A Letter from Dr. Sutton

Hey Everyone,

This is a very exciting letter for me to write, and I can’t wait to let everyone know that although a lot of things are changing for us, nothing is changing for you!  We are in the process of merging two incredibly blessed dental offices, and would like to announce that Dr. Kim Smith, Dr. Corbin Stringfellow and I will now be full partners.  Many of you already know and may have already seen Dr. Stringfellow, who has been working here for a little over a year and a half, and many of you also know that I’ve been sharing a building with Dr. Smith for the past 9 years.  Well, it’s finally time to fully join forces and allow us to grow to a point where we can do even more for our amazing patients.  Joining up into a team of dentists and staff allows us to stop duplicating costs, efforts and time, and allows us to afford better equipment, take better care of our patients and staff, and also lets us more easily help one another out if one of us is out of town or unable to make it in due to weather or illness.  We will each continue to see our respective patients when possible, but we can now be even more available if the need does arise. 

I’m so excited to further cement the friendship and professional relationship that Dr. Kim Smith and I have built during the last 9 years, and I welcome the chance that working more closely with him and Dr. Stringfellow will bring.  The biggest change that you as our patient will see is the name of the office.  Shortly before he passed away, my dad sat me down and told me that we would eventually need to change the name of the office if we wanted to grow beyond the borders of having only Sutton dentists, and now I can see his wisdom.  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.

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, 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 see that even more deeply as we go forward.

Sincerely,

Bradley Sutton
