Always feel at ease and they are very attentive. Peggy did a great job on my teeth. If you need a dentist. I recommend Dr Fitts, highly.

Just recently went to see Kristie, my extraordinary dental hygienist. And as always she is patient, thorough, and does a great job. My teeth are very tight but she never rushes or hurts. Always feels so nice and clean afterwards. Thank you! The entire staff at East Limestone Family Dental are truly professionals and genuinely nice. This is the best place I've ever used in in the 35 years we have lived in this county. Dr. Fitts is a treasure, never trying to force you into a procedure but always gives the facts and recommedations. I would recommend these folks to my family and friends. They ROCK!
