Gillespie Dental Associates

The practice has always been very timely and efficient with my appointments. I've always felt. I've received the best dental care possible. The dentist are friendly and very informative. This practice is outside my network, but I continue to be a patient because I know the quality of care I'm receiving is well worth the money.

Best Dental experience. Staff is kind, courteous and attentive. Had to reschedule several times due to my own work needs, and the scheduling staff did a great job working with me over multiple scheduling attempts. I was able to be seen within days of rescheduling instead of weeks or months. You get what you pay for in life, Dr. Gillespie and his staff are worth every penny.

An old crown/inlay popped off, and I was able to get an appt for the next day. The response to my after hours message asking for an appt was very rapid.
The dentist was able to check on the tooth health & secure the crown again.

It likely helps that I have been a client for 5+ years and signed onto their dental plan.

Years ago, when I had an emergency on a holiday weekend they had a dentist come in in a Saturday. I knew this was the kind of service and coverage I wanted.

It is always so nice going in to Dr. Gillespie's office even if it is only for a cleaning. The staff there is always so warm and welcoming. Very thorough and very pleased with the results. I truly wish all Dental offices were more like mine then people would be seen by their Dentists more often.

I have nothing but praise for Dr. Peterson in the Gillespie dental group. The Gillespie group has been my practice for many years now. The entire practice is excellent, with caring and gentle hygienists, but Dr. Peterson is a real standout!

I am a bit of a nervous person when it comes to dental work. I’m not nervous with other things, and I often perform to crowds of hundreds of people, and I love that kind of energy. But I have a minor claustrophobia, so having somebody’s hands in my mouth is an issue, and I must close my eyes during a routine cleaning because forearms right in my face make me feel uncomfortable.

On top of this, I have a serious gag reflex, so when we have to take the x-rays they are so loving and sweet about it, and I’m sure my file says I’m a nervous. In addition, I’ve always had just really great teeth. Some people have unfortunate dental issues; I’ve been blessed with great teeth. I’ve never had braces. I’ve had just a handful of cavities in my entire life, and in fact, my first filling was not until I was in my late 30s. So because of this, the idea of any dental work is really scary to me, because it’s not part of my routine.

I will add that I’m obsessive about my teeth. I share this obsession with my friend, Bob, and we literally sit debate best toothpaste and floss and bring each other dental gifts from other countries. We are very teeth focused.

Add to all of this a little bit of white coat syndrome and I’m not exactly a delight at the dentist. But, at least I’m self-aware.

I recently had a sealant that needed to be taken out and replaced. And I scheduled the procedure and then worried about it for a week. Dr. Peterson showed up without her white coat on, because she knew the white coat made me nervous. And then she was gentle and sweet and explained everything and fixed it so quickly that I felt so very silly for having worried for so long.

Dr. Peterson holds that perfect combination of skill and warmth that make a great dental professional. I’ve recommended Dr. Peterson and the Gillespie group to my husband (who goes there) and now my daughter will be 21 and she will leave her pediatric dentist and come to Gillespie as well.I am confident she was receive sterling treatment. I also recommend Dr Peterson to friends any time they ask, “do you like your dentist?“ They get a real earful of how much I like Dr. Peterson and all of the hygienists.

Bravo Dr. Peterson!

Highly recommended!
The team at Gillespie Dental Associates are awesome. The dental care I've received has been consistently excellent. Dr. Haldeman and Dental Assistant Yvette are wonderful - they demonstrate the highest level of expert care, and they are very caring. I feel very assured that when I sit in the dental chair, I'm in good hands and that they will take care of me.
I'm happy to highly recommend them!

An amazing group of folks. Everyone is so warm, friendly and punctual. I have never waited more than a few moments in this office before my appointment. Mary is an amazing hygienist and Dr. G is awesome. Truly the best dental practice in WNC!

I was a new patient. All of Dr. Gillespie's staff, from the first person (Angie) to the last person I saw, was absolutely excellent. I'm lucky to find a dentist office this welcoming. Looking forward to getting great dental care!!!!

We met with Dr. Gillespie and Evette for a second opinion on maxillofacial surgery recommended by another doctor. They were empathetic with our situation and listened intently. We were very impressed with their personal attention to our needs. We would recommend this practice highly.

I reached out to them early Monday after a hard weekend when I broke a back molar. They got me in that day within an hour even though I wasn’t a current client!
Dr Amy & Wendy were so sweet and kind with me, I was really scared during the extraction. Wish they were in my network with insurance, I would totally make them my home dentist!

My first appointment and was quite impressed with the friendly environment and professional attention to detail. Also with the vast knowlege by the denist, hygienist and staff. Lots of experience with extensive knowledge of proper dential care and hygiene.
You will feel very comfortable at this practive.

Everything and everyone exceeded my expectations! Thank you for creating such a caring, comfortable environment! I will actually look forward to my next appointment!

Hannah is the best, most skilled, efficient and compassionate hygienist I have ever had. She is present with her patients throughout the cleaning.

Dr. Gillespie and Associates is the best dental group I have ever experienced. An amazing man, musician and master of dentistry!

Everything just works so beautifully at this office!
Staff, parking & warm fuzzy feeling here! I recommend to any & everyone looking for a dental practice to check this JEWEL out!

My appointment was for a new crown. Dr. Petersen and the dental assistant were efficient and professional at all times.

My wife has been a patient here for a while now, and I recently switched. My overall experience was very good, I was seen exacty at my appointment time, immediately in for x-rays, and other assessments, then cleanings and finally exam. Hannah, a new hygienist, was very friendly and efficient. Dr. Haldeman was also very friendly and efficient. From my singular experience, I would easily recommend this office to anyone looking for a good dental experience.

I had a GREAT experience with the hygienist (Mary Pearson). She was knowledgable, personable and efficient. Great at her job. I also had a positive experience with the dentist. She was frank, kind and not pushy with her suggestions.
My only concern was the cost - about $500 for a two hour appointment (cleaning, x-rays and photos, etc). I know all things have gotten more expensive but was still surprised by that. The x-rays and photos were over $300.
I'll still go back, but I'm a bit saddened by this trend among dentists. The last dental practice I went to (Zoe) was also very expensive.

Pat and I had our annual exams and we were very happy with the service. Hannah and Donna were superb hygienists, each treating us gently and completely. Dr. Haldeman was personable and excellent in our examinations. We left with shining teeth and confidence.

Everyone at the office is polite and professional. I have been going to this practice a long time and have always been very satisfied with the service provided.
