It's been almost 9 years, and I still remember The DC Dentist! I'm a native of Baltimore, MD and have always been a follower of holistic health and wellness. What I remember most wasn't just the dentistry itself, but the warmth, professionalism, and welcoming atmosphere of Dr. Victor and his entire team! Those memories stayed with me long after my visit. Recently, while searching for a dentist here in Georgia, I reached back out for a referral. Not only did they respond, but they took the time to send a thoughtful recommendation and sent kind words that warmed my heart

Dr. Victor practic is the best dentist office I've ever been to. Waiting times never long. The receptionist makes you feel comfortable about being there with no worries. Everyone in the office is so pleasant ☺️ and Dr Victor makes very informative on what you need done and the whole process 👏. There like a familythere. Try them out they'll take very good care of you. Sending a happy birthday to chanel who's always smiling when i walk into the office. Have a wonderful day.
I love this practice. After visiting many other dentist in the DMV, DC Dentist is the best! My whole family goes there. The front desk attendees, Rhianna and Atoyah, are very knowledgeable and helpful. I appreciate the customer service provided.
I had a hard fall Wednesday, May 13, 2026, on a brick sidewalk, the only “traumatic” (The impact on my whole body) fall I’ve ever had in my life (I’m 81). It left chips on my front teeth and pushed one up into the gum which, when I looked at it, I thought the tooth was broken. I went to two dental offices before I went to what I would call my God-orchestrated visit with The DC Dentist, 509 11th ST SE, Washington, DC, 20003. I didn’t have an appointment, but receptionist Elise welcomed me and I was more than happy to wait however long it took. It had been real exercise from the day of my fall to try to keep the peace of God in my heart, not anxious or fearful. But when I left Dr. Victor‘s office Wednesday May 20, 2026, I had tears in my eyes and truly, people, truly felt the peace that passes understanding rooted in my heart. Let me just say this to finish: the atmosphere at Dr. Terry Victor‘s office is one of genuine respect, consideration, honest evaluation and explanation straight from the dentist’s mouth, not somebody else working in the office (my experience in the first two places I went). So, I know there’s major stuff going on with my teeth— receding gums and all, but I trust the Lord with all my heart leaning not on my own understanding, and I say thank you thank you thank you to Elise and Andrea, the two women on the front desk, and you, Dr. Terry Victor for my experience at your office. Ya’ll are the real thing, giving patients truthful, realistic consultations, and hopeful hearts.🤗 God bless you. Jacquelyn Goodheart
Dr Terry and his entire team did an incredible job gentle and patient and made my visit comfortable every step of the way. Best Dentist office I've ever had the privilege to visit. Awesome and welcoming atmosphere. I look forward to another visit there .
