James C. Standring, DDS

"Absolutely the best Dentist and Dental team I have ever had in my 35 years! They go out of their way to make sure you comfortable and can answer just about any question you might have. Dr. Standring has extensive knowledge and is constantly acquiring more by taking courses related to his profession! I have always hated the dentist but this place makes it SO easy to go to and actually leave feeling great! I'm so grateful he allowed us to become his patients because we had gone many years without dental because of the lack of dentists and their willingness to accept new patients! I would give him more stars if they would let me!"

"Kim is always wonderful with my son. He's 5 now, but he started visiting Standring's office when he was 2. Kim has always been calming and encouraging, and my son looks forward to coming in and getting a cleaning. Secretly, he might just be in it for the after-visit toy chest in the office, haha. My husband and I see Standring and we both have had a wonderful experience as regular patients. Super awesome dental crew."

"Dr Standring’s staff has always been highly professional and courteous during any scheduled dental appointments.Their efforts to meet my unique dental needs are exemplary. I would highly recommend their dental services to any of my friends or family and especially anyone newly relocating to Crescent City."

"Dr. Standring is a top-notch dentist. He is very thorough, concerned with patient comfort, clearly explains what is necessary and why. Due to a shortage of dentistry in our area as of the date of this review Dr. Standring is not taking new patients; his schedule is booked out for months if you do need work done, and his services are very expensive. Recently, as of January 2022, the office implemented a price increase as well."

"Went to Dr. Standring from a recommendation. I have a fear of dentists and was assured he would be understanding because he also had a fear of dentists. Went in for a cleaning and his assistants were very nice after a few minutes I was much less nervous. When Standring finally came in he had some stories he wanted to tell and would not really listen to anything I said. Fine. We scheduled a plan and then he said he wanted me to come back for a consultation before we began and we scheduled the next four appointments. The consultation was more of a multiple choice interview where he would say a scenario and I would answer honestly and then he would say how we weren't a good fit and then ask another question. It became very clear that he was just looking for an excuse to tell me he couldn't help me. I tried to explain my position several times and he would change my explanation to fit the scenario he had in his head. I ended up leaving frustrated and feeling like he had wasted my time. This is really too bad as I have heard some good things about him but unfortunately he had neither understanding for me or compassion."
