Dr. Godat and the staff are absolutely first class professional. Thorough and detailed as you could want with excellent results. Couldn’t ask for better experience.
I am a patient of Dr. Godat. In the process of having an implant. I have had my exam and in the process of this procedure. He and his staff are wonderful! Dr Godat called me personally to help me reschedule this procedure. You just do not find this type of hands on or customer service in this day and time. Dr. Godat and staff went above and beyond to help me fit this procedure into my busy schedule. I would highly recommend Dr. Godat and his team.
I had gum surgery at Periodontal Associates and everyone was incredible. Dr Godat did an excellent job and the service I received from the entire team throughout the process can’t be beat. I would recommend them to anyone.
My husband had a lot of work done. Work was done to perfection very professional staff. Dr Godat did a personal follow up after each procedure .Would recommend Dr Godat to anyone.
Great staff… Painless… Highly recommended.
I am terrified of dentists…I associate pain and discomfort with them. I must say Mr. Godat and his staff was exceptional! They left no stone unturned. They made me feel very comfortable. I was given several options of care. They explained everything before, during and after my visit. Honestly I can’t say enough about them. I truly didn’t want to leave.
Awesome place awesome experience. I understand why they are rated number #1 in Memphis. I look forward to them assisting me with my oral care.
Great Staff warm and Very friendly,I would point anybody in they direction that need a GREAT DENTIST!!!!
I never knew how much I was hurting until I didn’t hurt anymore. Dr. Godat and his team are phenomenal! I can enjoy so many foods that I haven’t been able to for years! Dr.Godat and his team truly cared about me and my fears. I felt important as a person as well as a patient. I will recommend Dr. Godat, highly, to friends and family and say with the utmost sincerity and conviction, thank you for taking such great care of me over the past year! GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!
Friendly, conscientious service from all the staff members who worked with me. They were successful in eliciting my trust and keeping me as comfortable as possible. Work and demeanor friendly and professional. Many thanks to all of you!
Dr. Godat and the staff at Periodontal Associates Of Memphis are the most professional and personal individuals I’ve ever encountered in a medical office. From the pleasant front desk staff to the nursing staff. A special acknowledgement of Jamie who has taken great care of me on my journey. I am not one who fears the dentist but if you are you should give this office an opportunity to serve you. I know you will not regret your decision.
This practice has outstanding people working for them. Everyone was welcoming and showed true care for my health. Their office was comfortable and quiet. Dr. King did a great job with my dental Exam and found a solution to an issue that I didn’t know could be fixed. Susan did an amazing job cleaning my teeth and they have never felt cleaner after a cleaning. Your comfort is their first priority.
Everyone was so nice especially Anna and Allison! Dr. Godat was so nice and thorough. He went over the X-rays with me and answered any questions I had. Alex in the billing area was great also! I highly recommend them!
My daughter Nyla had an adult tongue tie or frenectomy procedure completed by Dr. Craddock. I don’t know where to begin with this review. Everything was excellent! A+, unbelievable! This office is by far the best experience I have ever had with a medical doctor and staff. The most impressive part of my family’s experience was 1) consistency and 2) Everyone has the same spirit. They all smile! They all greet you whether your a new or old patient. They all seem to be informative. There is not an ugly spirit in the whole clinic, unless it’s locked up in a file room. They explain everything thoroughly and I never sensed any prejudice. These folks need to teach the entire mid south how to provide care. To top it off the procedure went well and our soprano can now roll her ‘r’s. I salute all of you! I can’t remember your names but it doesn’t matter because y’all are a team. Thank you.
Wonderful place and staff. I feel so much better about my future now thanks to them. Everyone was so kind to me and showed a genuine care about my well being. I’m very grateful to be in such good hands.
I am so happy that I chose this group to work with for my implant. Every person that I worked with at this office was competent and friendly. Each person followed up when I had a question or concern. The ladies at the front desk, Teresa and Noi were awesome! I needed a note for my boss but forgot to get it when I was there and Noi had it in my inbox by the time I was home. Whitney was extremely knowledgable about what was going to happen the day of my procedure which was refreshing since she is the finance coordinator. She help me get a payment plan that worked for my budget. Shana also was very through to explain what was happening during each step of the process. I felt very comfortable with her. What can I say about Dr.Craddock but he is the best! I was having anxiety about some aspects of the implant and he sat down and spent time explaining the procedure, materials, process etc…The work that he did in my mouth was perfect. I never had any pain even after the initial day the implant was installed. I HIGHLY recommend this practice to anyone who wants to have a good experience from the get go.
The staff is very personable and professional. I have not had a bad experience. Dr. Godat is amazing and takes his time to answer questions. I would highly recommend them.
