Dr. Morrison’s Biography
Dr. Morrison was hooked on dentistry as soon as he performed his first filling on a model tooth in college. He was excited to see that he could use his hands to improve someone’s health. Since then he has traveled as far as Peru to do just that, participating in gratifying humanitarian efforts throughout several cities plus a remote village high in the Andes where many had never seen a dentist in their lives. “Prevention is key”, he says, joining Willamette Dental to break from the constraints of fee-for-service practice.
He’s also drawn to challenge and relaxation and, weather permitting, visits the golf course to recharge.

Dentist and team is great.
Jul 4, 2026
I was very pleased with my treatment. Although my issue was not resolved, I was referred to Oral Surgery for resolution. The dentist, alleviated my pain and patched my tooth to bide time until Oral Surgery could take place. This was my first time using Willamette Dental.

I have gone to Dr. Morrison for about 20 years! He's the best!
Jun 22, 2026
Everybody at this office is helpful and kind. And when I first came to this country, I was very frightened of the dentist. And because of the kindness and their understanding, I have not been frightened at all.
Jun 27, 2026
The doctor worked fast and well, I really appreciated.
Jun 22, 2026

Ooh goo'ness! I'm absolutely TERRIFIED of dental work (the emotional scars run deep, lol)! As such, I only go when things reach an "emergency" situation. I was an absolute BIG BABY in the chair, but Dr. Morrison and his assistant stuck with me through the anxiety, and what was s'posed to be a surgical extraction for a NASTY bad tooth was done as a "simple" extraction! Yeah, he's really THAT good. I have so much more work that needs to be done, but I'm trusting that all things will go just as well moving forward. I also very much appreciated the noted lack of judgement or scorn over the status of my needed dental repair. Seriously, I've let it get baaad.
Jun 14, 2026
It was a great support at that difficult moment. I thank the entire team very much!
Jun 14, 2026
Good experience, nice and knowledgeable provider

It was great
Jun 5, 2026
We really appreciate Dr. Morrison and the whole team. My daughter has had horrible anxiety with other dentists but feels comfortable with going to Willamette. Dr. Morrison is so good at putting her at her ease. Thank you!
Jun 3, 2026
Timely, professional and efficient

My son has a tooth that's causing a lot of pain and frustration. Looking online, there appears to be multiple ways to help it. The only option we were given was to brush his teeth more. Very frustrated. He can barely sleep.
May 28, 2026
Dental staff and front office staff were very helpful and answered all of my questions.
May 25, 2026
The dental assistant was so great with my daughter. She made her feel so brave throughout the whole thing. The dentist was just as patient and gave us the recommendation for their pediatric dentist in another office for better service for our daughter. We appreciated the team for making me daughter more comfortable at the dentist office.
May 24, 2026
I wanted to talk to Dr Morrison about some dental issues but did not have an opportunity. A phone visit might be a good start.
May 17, 2026
Good job & very professional
May 17, 2026
Amazing and friendly staff! From the front end to the actual doctors 10/10 thanks everyone and excited to go there for years to come!

