I was so impressed with Dr. Oliver and his staff.  I visited him during COVID-19 Crisis – they only allowed one patient in at a time, everyone was being safe, wearing masks, and concerned about my safety.  The women that greeted me – was amazing, professional, nice, and helpful.  The dental assistant was delightful.  Best of All – Dr. Oliver was talented, knowledgable, and practical.  Plus, they had cool tech that helped me see my teeth and their health in ways that had not been presented to me in the past.  They seemed to be so focused on great care.  I am delighted to call them my new Dentist practice of choice.  Highly recommend.

My husband and I have been coming to this practice for over a year. Dr Jamie and his staff (including his therapy dogs) have created something special, with their superb care, excellent education, and all around warmth as good human beings. I’ve never encountered care like this in a dental practice and wish I had because they really make you feel at home and ease any worries you might have about coming to a dentist. We definitely wouldn’t want to go anywhere else and so glad we found this practice.

The best dentistry experience I’ve ever had. I honestly can’t think of anything I would change about my appointment. I will be back every six months, and I will recommend Dr. James Oliver’s practice to all my RVA friends and family. Service: I scheduled my appointment online for the next day, and Melissa called the next morning to confirm the appointment, confirm my insurance, and gave me the option to fill out the pre-appointment paperwork online. I waited for less than 5 minutes before the dental assistant (sorry, I forgot your name!) brought me back. The x-ray, imaging, and other dental tools they used were all top-notch and definitely aided the team to deliver a more thorough and efficient dental service. Dr. James Oliver used a special camera to photograph each one of my teeth. He used these images, along with the x-rays that the dental assistant took, to explain the health/state of each one of my teeth. Dr. Oliver also performed a quick manual examination of the lymph nodes in the areas around my mouth (face/neck), which I have never had another dentist do. I feel very confident that my oral/dental health has been very well-assessed. Place: The office building itself is in a nice area, easy to find, and has plenty of parking. The waiting room, restroom, and patient rooms were all very clean and cozy. The patient room had two television screens: one above the dental chair for me to watch while being examined/worked on and another on the wall for the doctor and dental assistants to use to view images/records of my teeth. People: Melissa, the dental assistant at the front desk was very nice and helpful. She made the logistics (paperwork, insurance, payment, arrival time) of my appointment go very smoothly. The second dental assistant that brought me back to take my x-rays was also nice and performed her job very well. Dr. James Oliver is a master of his craft, and I can tell he is passionate about his job. He was very personable and kind, and he made sure I was comfortable the whole time and that I understood everything he was doing. Last but not least, Dr. Oliver’s dog Ashby was there, and she was super cute and showed me some of her toys. 10/10 would recommend.

I had a TERRIBLE experience at my last dentist. so I was skeptical going anywhere… But I was talking to the dental hygienist at my daughters last appointment and asked for her recommendation as I was nervously seeking a new dentist. She told me to go visit Dr. Oliver. I’m so glad I did! I had been suffering with a lot of sensitivity needlessly, which he was able to remedy in just one visit. I didn’t realize how very much I missed being able to drink a nice cold glass of water on a warm day… but I digress. Evolve is great. The staff is so friendly. It’s a very clean and comfortable office, convenient location, great with kids and grown ups- They even have the sweetest therapy dog available!!! Highly recommend!!!

I absolutely love being a patient of Dr. Oliver and the Evolve Practice. Since day one my experience has been a pleasure. The Receptionist and Dental Assistant are wonderful. Dr. Oliver is extremely thorough and is exceptional at what he does. My ortho journey had a lot of ups and downs but finished strong with the great restoration work that I had done here. Thank you Dr. Oliver & Team!

I have never had so much fun and ease at the dentist. The staff is friendly, caring, and well trained. Dr. Oliver empowered me with information about my teeth and let me know the options I could choose from, without any pressure (which is very important to me). I always feel honored as a human being, and not just a patient, when I’m there. Payment options are available for those without insurance, like me. The chairs are super comfy, netflix is available during services, and I feel so good about the work that has been done to heal my issues. I would recommend Evolve Dental Care to anyone! They are awesome!

Dr. Oliver and his team were amazing! I’m definitely not a stranger to the dentist and this by far was the best experience I’ve ever had. I love how thorough he is from just my cleaning to my treatment plan. They were very compassionate and actually made me look forward to going in. Definitely didn’t hurt being able to watch my favorite show while I was in there.

Dr. Oliver and his staff are the BEST!! If you are looking for a dentist – he is your guy! The office is warm and comfortable, you feel like family from the moment you walk in the door. I have wanted cosmetic dental work for years but always found a reason to put it off until I met Dr. Oliver. I found I had stopped smiling, but since having dental work at Evolve I cannot stop smiling. I continue to get compliments. Also, pricing is extremely reasonable which is always a huge plus!

Dr. Oliver was great. I learned more about my teeth and the cleaning process in an hour with him than I had in the entirety of my dental experiences. The office is awesome and you can even watch TV while getting your teeth cleaned! I usually hate the dentist but I have already scheduled my next appointment and can’t wait to go back. Highly recommend.

Such a welcoming experience as a first time patient. Even before my visit, Melissa helped me get my insurance straightened out so everything went smoothly once arriving for my appointment. The staff and especially Dr. Oliver were all so warm and friendly. And meeting Ashby their in-office therapy dog was the icing on the cake. Will definitely be returning and referring others here. 🙂

Dr Oliver and his staff were great! Extremely friendly and professional staff. I usually dread having to go to the dentist, however my experience here was exceptional. I couldn’t believe how quickly I was seen and taken care of. I will absolutely be coming back to this practice for the years to come.

Evolve Dental Care shatters all expectations! Last Friday I fractured one of my wisdom teeth while eating lunch. After calling 6 other dentist offices (None of whom had physicians in office) Dr. Oliver’s office agreed to see me within an hour and pulled my tooth. Dr. Oliver was very kind and made pulling my tooth completely painless. I cannot recommend this dentist enough!

Been to see Dr. Oliver twice now, once for my routine 6 month cleaning and another to fill some cavities and to get a crown. His staff are extremely friendly and personable. His office is clean. I usually hate going to the dentist but he has made it as pleasant as possible with televisions on the ceilings above the chairs connected to Netflix. Dr. Oliver took every opportunity to make sure I was comfortable and provided me with the necessary information so I could make an educated decision about my treatment plan instead of solely relying on his judgement. I am very thankful that I finally found a dentist that will include me in the creation of my treatment plan.

I highly recommend Dr. Oliver and staff for a great dental experience. Dr. Oliver has great “bedside manner” or the equivalent for a dentist, was very knowledgeable and informative throughout the process. I had been seeing the same dentist for many years and I’m glad that I decided to see Dr. Oliver to help fix an issue with my tooth. Evolve Your Smile is a very modern office with details to keep you comfortable while on your visit, along with a tail wag from Ashby, the sweet therapy dog.

My experience with Dr. James Oliver and his staff was exceptional. They all were knowledgeable, friendly, and personable. I strongly recommend Evolve Dental Care. He took the time to review my X-rays with me and discussed options to keep my teeth their healthiest. If you are looking for a great dental team, look no further!

Dr. Oliver is truly an amazing dentist. It was not about collecting money from me, he actually cared for his patient and was emphatic. My tooth pain was causing me to have tension headaches and I was having some sleep issues. Dr. Oliver was able to explain where the pain was coming from and my treatment options with the pricing for each option. Which actually made me feel more comfortable because he wasnt trying to trap me in a 1 option only payment. Also his assistant is the bomb.com. the make an epic duo.
