A Letter from Dr. Smith

Dear Friends,

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter to inform you of some exciting changes at Four Season Dental.  Over the past many years we have enjoyed serving your dental needs.  We have recently completed the process of merging Four Season Dental with Sutton Family Dental and I’m writing this letter to let everyone know that although a lot of things are changing for us, nothing is changing for you!  Many of you have asked if I am retiring, and wondered how this may affect you and your family.  I have plans on practicing several more years and this merger is the natural transition that has now just come to fruition. 

I have had the privilege of working and sharing office space with Dr. Bradley Sutton over the past 9 years and it has been a true blessing in my life.  In addition we have an associate,  Dr. Corbin Stringfellow, that will also become a full partner in our new venture.  We will now be known as Yellowstone Dental Associates or YDA for short.   We wanted a name that encompassed our love of nature, the wonder and beauty of the area we live in, as well as being generic enough that all three of us could operate under the same name without fighting over whose name gets used.  Plus, it is also a reference to Yellowstone Avenue, and the area of Pocatello where our building is located, since we’re right off that well-beaten path.

I’m very excited to further my professional relationship with these two great men and to continue giving quality dental care to our patients and friends.  What does this mean for you as a patient?  You will still see the same Hygienists and office staff that you have grown accustomed to.  Same office, same location and Dr. Smith will still be your dentist.  We will have a new name and some expanded flexibility to better take care of your needs. 

We are striving to provide you with the finest care possible and feel you will continue to have the same care you have come to expect!   Joining up as a team of dentists allows us to provide the latest technology and take better care of our wonderful patients and awesome team. We will each continue to see our respective patients when possible, but we can now be even more available if the need does arise.

We love our patients, and we will continue with every effort and technique we know to make your experience here second to none!  You are the reason that we are so excited about this venture, especially since the only change will be an even better experience.  Thank you for your friendship, and for allowing us the honor to serve your dental needs and for being so good to us throughout the years. We love our patients and hope you will feel that even more deeply as we go forward.

Sincerely,

R Kim Smith DDS
