Dr. Andrew Watkins, DDS

Dr. Watkins is a native Texan who grew up in Bellaire. It’s no surprise he became a dentist, since his dentist father and dental hygienist mother operated a successful dental practice in south Houston for over 50 years.

He attended Bellaire High School, earned a BS from the University of Houston, and graduated in 2002 from The University of Texas at Houston – Dental Branch. He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Texas Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry and the Greater Houston Dental Society.

He is married and has two grown children, Evan and Kelly Rose. His free time is spent watching sports, playing golf and basketball, and eating apples.

We will help you choose the best option for dental treatment.

Stop by the office to look around, or call to get a no-strings-attached second opinion from Dr. Watkins. He will make some time to answer any questions you have.
