the dentist, I was pleased with the entire experience. Dr. Schaffer provided us his feedback on her treatment, gave us multiple options, answered all of our questions in detail, and recommendations for further treatment for our daughter. I highly recommend Dr. Schaffer!!!

I don’t write too many reviews but I had to let my community know that South Grove Dental is a great place to go for your local dentist. The staff is friendly and courteous. Dr. Scafer is friendly, knowledgeable and does not upsell you in anything. I trust them and they do excellent work

We are so pleased with South Grove. They have seemed to hire new receptionists who are very friendly, professional, and efficient. The hygienists do a fantastic job making you feel comfortable. Dr. Noah is great with kids, professional, and provides clear and accurate descriptions of your dental status and needs.

Was a great experience, the people were very nice and polite .. I have had bad experiences. This was good people, they explained everything and make me feel at home.kayla Griggs was very helpful and if you know anyone needing work done , give them a call. Probably saved my life.had to get 9 teeth, removed, because Pace maker, don’t

I had a great experience at Dr. Shafer’s office. From the moment I walked in the staff was attentive and friendly. Dr. Shafer was kind and thoughtful with his treatment plan Kayla was fabulous during my cleaning, Invisalign and I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation! They definitely go the extra mile!

Dr. Shafer is always great! Very social and has a way of making you feel completely comfortable at a place no one really likes to visit. (The dentist). He’s always very consistent, and explains everything so you can understand what, as well as why he’s doing it. He’s kinda funny too! Great guy! I highly recommend!

I personally love South Grove! I was new to Nashville and didn’t know anyone when I happened to find South Grove. My teeth and I have had quite the journey and the SG team make me feel loved, seen, normal, and work so patiently with me. Dr Shafer always remembers me and goes out of his way to make sure I know what’s going on and understand every step that is taking place. They have also worked with me when I didn’t have to finances to do everything at once and didn’t make me feel guilty. I’m not saying everything is perfect, it’s quite the drive from my house HOWEVER…. I am willing to drive bc of how they make me feel. Keep it guys!!

I have had problems with my teeth and been to many dentists in my life and I am 72. Without a doubt Dr. Shafer and his fabulous staff have afforded me with the best dental experience I’ve ever had. Novocain injections were almost painless and spot on…not like some of the other dentist I have been to who injected me 3 or 4 times and still didn’t hit the right tooth. If you want a dentist that is knowledgeable, compassionate and truly cares about you, then Dr. Noah Shafer is your man.

I could go on and on about how wonderful South Grove Family Dentistry is! I needed a local dentist and I called here and they were able to get me in immediately. The team is exceptional! Very friendly, accommodating, and caring. I go for 6 month teeth cleanings and Dr. Shafer takes the time to conduct the cleaning and asks how the teeth are doing. I HIGHLY recommend this practice! So happy I found such a great dentist! Thank you South Grove Family Dentistry for going above and beyond!

Literally the best dental experience I have ever had. Dr. Shaffer is the best!! I had to get an extraction, and cavities filled in both sides of my mouth in one day!! Dr. Shaffer was very attentive, paid attention to my needs and made me feel soooo comfortable. If you need a new doctor and he is in your network you have definitely hit the jack pot! His hours of operation are great as well if you work during the week!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about South Grove. We are a military family and move around a lot. My first appointment there was for our middle son. He had a tooth that was bothering him. Brand new patient, first time calling and the staff got him in right away that same day and fixed him up. He came out smiling. The staff and more specifically Aileen at South Grove went above and beyond to get our oldest son’s records from out of state and continue his care. Dr. Shafer is so incredibly nice. The dental assistants and hygienists are welcoming, gentle, and kind. This is an amazing Family Dental Office. Thank you and keep up the great work!

My family and I have been going to see Dr. Schaefer for a few years now. We started seeing him after having a few negative encounters with other dentist. Finding him and his staff has restored my faith and hope in dentistry. Dr. Schaefer’s honesty, professionalism, and expertise is hard to find and we are indeed blessed that we found him.

Love Dr. Shafer and his staff! We were new to the Nashville area and found South Grove Family Dentistry, we loved them and we’ve been with them going on four years now. My 3 girls actually look forward to going to the dentist :-0 They are so friendly and so good with the kiddos! My husband has had some more extensive work done and loves going there. We will be with them for as long as we stay in Nashville and I would recommend to any family adults and children!

As a new resident of Tn, Dr Shafer came highly recommended by friends and family. This past weekend I had an emergency happen with a crown months before my scheduled new patient cleaning and the South Grove staff got me in first thing this morning for a very fast and efficient visit. I highly recommend Dr Shafer and his staff for your dental care.

It’s not that I dislike any of the other dentists I’ve gone to, but by comparison, I really love the people at South Grove. They were able to get me in quickly, explained everything that was going to happen which really calmed my anxiety, AND they gave me a great price. I’ve never had to wait more than 5 minutes to be seen and honestly, it’s just a very comfortable atmosphere. It was a conversation, not a lecture. No floss-shaming!