I started with Dr Miller, he saved my teeth that we thought could not be saved. I’ve been a patient for over 20 years. Services has included Bone Grafts, Implants, and Periodontal Maintenance. All the hygienist are the very best in the city. I do believe they care about the wellbeing of their patients. I’m glad to be able to recommend Periodontal Associates.
I drive 1 1/2 hours to Periodontal Associates because I refuse to go anywhere else. They are very professional and polite.
The team is very patient and professional with each individual like you are the center of their attention. They use the latest, up-to-date equipment to give you the best periodontal experience!
I love having my teeth cleaned by the hygiene team! They take such great care of all of us here at Perio Mem.
The whole team at periodontal associates was SUPER! Thanks to all of you for your professionalism & caring spirits! I usually don’t look forward to a dental visit but you guys make it sooo much easier! I know that I am in great hands!! AWESOME JOB!
They always seem to care
Professional and caring service and staff. Top periodontal and laser surgeons in Memphis.
I love this organization. They are very professional and do an awesome job. The assistants are great. Thank you for all you have done for me.
So glad I was referred here years ago! Love seeing Susan for cleanings every 3 months!
My experience with Dr. Godat and the team has been awesome! I buried my only child December 2017. This team of professionals demonstrated so much compassion and ALL had uplifting words to say. Not only my beautiful teeth smiles because of Dr. Godat’s work, but the entire team makes my HEART smile.
I just love the people that work at Periodontal Associates. Everyone is so polite and professional. Dr Godat is the Best!!!
Without a doubt the best! The first question was…would you recommend our services? Indeed! Having had some major surgery including surgical tooth extractions and bone grafts, the pain was minimal and required very little of the pain medication. Dr. Godat is superb and an expert in his field. The staff from the front door when you walk into the exam room and other services, every patient is greeted with a SMILE! Still in post op treatment as I write, if you or someone you know needs/requires periodontal services, look no further. Thank you Dr. Godat for saving me from a mistake that I know I would have regretted! This patient is a huge fan!!!
I had the best experience with the placement of my implant with Periodontal Associates of Memphis. Not only was my procedure explained in full, but I cannot express how much Dr. Godat and his team go to great lengths to make sure your procedure goes smoothly covering every detail along the way. The staff is so kind and calls to follow up on every procedure to make sure you are ok. They are truly THE BEST in oral care and I recommend them all the time!
I had a great experience with Dr. Godat and his staff. They were all pleasant, professional, and informative. I would definitely recommend Periodontal Associates of Memphis!
If you are facing significant dental services and are nervous about the journey, I highly recommend Dr. Godat and his team. I had gum surgery and bone grafting a year ago and have been thoroughly pleased with the process thus far. It has given me a new lease on my dental hygiene and, given that my gums are healthy enough for implants, I am hopeful that I’ll soon have the smile that I’ve dreamed of having. The receptionists are kind and welcoming and the hygienists are extremely encouraging and communicative, consistently offering tips and tools for dental maintenance. Jane was especially thorough and attentive. I am grateful that I found this office.
Dr. Godat and his staff are wonderful! I was very apprehensive about having any periodontal work done because I had a horrible experience during a dental procedure at a different dentist. Because I shared my concerns with the staff here, they prepared me well for my procedure so I wouldn’t feel anything! They also checked in on me multiple times after the procedure. At my final visit, they even gave me a nice little goodie bag. It’s always a pleasure going to see Dr. Godat and his staff. They are wonderful!
The entire staff here is kind, caring and professional, and Dr. Godat is an excellent, attentive periodontist. My appointments were always punctual and Dr. Godat and his staff always made sure I knew what to expect at each visit. He even called me the day after my surgery to make sure I was feeling okay. Had my final check up today and was given a goodie bag with all sorts of fun things in it – not just the usual oral hygiene stuff, but a tumbler, sunglasses and a Target gift card, too.
What a great initial visit with Dr. Godat and team I had yesterday. Anna was very thorough and personable. She explained each step before starting and the results after. It’s comforting to see people take pride in their job. I wish all physician offices had the same level of integrity as she does. Kudos to the team!
I am terrified of the dentist and anyone messing with my teeth. After a traumatic experience as a child, I’ve been a terrible patient! I put off having the crown lengthening and gum graft for YEARS and I’m so ashamed! Dr. Godat and his team were so understanding and validating of my fears and they answered all of my 100s of questions with kindness and so much grace! The procedure itself was not nearly as bad as I had convinced myself it would be. They followed up multiple times and continue to be an incredible source of knowledge and kindness to me. I didn’t realize how bad my teeth looked previously, but have received so many compliments on how much better my teeth look now and how healthy my gums are! I’ve gained so much more confidence knowing that I have a better smile. Thank you, Dr. Godat and team for EVERYTHING!
