Meet Your Dentists
Dr. Johnson and Dr. Dodson
Dr. Makenzie Johnson and Dr. Carrie Ann Dodson form the cornerstone of our practice, each bringing unique strengths to your dental care. Dr. Johnson, a double major in Biology and Psychology from the University of Georgia, combines scientific expertise with a keen understanding of patient comfort. Dr. Dodson, an Auburn University alumna with a degree in Biomedical Sciences, brings hometown pride to her practice.
Both doctors pursued their passions at renowned dental schools — Dr. Johnson at UAB and Dr. Dodson at the University of Tennessee. When not perfecting smiles, you might find Dr. Johnson enjoying Lake Martin with her family or Dr. Dodson cheering at an Auburn game. Their complementary skills and shared commitment to excellence ensure you receive top-tier, compassionate dental care.
