I've been cared for by Dr. Willoughby and her staff for many years (over 20!) and have to say she's a very special dentist. Her patience, kindness and expertise have been so appreciated through multiple appointments and different procedures. I fully trust her judgement and I appreciate her willingness to take time to listen and care. Her entire staff are exceptional as well! Thank-you for such excellent care!

I Could Not Be More Satisfied

by Joe E.

May21,2018

After years of displeasure with dental care, I have found a group of professionals who listen, engage me in the process and are very focused on making me comfortable. Every procedure is carefully explained. Every single person in this practice demonstrates through their actions that they are very intent on patient satisfaction. You are made to feel part of the process. The office is clean, modern and comfortable. They are always prompt and respect the value of your time. After many years of avoiding dental care because of the discomforts involved, I now visit Dr Bare and her staff without apprehension. I have a bright new smile, a much healthier mouth, and far less day to day discomfort. I very highly recommend these folks. After a full year of care I could not be more satisfied.

Warm and Caring

by John J.

May21,2018

Dr. Willoughby as been our dentist for 13 years. We hooked up when we moved to Asheville and we have never felt the need to look elsewhere. The relationship we have with Wendy has become like the relationship you have with your favorite cousin. I'm on a "walker". On my last few visits Wendy has personally helped me with the two doors leading into her office suite. This last time my wife was waiting for me in the car, saw Wendy at the doorway, hopped out of the car, and proceeded to give and get the warmest Merry Christmas hug imaginable from Wendy out in the parking lot. Besides being an extremely competent dentist she is a warm and caring person. I can't recall a similar relationship with any other health care professional. She is truly like part of our family .

Each time I visit Dr. Bare, I continue to be amazed by and thankful for the welcome that I receive. I practically feel like Dr. Bare, Dr. Willoughby, and all of the staff are members of my extended family. There is no where else I will go for my dental needs. If you are looking for a dentist, I strongly encourage you to make that first visit and see for yourself the amazing people working together as a family to make our lives a just a little better. They have made mine much better, by treating me with respect and dignity. Thank you for all that you have done for me. You all are amazing!

Dr. Willoughby has been my dentist for over a decade. My appointments are always prompt and she is really thorough in her exams. She and the staff are so kind, careful, and gentle.

Extremely Pleased

by Kristin F.

May21,2018

Early this year, I made the decision to support as many female-owned businesses as possible in all my dealings. First on the list was a new dentist. Based upon earlier reviews, I decided to give Dr Willoughby a try and I still cannot believe how happy I am that I did. From my first check-up (the most thorough I've ever had in many decades) to the subsequent extensive work I've had done over the past two months, I've been nothing but extremely pleased with both the care and the results. When is the last time a doctor's practice sent you a personal thank you card individually signed by everyone in the office? Not only is the care of the entire staff warm, personable and extremely competent, this lovely practice offers both state of the art equipment as well as art on the ceilings! From the moment you walk into the art-filled, purple and earth-toned rooms, I think you will agree, this is the least stressful and most competent dental practice in town. Highly recommended.

5 Stars for Dr. Willoughby and her wonderful team!

by Joe

May21,2018

5 Stars for Dr. Willoughby and her wonderful team! After neglecting my teeth for more years than I care to think of, I went to Dr Willoughby to get an honest opinion about the future of my teeth and gums. She and her team are my miracle workers! Each and every one of them go above and beyond, turning my much dreaded visit into three pleasant visits. With them, I'm achieving beautiful teeth and an optimistic plan for the future of mouth.. I highly recommend!!

Smiles All Around

by Peter C.

Jul26,2017

Going to the dentist can be stressful, of course, but headed up by delightful and careful and very good Dr. Wendy Willoughby, you could not ask for a more compassionate and caring group of professionals. I always feel well taken care of and believe I have the best dental care I have ever had. The very fact that there is artwork on the ceiling of every treatment room, the very first time any dental practice I have been to has been that tuned into the patient experience, says volumes about Wendy's thoughtfulness and attention to detail that extends across every aspect for her practice. I am so grateful. What a fine group!!

Wonderful Experience!

