“I am sitting at my table looking out the door at the beautiful sunshine and counting the many blessings the Lord has given me. Among those blessings is the privilege of knowing you and all the kindness you have shown me. During the time you were working on my teeth, you were considerate of me, you were gentle and I had very little pain. You wanted to be sure everything was the best it could be and you were not satisfied until everything was perfect, the teeth fit properly and I looked the best I could be. You took time to explain the procedures and what the options of treatment were available to me. Your relationships with other dentists and lab personnel were done in a very professional manner. All my friends tell me my teeth and face look better than before I had the implants. Many thanks for your help and advice. I look forward to a continuing relationship in the years to come. Best wishes for your success.”
~Jolyn Strauss, Los Alamos

“In 1999, I came to Dr. Williams-Turk with a mouthful of problems. She took models, pictures, and x-rays and developed a treatment plan. During these 10+ years I had braces and a full mouth restoration which even included an implant. Had it not been for the expert care and recommendations by Dr. Williams-Turk, I would have lost several teeth due to old leaking crowns that had not previously been detected. She is up to date on the latest technology with equipment to match. When entering her office, one is treated with such a caring attitude and creature comfort, that even the most apprehensive patient will feel relaxed. Thank you, Doctor, for giving me and preserving a beautiful smile!”
~Inge Plier, Santa Ynez


“Dr. Williams-Turk has been my dentist since October 1998. When I first appeared at her office, my mouth was a dental disaster, to the point I filed a lawsuit against my previous dentist. Since that time, my mouth has undergone a complete turnaround with her expert work and guidance. Through the years she has guided me through dental implants and regular dental care that has given me a sense of control that I haven’t experienced in many years. There is no way to adequately express my experience other than to say it’s good! Very good!”
~Burt Walker, Santa Ynez


“I am new to Dr. Williams-Turk’s practice. I have been a patient since 2009 and travel here from Lakeport. I needed some emergency treatment and had a number of dental problems. I liked the way that Dr. Williams-Turk looked at the big picture, prioritized my treatment and planned the treatment in stages according to my wishes and needs. She made it possible for me to get state of the art dental treatment that was flexible with my schedule and always kept me looking good even with temporaries. I really feel she treatment plans form my needs and not for her pocketbook.”
~Emma Owen, Lakeport

“When trying to select a dentist to address your oral health care needs, there are many factors which one must consider. Educational training is paramount, both at the dental school from which the dentist matriculated, and through continuing education courses, which allow a dentist to stay current with the ever evolving and expanding field of dentistry. Passions for perfectionism in ones work, as well as a genuine level of caring for each and every patient, are attributes of the dedicated practitioner. It is my pleasure to work with Dr. Williams-Turk, because she exhibits all of the qualities I feel are necessary to excel as a dentist. Her patients trust her implicitly; with her skills and competence being at the highest level. As an endodontist, I am referred patients from many general dentists; therefore I am exposed to a wide variety of dental skills. I feel fortunate to have Dr. Williams-Turk as a referral of mine, as I know that once my work is completed, an excellent final restoration, which is imperative to the success of any root canal, will always be fabricated in the hands of Dr. Williams-Turk.
~Jack A. Sturm, DMD - Endodontist: Root canal specialist utilizing the microscope and high resolution, low radiation ct scanning



“I have had the distinct pleasure of providing oral and maxillofacial surgery care for Dr. Williams Turk’s patients for 6 years. I am always impressed by how well informed her patients are about their specific dental and oral surgery needs. This is clearly a reflection of the extra time that Dr. Williams-Turk spends with her patients. Dr. Williams-Turk understands that not everyone is comfortable in the dental chair. Her ability to work with patients on their specific fears and phobias is what truly sets her apart from many of the other referring dentists that work with me.  It is this talent that enables her to practice minimally invasive yet comprehensive dentistry with even the most challenging cases.”
~Eric M. Wallace, DDS - Board Certified Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
