Dr. David O’Donnell, DDS — Lynchburg Dentist & Owner
Hello, I’m David O’Donnell, owner and dentist at O’Donnell Dentistry. I prefer to be the only dentist in our practice so I can give personalized treatment to every patient who walks through our doors.
Education & Training:
- Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) — New York University College of Dentistry
- Bachelor’s Degree — University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
- Continuing dental education every month
We have an amazing staff and I’m lucky to work with them. We’re like family, and many of our patients comment on how personable their experiences have been here. Our top priority is making you comfortable and fully informed about your options — there’s no pressure to accept a certain treatment. Your priorities, budget, and preferences determine your plan.
On a personal note, I grew up in North Carolina and now call Virginia home. I enjoy hiking with my family at spots like Sharp Top, McAfee Knob, Smith Mountain Lake, and Crabtree Falls. I’m always open to suggestions for more places to explore in this beautiful state. Thank you for reading, and welcome to your new dental home.
