TESTIMONIALS
Hear from Our Dentists
I've used EDIC my entire career. The customer service is excellent. I've been working with Teri Breci-Lecesse for many years. She is amazing and has always been available to answer questions or provide assistance whenever I've needed her. Dentistry is a rewarding but stressful career and having support is critical. EDIC goes above and beyond!
— Susan Smith Thompson, DDS | EDIC Insured, General Dentist – NC
EDIC makes Malpractice Insurance EASY! I have used EDIC for my malpractice insurance since graduating dental school. I love that they only insure dentists, so they know exactly how to manage my malpractice needs. Other companies insure more than just dentists, so when I was looking for malpractice insurance, I received quotes for crazy rates. I love that EDIC provides rates based on other dentists in my state and have the most competitive rates in the market. They also provide discounts for taking malpractice continuing education. I appreciate this continuing education because I learn little Pearls to help keep me compliant. They also provide great support and advice on how to keep you protected. When you call, everyone is friendly and not judgmental. I am highly satisfied with EDIC for all my malpractice needs.
— Rebekkah Merrell, DMD EDIC Insured | EDIC Ambassador General Dentist – NC
“EDIC provided skilled representation, comprehensive coverage, and peace of mind which was very comforting. I am grateful for EDIC's support and service throughout this experience and moving forward.”
— Wes Winslett, DMD | General Dentist – NC
EDIC is always available to answer questions or help me avoid a potential issue about managing a case, proper documentation, or even a patient’s treatment refusal. The “By Dentist, For Dentists” approach really echos. EDIC truly understands the struggles dentists deal with on a daily basis. No questions asked, being with EDIC has made me a better dentist.
— Michael A. Cooper, DMD | Cooper Dental, General Dentist, EDIC Board Director, EDIC Insured – MA
“Eastern Dental Insurance Company (EDIC) has been an invaluable partner in my journey as a practicing dentist. I have been with EDIC since graduating from dental school in 1994. Their comprehensive coverage and " By Dentist, For Dentist" approach have allowed me to focus on providing the highest quality care to my patients with great peace of mind, knowing that like-minded professionals always " have my back" on all levels. With their support and available resources, I am confident in my ability to meet the needs of my patients while also being a proactive member of my dental team. EDIC's dedication to excellence in service aligns perfectly with my professional ethos, making it an indispensable asset to my practice.”
— Peter Arsenault, DMD, MS, MBA
As dental practice owners, we are required to play many roles – clinician, manager, CEO, CFO, visionary leader, …so much responsibility and yet our time and talent is often limited. I appreciate that EDIC is a company that was formed by dentists, for dentists and continues to be governed by dentists who understand my needs.
— Richard Hunt III, DDS | EDIC Insured, EDIC NC Advisory Committee, General Dentist – NC
"Eastern Dentist Insurance Company is the only dental professional liability insurance company in North Carolina created by dentists and managed by dentists. It is your company… Not a national conglomerate."
— John S. Olmsted, DDS, MS | EDIC Insured, EDIC Board Director Adjunct Professor UNC Endodontics – NC
“My first day of work was less than 24 hours away and my previous provider was unable to accommodate me within eight days of my request. I contacted EDIC about my situation and they had me insured before I saw my first patient the next day. I will gladly recommend any dental professional to join EDIC.”
— Cindy Kong, DMD | General Dentist – PA
I switched my malpractice insurance from another company to EDIC a few years ago and my only regret is that I didn’t switch sooner. I find them to be much more approachable/accessible when I have an issue to discuss. Overall, I highly recommend EDIC for your dental professional liability insurance.
— Paula Sones, DDS | General Dentist – MA
I’ve been with EDIC since graduation and I have been very satisfied with their services. The entire EDIC Claims Department at EDIC is very pleasant to work with.
