Cherie: I keep returning to Dr. Porter because he and his staff are so friendly and professional. I had some bad experiences with the dentist as a kid which caused me to be fearful. I stopped going to the dentist. I told myself, “My teeth are fine. I brush them every day. They don’t hurt. I’m good to go.” My husband started going to Charlotte Dental Arts and said to me, “I think you would like this guy. He seems pretty cool.” I took a chance, made an appointment, and have been a patient ever since.

Dr. Porter: We’ve built this practice from nothing. There were no patients when I opened the door over 27 years ago. It’s been a practice built from developing relationships with patients. Patient’s are not numbers here. Many places will say they won’t treat you like a number, but we’ve proven that for almost thirty years.

Cherie: I keep coming back to Dr. Porter. He understands my fear and has a great bedside manner. From the very beginning, he has been really patient with any procedures that I’ve had and has been really clear about what to expect during and after the procedure. He also addressed some of the bad experiences that I had as a kid. No one had ever done that. He took the time to address me on a personal level, some of the oddities about my teeth, my fears, and really made me feel comfortable. Dr. Porter is so nice. He and his staff have always been very friendly to me, my husband, and my girls. We’ve never wanted to go anywhere else.

He understands my fear. From the very beginning, he has been really patient with any procedures that I've had to have done.
