"Dr. Tolmie, it is difficult to begin to tell you how you and your team changed my life forever. I appreciate all you have done and will take good care of my smile. I no longer feel insecure!"
"A pediatric dental surgeon enthusiastically recommended Dr. Paul Tolmie to me, so I was prepared for excellent technical –surgical care. However, what prompts me to write this public statement is the balance of his kind, genteel, patient, approachable, professional manner. The pre-op visit was meticulous, with ample time allocated for any questions. Dr. Tolmie's combination of surgical mastery and genuine compassion was confirmed on the day of my procedure. Textbook painless procedure! Dr. Tolmie is in great demand. If you think you want an implant, Do Not Hesitate to secure his first available appointment."
"My experience with CharlottePerio was a positive one. I went into a holiday weekend thinking I may have an infection and called the office after hours. Dr. Tolmie was the "on-call" doctor and quickly returned my phone call. After realizing my community's pharmacy was already closed and no longer delivering, Dr. Tolmie drove the medication I needed to me. He couldn't have been any nicer or more helpful. I highly recommend Dr. Tolmie and CharlottePerio."
"Dr. Tolmie, you have always exhibited the highest degree of professionalism and excellence, both personally and in every aspect of your practice."
"Dr. Tolmie is a great doctor. With him, you are getting what counts - "Experience and thorough knowledge of the profession". I am very pleased with his work!"
"My adult daughter with disabilities received excellent care from Dr. Tolmie and his assistant, Lisa. They were professional, caring, and accommodating with our schedule since she attends school out of town. They took the time needed to answer our questions and phone calls were returned promptly. The procedure needed has a reputation for being quite unpleasant, but they made it very tolerable. The results were excellent as well. I can highly recommend them and, in a world where healthcare seems to be quickly changing, this was a positive experience all around."
"So pleased with Dr. Tolmie's work. The whole staff did an excellent job making me feel so comfortable during my procedure! Could not recommend more!"

"From the front desk to the dental hygienist, and ultimately to Dr. Corsig, I cannot say enough wonderful things after having gum graft surgery. The surgery was 1,000x's better than I expected, and the care and follow-up I received were remarkable. I'm under 40 and telling everyone I know with bad gum recession to get it done and get it done here!!! THE best!"
"Dr. Corsig & Staff, thank you for everything you have done for me. I was so worried when I went into your office, but everyone made me feel at ease. I look forward to seeing you for the next procedure! Thank you!"
"CharlottePerio is a fantastic facility. I've been going there for many years for periodontal care, hygiene cleanings & they've also done a dental implant to replace one of my molars. The doctors and staff are all extremely friendly and professional, and Dr. Corsig is far, and above the best doctor I've had the pleasure of visiting for all my periodontal needs. He has a great bedside manner and always takes the time to address all my questions and concerns. I highly recommend Dr. Corsig and CharlottePerio!!!"
"Dr. Corsig is a wonderful doctor and has exceptional skills as a dental surgeon. In addition, he is thorough and has a great bedside manner. Highly recommend him!"
"I was referred to Dr. Corsig by my Dentist. My experience has been extremely pleasant from the very first appointment with the staff as well as Dr. Corsig. Everyone has been extremely helpful, kind & professional. I would highly recommend this provider."
"My routine cleaning visit was exceptional as usual. The hygienist was phenomenal, very thorough, made me feel comfortable and the cleaning was painless. Dr. Corsig and his staff are a great crew that makes you feel like family. I used to be so afraid of the dentist, but now all that has changed with my care from CharlottePerio. Thank you!"

"Dr. Kerr and his staff are top-notch! After my first procedure, he called to check up on me and make sure I was feeling okay. The fact that he took the time to do that for his patient speaks volumes. Dr. Kerr explains everything in detail and answers all questions to make sure you understand what will happen. Very professional with a great bedside manner. I highly recommend Dr. Kerr."
"From the moment I called to make my appointment I was beyond satisfied! The person that help make my appointment had the most friendly voice and a wonderful attitude. She went above and beyond to help me get an appointment. That customer service continued with Dr. Kerr's appointment coordinator. She was very accommodating in trying to find me an appointment and went well beyond! And then the day of surgery...I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Kerr and his dental assistant. They actually made going to the periodontist a pleasant experience! Definitely a five star team!"
"I have been seeing Dr. Kerr for several years. He and the staff are outstanding. I had a traumatic experience in my youth that made dental appointments stressful. My appointments with Dr. Kerr have cured me of that stress. No pain. Very attentive and caring. Does excellent work."
"Dr. Kerr has a wonderful way of making you feel right at home. I laugh so much I sometimes forget about the appointment. That is how funny Dr. Kerr can be. The staff, "WOW," all I can say is amazing!!! What a great team. I will continue to share your warm southern hospitality to family and friends! I am a patient for life. 🙏"

"CharlottePerio's staff is wonderful! I called in pain, and Dr. Corwin worked me into his schedule that morning. He and his assistant, Regina, were awesome. They explained everything they were doing as they went along and what to expect, so no surprises. I'm so grateful to him and the incredible staff I encountered, from the initial phone call to checking in to when I left. Amazing office!"
"Dr. Corwin and his team are wonderful. I've been a patient for years for cleaning, gum grafting, and dental implant procedures. Professional, friendly, and spotless environment. Highly recommend."
"I had a wonderful experience from start to finish for my dental procedure. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I initially had concerns about getting anesthesia and the healing process; however, Dr. Corwin did an amazing job placing my implant. I'm so glad I chose CharlottePerio!"
"CharlottePerio is a wonderful office. From check-in to check out, you can tell this office cares about its patients. The ladies in the front of the office are very kind and welcoming. The assistants I met during my appointments were kind and informative. I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Corwin. You can tell he really cares for his patients. He answered all my questions and made sure I was comfortable during my procedure. The follow-ups after the procedure were great! This office goes above and beyond to make sure everything is clean. I felt safe at each visit with everything COVID-related going on. Dr. Corwin and his team are truly the best! Thank you all for the 10-star service!!"
"Dr. Corwin and staff are wonderful. They actually listen to you. The staff was very helpful in telling me about my procedure, prior to my visit. I didn’t feel rushed or just another patient. I recommend this place to everyone!"
"Exceptional service, most courteous, highly recommended!"
"Dr. Corwin did a fabulous job with my dental implant procedure. I have a good amount of restorative/cosmetic work and he carefully listened to my concerns and he gave me great options moving forward. The procedure was fast and I barely felt a pinch. Definitely working with him for my next implant, as he has an excellent "chairside" manner as a dentist. 100 stars for Dr. Corwin! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️"
