They took great care of me! I would highly recommend them to anyone. I know I am given the best care and honest opinions.

Hollyn F. 4/28/2026

I had a very severe pain which I had misdiagnosed (both what it was and where). Dr. Cottongame correctly identified the actual issue very quickly. They got me in promptly and took care of it. Dental care isn't exactly something that makes me comfortable, but Dr. Cottongame and his assistant were top notch. Great experience through the whole process, now I will stop avoiding the dentist and prevent this situation happen again haha!Five Star Doctor, Assistant, Office staff and facility. Highly recommend. Thanks!!

Best Dentists and Hygienists in Texas!Best looking practice, it looks like it came out of an issue of Architectural Digest.

Myshuna B. 2/26/2026

I was a little unsure when the practice changed over from Dr. DeHay, But the same friendly faces are there and Dr. Atkins shows the same care and concerns as I got from Dr. DeHay. I feel very comfortable with him and have full faith in what he does.Just finished up a cleaning in your new office. I still have the best to say about Dr. Seth and his staff. They always have time for me if I have chipped a tooth or some minor problem. They are the Best of the Best. I can't say anything more they are the BEST

Art W. 2/18/2026

I hadn’t been to the dentist in years. Sarah made me feel very comfortable and she was very encouraging. Nice conversationalist. Dr Cottongame has an excellent bedside manner. He was very knowledgeable and answered my many questions. Everyone there was very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend going there, especially if you have any apprehensions, they will make you feel comfortable!

Marc W. 2/13/2026

John B. 2/03/2026

Very friendly and professional. Took their time with me and answered all my questions.

Karen W. 2/03/2026

We were searching for a new family dentist and chose Dr. Atkins for my first visit as new patient. This is a delayed review, but a well-deserved one. I have dental anxiety, Dr. Atkins was exceptionally patient, kind, and compassionate. He took the time to listen to my concerns and made me feel safe and comfortable. I was scheduled treatment for cavity work and a molar extraction. What truly stood out was that he personally called me the evening after my extraction to check on how I was doing. That level of care made me feel like he genuinely cares about his patients, not just as cases, but as people.

Xinxin F. 2/02/2026

Absolutely best experience each and every time! Friendliest staff and everyone makes you feel so welcomed and is super helpful!

Brandy D. 1/30/2026

Marcus b. 1/23/2026

The staff is so friendly, the establishment is clean, and most of all, Dr. Colby Cottongame is awesome. He treated me with the utmost care, gentle. He explained steps by steps all he was going to do. He doesn't pressure you about dental care. He knows how to communicate very well with patients. He is just super. And for the record, on my very first first I had a tooth extraction (my choice) and a crown. He was wonderful. His assistants were just fantastic. These people really know how to care for you. I highly recommend this dentistry.

My experience with this office was amazing. Beginning with Jenny at the front desk and how she made my making an appointment so smooth despite my recent name change and other issues with my insurance documentation.

I am so grateful to this wonderful dentistry team, from the time I first met the clerks, to the office staff, and Dr Cottongame.

My son and I went for our first visit on 9/17/25. I couldn’t be happier with the service we received. My adult son has a disability and Tera was incredibly sweet and patient with him. I had Jana and she explained everything she was doing . We both got great reports on our teeth from Dr. Atkins and the hygienists and we scheduled our next appointments. I highly recommend them .

Rachel K. 9/18/2025

Great experience at Ellis County Family Dentistry. My wife and I had our first visit yesterday and we were both so impressed with the entire staff. We highly recommend Ellis County Family Dentistry.

Rodney B. 9/16/2025

I highly recommend this office. I have very bad anxiety when it come to dental visits and everyone here from the counter to the hygienist and the dentist Dr. Seth Atkins was amazing. Truly the best dentist office I have ever been to the work was quick and they made sure I wasn't in any pain. Would probably drive hours if I had to!

Lacey A. 9/12/2025

Dr Atkins has been my dentist for 4-5 years. I have had extensive dental work performed and could not be happier. His practice is excellent from the moment you are greeted by Jenny to the dental hygienists and technicians. Every employee projects a positive attitude. I talked my husband into changing to Dr Atkins and he had his first visit this week and now he knows why I drive so far to this practice. He was very impressed with his cleaning and thorough exam. You are in excellent hands with Dr Atkins and his team!

Sandra L. 9/05/2025

Excellent experience!

Kristi H. 9/04/2025

A+ but pricey.

David L. 8/22/2025

Never have we ever experienced this kind of treatment!!! Staff amazing provider as well, this is not your typical dental office where once they(other dental offices) see commercial insurance we are viewed as money symbols and not patients.. Here at Ellis County Family Dentistry they saw my family and treated us as their family… I am just amazed!!!

Javier i. 8/21/2025

From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with warm hospitality and a spotless environment. Everyone I encountered—from the front desk to the rest of the staff—was genuinely kind and welcoming.

Christina L. 8/15/2025

I’m not really good at describing experiences by typing but i have only good things to say about this business friendly staff, good music, the massage chairs and cold water.. Thank you for making me feel like i have perfect teeth. Hahaha Great experience, 10 out of 10 recommended

Antonio P. 8/07/2025

This is my second time at Ellis County FAMILY Dentistry. Jennifer does an excellent job as my dental hygienist. I’m sure the other hygienists are just as welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly as Jennifer. Dr. Cottongame is very down to earth. Not only did he give me a thorough exam after my cleaning ( unlike some drive thru experiences I have had elsewhere in the past) He gave me some excellent advice and referrals! See you all in 6 months.

Marian P. 8/07/2025

Everyone was very friendly. They were also thorough and professional.

JENNY IS AWSOME! Their response time in my emergent need for my dental needs was superb!

Carrie C. 7/23/2025

We’ve had nothing but great experiences here! The team is kind, professional, and really puts you at ease. We’ve used them for everything from cleanings and fillings to retainers, and the quality of care has always been top-notch. What I really appreciate is that their recommendations are always practical and honest — never pushy or sales-driven. You can tell they genuinely care about your health, not just making money. I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and welcoming dental practice.

Nikki 7/23/2025

The best dental office ever! I've never been treated with so much compassion, understanding and care. The whole staff is truly wonderful and so caring.

Dr Cottongame is the best, he is good at what he does and he makes the experience less stressful. I broke a tooth and he gave me three options, the finance dept came in and went over the cost of each and I was able to pick what best suited my budget.

Sheila H. 4/25/2025

Everyone I came in contact with were delightful!

Bruce S. 4/23/2025

Amy L. 4/11/2025

They got me in as a new patient the day I called them with achey tooth pain. They were sweet and empathetic and I left with not only a clear picture of my issues but my choices and the steps to take and exactly how much it would cost to solve that achey pain!Excellent care!I will be back!