Everyone on Dr. Willoughby\'s staff was wonderful! They all made me feel completely at ease and dispelled any fears I came in with due to some past experiences. I like that she takes a minimalist approach and all recommendations were doable even on a limited budget. I will definitely be back to complete my treatment plan with Dr. Willoughbys office. Thank you!

Exceptional Dental Care

by Nancy K.

Our entire extended family have been patients of Dr. Willoughby for more than a decade. Our care has been exceptional. Dr. Willoughby provides great preventative care and education at each appointment. Her office strives to make your dental experience comfortable from the time you arrive until you leave. We are always greeted in a friendly and caring manner by her staff who go out of their way to make your appointment a positive experience. Her dental assistants are well trained and professional along with Dr. Willoughby which allows them to provide the most comfortable care for their patients no matter the procedure being performed. Our family would highly recommend her practice.

Semi-annual checkup + Cleaning

Dental Care to the Max

by Aviva B.

May 8,2017

Always a wonderful and educational visit to Dr. Willoughby's office on Chestnut Street, Asheville, NC. Many procedures have been completed since July 2016. This visit was for a thorough cleaning and check on my personal home care. Suggestions were made regarding exactly how to string floss beneath the two bridges that have been permanently affixed to my upper right and left teeth to provide me with a fantastic smile. No more empty spaces. Also, I was instructed to the use of my water pic in my shower to eliminate getting the water all over the surrounding area where I daily perform my routine daily dental hygiene. This is a very friendly and professional place to take care of my teeth. I am proud to know the staff and especially Dr. Willoughby.

A warm personable environment

by Anonymous

May 8,2017

I really like that not only is Dr. Willoughby and staff skilled, they're also very personable. They're real people! Not the clinical rigidity I've experienced in other dental offices. I also like very much that they're open to my input and my home dental care procedures, hearing about my research on options, listening to my concerns, and answering all of my questions thoroughly. I feel like we're a team working together for my dental health. I love that! Also, the colors and decor there are very warm, bright, and happy. I feel very comfortable there, which is so important when getting dental procedures. Thank you!

Couldn't have asked for better!

I recently moved to Asheville and chose Dr. Willoughby without a recommendation and based primarily on her proximity to where I live. She, her assistant, the woman who cleaned my teeth, and the women at reception were professional, courteous, understanding, and clearly enjoyed their work in addition to being good at it. My previous dentist was fabulous, but I think I'll be even happier here!

This was first experience at the office and had a dental cleaning. It was a non stressful experience, which is unusual for me. The hygienist was highly skilled and shared her findings with me immediately. I will follow up on one recommendation. I noticed the low noise level from the power instruments and I think this was helpful in reducing my dental stress. All the staff was courteous and friendly. As a bonus there is a keurig in the waiting room. Thank you to the staff at Dr Willoughbys office

Great service, I even had a good time with everyone who worked there. A very nice and lively place to go to. Dr. Wendy was also very impressive and i enjoyed my time with her. She was cordial, knowledgable and performed very well while working on me. I especially appreciated how she kept me informed about what she was seeing while she was working on me and educated me about what it meant; it really helped me to understand more about what was actually happening with my teeth (rather than just thinking of it as being "bad") while also providing me with the inspiration to really take care of my teeth. This was definitely the most valuable part of my experience, coming away with the refreshed and reinvigorated appreciation for the value of my teeth and the care taking that goes into their continued wellbeing. ~Bless

My dental experience was wonderful! This visit was for a cleaning, after many years without one, and Brandi was so wonderful to me. She told me everything she was doing and why. Dr. Bare also spoke with me as a friend, not just as a patient. The whole office staff is always so pleasant. Each time I go, I get a little less nervous about going to the dentist. You will NOT find a more caring dentist or office staff than with Dr. Bare and her staff. Go one time and see for yourself how wonderful the experience is

by Deborah M.

My husband and I both have really serious decisions to make about our teeth. After other attempts, this was first dentist to include options actually affordable for us. Dr. Bare spent at least an hour thoroughly explaining the steps, pros, cons and even offered contact information for less expensive outsourcing for some of the procedures. Also, other staff made us feel so appreciated as new patients. At least with this staggering decision ahead, we feel in confident and caring hands. Thanks to all at this practice!
