Fantastic experience: I would like to share my unique and somewhat amazing experience at the Dental Office of Dr. John Fish, an Implant, Cosmetic and Sedation Dentist located in the Hildebran area of Catawba County. Thanks to his expertise, as well as his kind and reassuring manner, I have the smile I have dreamed of for many years. Dr. Fish operates his office in what I call an Inclusion Model. He actually sits down and consults with patients regarding every aspect of his treatment plan. I always knew exactly what to expect at every visit which created a relaxed and trusting environment for me. His support team was exceptionally kind, helpful and professional as well and I never waited longer than a few minutes before each appointment began. While there are many positive qualities of Dr. Fish's Dental Service, I was most impressed with his attention to detail, which I considered to be his perfectionism and his desire to do an outstanding job for me. Thanks to his perfectionism and his incredible skill I have a smile of which I am very proud. My smile says a heartfelt thank you to a most excellent Dentist and his excellent team. I would rate my experience with his service to be well above average as one of the best and most professional medical experiences of my very long lifetime. Sarah Padden March 25, 2025

John and his staff are like relatives that you only see every six months... they're glad you came to see them, they remember your kids names, and take genuine regard for how life is going for you. They treat you with respect and professional courtesy. (Which means not being left in the waiting room for 45 minutes reading old Sports Illustrated magazines.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend anyone to go to Dr. Fish. I was so embarrassed to smile and wouldn’t let anyone take a pictures of me. I was told before to going to Dr. Fish that I would need surgery to fix my teeth. It was going to cost over $25,000 to fix them.

Fantastic experience: I am always greeted with such a warm and friendly staff. Dr. Fish and all his staff make sure that I am comfortable and always provide the best care. Dr. Fish always gives 110 percent to his patients and I have a beautiful smile again. Thanks to the brilliant work that he does. Dr. Fish changed my life. When I first came to him about 28 yrs ago my teeth needed a lot of work. Dr Fish gave me back my confidence and a beautiful smile. Now here I am at 63 yrs old and needing another new bridge and he arises to the occasion once again. Dr Fish, you are truly a God send. Thank you with all my heart!!!

Fantastic experience: This has been a year long repair. I was very apprehensive and very nervous about what to expect. I had to have bone grafts, 4 implants and go through a partial, then temp. bridge and finally my permanent bridge. Never once did I experience pain, swelling or infection. It has all been worth it. I love my new bridge and for once in many years I don't mind smiling and showing my teeth. Dr. Fish and his staff are wonderful. They do everything to make sure the patient is doing well. I would recommend them to anyone needing a simple cleaning to any major repair. Thank you Dr. Fish and your staff for the wonderful work you have done for me. Thank you John V.

Fantastic experience: As a new patient, everyone made me feel so comfortable. I would normally anxiety out but never did. Dr. Fish was so kind and polite and concerned. Never have I experienced such a great Dentist. Looking forward to having pretty white teeth again!! And the staff was awesome!!

Fantastic experience: Great first impression! Not only did I get an appointment quickly for a consultation but they were able to do a very thorough examination on the spot, using state of the art equipment. No long wait in the waiting area either and the staff was super friendly and calm. I had not been to the dentist in a very long time because of my dental phobia, Dr. Fish was very understanding and his calm persona really helped me. What I liked was that the consultation was in a conference room and I was asked what my goal was, Dr Fish listened intently and gave me very good input. His experience is incredible and his credentials impeccable. They will be able to overhaul a major portion of my teeth, do some deep scaling and make several crowns on the spot, all in one appointment, under IV sedation. I am very much looking forward to getting this done. Thank you Dr. Fish and staff Update 4/10/25 Had my procedure and it all went exactly as promised. 5 teeth extracted, 2 crowns made and installed on the spot, deep scaling, all in one appointment! I had no pain during or now after the procedure and the staff was super caring, thanks Melissa for being such a great assistant to Dr Fish, even getting me a blanket and neck pillow! The bad teeth are gone, the crowns feel great and they are hard to see- they match so well. The hygienist did her magic while I was "asleep"- thanks Lisa! Dr Fish is an expert, experienced artist and very down to earth at the same time, he even called me in the evening from his cell to check in. I had IV sedation and remember little to nothing. On my request they gave me some nausea medicine right in the IV so I would not be sick and it worked great. In fact I feel really good just one day after, no bleeding or even swelling. Thanks Dr Fish and team

Fantastic experience: In my nearly 70 years, I have seen several other dentists and have required alot of work to be done. Dr. Fish and his staff are beyond amazing. I would not go anywhere else and only regret it took me so long to find Dr. Fish.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful caring office that does excellent work. Teeth straightened in less than a year.

Fantastic experience: Dr Fish and his staff are very friendly and professional. They make you feel like you are their only patient. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I went in on 11/12/ 24 for full mouth teeth extraction, studs installed and lower bridge. Dr. Fish made sure I understood the entire process and what to expect afterwards. The team went above and beyond to make me feel at home and comfortable. After an 8 hour surgery I went home and started the recovery process. I was checked on regularly and if I had any questions or concerns they were handled right away. First picture is at or close to Halloween the second is a few days after surgery. Then the last picture is today. 21 days later and the mental and physical change in me due to my smile and no more rot in my mouth is night and day. I cannot say enough good about Dr Fish and his team.

She was so patient and took her time to do what was needed to make what could have been a negative experience into a positive outcome.

Both Lisa and Dr. Stephenson discussed several options for my treatment to assure I would have a positive outcome. Thank you both.

Fantastic experience: After being told it was pretty hopeless for me to get implants I cant begin to tell you what an amazing experience I have had with Dr. Fish and his staff. I am now nearly finished with getting a full set of implants top and bottom and I couldn’t be more pleased. I have had 0 complications and have been shocked that I have literally had 0 pain as well. I was always a huge chicken of a dentist but Dr. Fish has been so comforting and reassuring, letting me know each step we would be taking and keeping me informed what would be next! If I could have given them 10 stars I would. I was truly blessed to have found Dr. Fish and highly recommend him to anyone who wants their smile back!!! I would like to add that the efficiency of this dental office is like no other. I have never ever sat and had to wait more than 5 or 10 minutes of my appointment time.