I'm pleased that the policy from work is available online.
May 17, 2026
Everyone was friendly, helpful, and professional.
May 16, 2026
Overall perfectly fine experience and no issues. Just can tell this is a corporate dental office and staff not as personable as I have been used to at previous private practice dental offices.
May 13, 2026
I am very happy with the Williamette dental team! Thank you for providing good service!
May 11, 2026
Very good service. Thank you so much
May 10, 2026
Dr Morrison is just so wonderful! He called me, prescribed medication and helped me get out of my discomfort. He was able to also squeeze me in for a procedure same day (rather then having to wait 2 more weeks) So appreciative!! And the support staff was great too, returning my calls and listening to my issues. Tooth pain is the worst and having that help is memorable, so thank you!
May 6, 2026
Very caring and friendly.
May 6, 2026
I absolutely love my dentist and think he is the best! I have a lot of anxiety and he has a very calm presence. And I literally cannot feel their shots! And always listens to me if I start feeling anxious
May 8, 2026
I noticed on the paper they gave me that my blood pressure was high but no one mentioned this to me.
May 2, 2026
We highly recommend Dr. Morrison
May 2, 2026
All good.
May 1, 2026
Everyone is very friendly. The person who cleans my husband's teeth is very professional and does an excellent job. It's just very difficult to make appointments because every time I go, the receptionist tells me I came too early to make the appointment, and then when I return, she tells me there are no more appointments in the morning. It's very frustrating.
Apr 29, 2026
I was in a personal vanity crisis and received help in minutes!
Apr 29, 2026
I had a great experience, I just wish my dentist told me what was happening. He said I would need a root canal and then just went in and did it. I didn't know what was happening or what a root canal was, or how long the procedure would be or anything like that.
Apr 27, 2026
Friendly staffing
Apr 26, 2026
You guys are amazing!
Apr 26, 2026
I was told that I would see a specific hygienist and I didn't see her.
Apr 26, 2026
Every body is great
Apr 21, 2026
It's always a pleasure visiting, from the moment I walk in to when I leave. Great, friendly, professional team.
Apr 22, 2026
Dr Morrison was kind and gentle. He made sure I was comfortable and mouth numb before the procedure. I definitely recommend Dr Morrison to friends and family. He even asked what he could do to make my next procedure comfortable. We found a solution, and I'm ready!
Apr 21, 2026
Great staff.
Apr 19, 2026
Dr. Morrison is a very good Dr. He is kind and caring. I hope he is around for awhile longer.

I was there having a filling redone that fell out after just a couple of months. So I'm having issues with the quality of work since this is not my first repair that didn't last! First time with this Dr so we will see how this one does.
Jan 19, 2026

Everyone was very hospitable and I enjoyed chatting along with the assistant & hygienist.
Jan 7, 2026

Nov 23, 2025

Nov 23, 2025
Dr Morrison is by far the best dentist I've ever been to. He's kind and takes his time to explain things to me. I have huge dental anxiety from childhood trauma. I went years without seeing a dentist. Then we found Dr Morrison and I am a regular patient. Wouldn't want to go anywhere else ?
Nov 16, 2025
The dental hygienist was rough with my daughter even after my daughter had expressed so.
Nov 16, 2025

The dentist at Mill Plain was very thorough and explained what was happening. He did a very good job .
Sep 25, 2025
We've had Willamette Dental for years and I've almost always been completely happy with the staff. The one negative thing I have to say is that lately it's been difficult to get a routine appointment. Appointment dates are booked far out. When I call I'm offered one appointment and if that doesn't work for us then I'm told the calendar isn't open far enough to schedule. This results in a long game of phone tag as I work and can't always answer my phone. It shouldn't be this hard to schedule a routine appointment! I realize your offices are limited in Clark county, which may be part of the problem. The actual staff, including those poor people trying to schedule me an appointment, our great.
Sep 18, 2025
The dental hygienist was amazing. The dentist himself, Dr. Morrison, was very short and didn't stick around for questions. And I didn't feel like he cared that my daughter's teeth were hurting her and have been for the past two years. And anyways, thanks.
Sep 17, 2025
A very good experience for someone with high dental anxiety. A job well done, thank you very much.
Sep 15, 2025
You have a very caring staff.

Sep 1, 2025
Our provider and the staff at the Mill Plain location are wonderful. Scheduling appointments, however, is quite challenging with limited availability. I had to call four times to get appointments that worked for our family because time slots were filled and scheduling farther out was not yet available.
Aug 31, 2025
I called at least 5 times to get an August appointment. They kept telling me to call back and then there were no appointments. I got on a cancellation list. They need more dentists in Vancouver WA.
Aug 22, 2025
Dr. Morrison was amazing kind and efficient. Made my anxiety surrounding dentist and ease and listened to what I wanted/needed