We received excellent care & as far as we are concerned there is NO ONE better than Dr. Godat & his staff. We did not have to wait for very long to see them according to our appointment time. The quality of my husband’s life has improved due to the treatment he received. His smile does not even look like the same mouth now. They are all very knowledgeable & professional & we would recommend their services to our friends & family.
I’ve had 2 surgeries and one deep cleaning. I had no idea what to expect but I had NO pain what so ever after each surgery. The directions given to me were excellent and easy to follow. Dr. Godat and the entire staff are very friendly and make you feel comfortable. I would definately recommend this group for anyone needed extensive dental care!

Periodontal Associates of Memphis is a great operations model with exceptional staff! Personnel are friendly, courteous, and very talented. From day one till final completion, I was always fully informed of the procedure to be done, how it went, and what was next. All questions were fully answered, and Dr Godat was personally involved in the communications process. Highly recommended! Kudos to Dr Godat & his superb staff!
I would highly recommend Dr. Godat and his staff to anyone. I had all my bottom teeth removed, then bone & tissue grafting, and 3 implants to attach a bottom denture. Then I had tissue grafting on my upper teeth where the gum had receded to almost the roots. I was always treated like I was the only patient that day and so professional as well as friendly. This office goes out of its way to prevent infection. They tell you exactly what they are going to do and how to make what they do successful. They did their part and I did mine so it was a truly satisfying experience. PS I have always been apprehensive when it comes to dental work, but they made me feel at ease. I was privileged to have the best in this field—-Dr. Mitchell Godat and his entire staff.
I am very pleased with my surgery that was done by Dr. Godat earlier this year. In fact, I was so pleased that I recommended Dr. Godat to my wife and she changed an appointment for an implant that she was doing with another dentist and had the work done by Dr. Godat. We are both pleased with the work that was done by Dr. Godat and his staff.
The experience for my son was a very good one. He was calmed by your technicians and Dr. Godat made his surgery and sedation and easy experience. I would recommend your practice and have done so, again.
Without a doubt the best! The first question was…would you recommend our services? Indeed!

The staff and Dr. Godat are amazing! I knew exactly what to expect prior to my procedure and the results couldn’t be better. I had a question regarding the healing the day after my procedure and I was able to speak directly to Dr. Godat rather than go through other staff members. To me, that is invaluable. I highly recommend this office!
My husband and I are both dentists and we absolutely have the utmost respect for Dr. Godat and Dr. Craddock. They are not only very professional but also very good at what they do. They come highly recommended by us both!
The doctor and staff are professional and very knowledgeable about dealing with varied dental problems. They explain whatever procedures are necessary and the costs. No physical pain but some in the bank account. But you will find some compensation in the caring and supportive relationships with the doctor and staff. Dr. Godat also sends both the referring doctor and patient a letter summarizing the treatment and any plans for future work.
Dr. Godat and his staff are the most courteous and helpful folks that I have come across in a professional situation. I was able to overcome my attack of nerves very quickly from the confidence and reassurance I received.
I was a problem patient in that I was not easy to sedate fully. Dr. Godat did a wonderful job, working under difficult circumstances. My implants are wonderful! I’m very pleased with the results and highly recommend this practice!
I had the best experience. All of the staff were wonderful to work with. They walked me through everything so there were no surprises. Dr. Godat even personally called me after to make sure everything was going well. When I went to the office for my follow up appointments, everyone knew my name and it felt so welcoming. I highly recommend Periodontal Associates of Memphis!
Dr. Godat and staff – you ALL provide the best care especially considering how difficult some of us can be with all the work we need! Thank you very much.
Periodontal Associates provides outstanding service. From the moment one enters the office, staff are friendly, helpful, skilled and caring. For those of us who have experienced difficult dental issues for a long time, that characteristic of “caring” is especially important. A few years ago, I went to Dr. Godat for a second opinion: I had been told by another periodontist that I had periodontal disease but I was skeptical. After extensive examination and review of my dental history, Dr. Godat assured me that I did not have periodontal disease. He was able to resolve my dental issues and has also performed a dental implant. I have recommended him to several of my friends. I think he is simply the best! Not only is he an exceptionally knowledgeable and highly skilled periodontist, he is also a really nice person.
I would like to thank Dr. Godat and his lovely staffs for the amazing job that they do! I had a dental implant placed and crown lengthening done back in September 2015 and could not have been more pleased with the outcome! My self confidence is now on a whole new level after my crown lengthening procedure was done! They have been more than great during the whole process and have made my whole experience wonderful! I will definitely recommend them to everyone I know! 🙂