It’s always a pleasure to visit Dr Shafer and his staff. Only being in Nashville a year and a half, it wasn’t easy to start over with a new dental provider. All are pleasant, professional and have your best interest in mind. The office is clean neat, and aesthetically nice. Dr Shafer is kind, gentle and confident in the work he provides. There is no pressure and includes the patient in the treatment plan. I would highly recommend!

I don’t write reviews because they’re hard to believe. My experience today was fantastic! Carla did an outstanding job cleaning and inspecting my entire mouth. Dr. Shafer was extremely professional and explained a few things they found wrong. I haven’t been to the dentist in several years but I’ll be going back routinely. Thank you for the great service!

The staff is super friendly and accommodating. I called at 9:15 and got my 11yo son in at 10am with a loose sore baby tooth that needed to be pulled. They fixed him up and we were home by 10:45am. He said it didn’t even hurt. The Dr. came out to introduce himself and explain everything. I cannot thank them enough for how quickly and kindly they treated us as new patients.

I have been going to Dr. Shafer for five years. I find him to believe me one of the most compassionate, caring and professional dentists I have ever been to, and I have been to quite a few. He always takes the time to discuss the issue any objective we are trying to accomplish. He gives me plenty of options and goes the extra mile to stay within my financial means. His staff is always very polite and courteous too.

Visited South Grove Dentistry for the first time today. My experience with Dr Schafer and his staff was a pleasant one. Dr Schafer took the time to explain the procedures as well as all questions and concerns I had. I never had a dentist stop and actually take his time before. My previous experiences with other dentists were no good which is why I haven’t been back to a dental office in 3 years!  I plan on visiting South Grove again! I will be going back tomorrow to have my teeth bleached. They’re having a sale right now $99 per session!! I’ve always wanted to do this and I won’t waste this opportunity! Overall this guys exceeded my expectations. I’m a happy patient 🙂

What I really like is that they have very affordable prices on in Invisalign. They were about 40% less than the orthodontist I went to. They also do regular teeth cleaning and whitening. It’s a great one stop shop with good prices! You can also message the Facebook page if you need anything.

Being new to the area I was looking for a family dentist that can satisfy all my expectations. Well I definitely found it with this practice. Dr. Shafer & staff are excellent,professional,caring,& on point with everything. They did a number of procedures on my 7yr old who is always scared of any kind of doctor and he walked out very happy as well as I. I am definitely bring the rest of the family here & I’m really glad I chose this dental practice!!!

Love love love this place. The faculty is amazing and the doctor works with my busy schedule. I’m a out of town patient and rarely get to keep appointments but his staff always shows kindness and tries to squeeze me in even though they have a tight schedule. I’ve missed placed my braces and lost them so many times and they always rush ship them to me. I find found this jewel and Groupon and I have had no regrets!

This was one of the best experiences I’ve had in a dental office. Staff is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. First time I’ve truly been comfortable at the dentist. Answered all my questions and explained everything in terms I could understand. This was my first visit to South Grove and I have found the place I will continue to have my dental work done.

Had an awesome experience here. I try to take really great care of my teeth but life gets away from me and I ran late getting a cavity filled and my teeth cleaned. Everyone at this office was extremely nice and caring with me. I’m 39 weeks pregnant and wanted to get everything I could done before I’m twice as busy. They were so gentle and careful with me and made me feel very comfortable with what was going on given my situation. Dr. Shafer talked to me through everything he was doing so I felt good through the whole process. Dr. Shafer and his staff are stuck with my husband and I for life. So happy with my experience.

I have been going to Dr. Shafer for years now and every time I am amazed how I get in quickly, how personable he is, always in a consistent great mood, and the great service he always gives me. I feel spoiled and I would really miss his work and the service of the office if I ever moved away. You can’t find a good hearted dentist like this anymore even if you combed the state.

I was a waking dental disaster. From the first time I visited Dr. Schaeffer’s office I knew that this would be different. I now have a full smile and I was treated better than I could have ever asked. Even once I move from Tennessee I know that I will never see another dentist. This practice will always be worth the trip. For the person with anxiety, this is your place he is SO FUNNY! He also has movies to play so you can distract yourself 🙂

It unusual for someone to say that they had a wonderful dental experience so this has to be the exception!!! The dentist and the entire staff were friendly attentive and polite. Dr Shafer explained the procedure as he pulled my tooth and made sure I was comfortable. It was over quickly with minimal discomfort. I Highly recommend South Grove Family Dentistry!

If you have kiddos, take them here! The staff was super accommodating and friendly, and they went out of their way to make my four little boys feel welcome and comfortable. My 3yo was anxious (first time having a cleaning), but the hygienist (hi Kayla!) was SO GREAT about setting him at ease. Plus, Dr. Shafer is father to four boys – So awesome! We had a GREAT experience at South Grove. So thankful to have found them!

Best dental experience my wife and I have ever had. South Grove is a happy and positive place and Dr. Shaffer’s entire staff makes you feel cared for like family. Highly recommended!!! < A GLOWING UPDATE > My bridge work was recently completed and I HAVE TO give another shout out to the phenomenal staff at South Grove Dentistry. The fit is perfect and feels much more secure than I had imagined. Thank you again Dr. Schafer, Kayla, Donna & Cindy. You all give dentistry a great name! Ken & Jeannie Veltz
