Charles A. Doring, DDS, MAGD
"I have been going to Dr. Doring for more than 26 years.
He also sees my husband and both my kids. He quite literally has seen them grow up in his chair (they are 22 and 19) He has remained current with the times on all the latest technologies in dentistry while maintaining his old school, keep the patient calm—personable demeanor. Not only is he a great dentist but the staff that supports him are phenomenal. When I walk in for my 6month checkups, I am greeted by name and with a how is the family doing? If you are in need of a dentist—I highly recommend you give him a call."
