TESTIMONIALS
Hear from Our Dentists
I’ve been insured with EDIC since graduating dental school in 2019. EDIC is a wealth of knowledge, and their customer service always goes above and beyond. One of the unique things about EDIC versus other companies is that you’re covered no matter where you work in the state. Your policy follows you from location to location. It’s nice to focus on the clinical side of dentistry knowing that I’m covered and backed up by a great company. Anyone you meet with EDIC always has a smile and they know your name! They make it easy to work with and I’ll be a client for a lifetime!
— Sarah Strickland, DDS | EDIC Insured 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
As a young dentist, I joined EDIC initially because it was clear that a company run by and representing dentists would be the most favorable dynamic with which to secure my coverage. I have had continuous malpractice coverage with EDIC since that time, and they have always been in my corner. The relevant continuing education identified risk management strategies and goals, and timely communication, puts EDIC heads and shoulders above all other dental malpractice companies.
— Nipa Thakkar, DMD, MBS | EDIC Insured, EDIC Board Director, General Dentist – PA
“In the hustle of the MANY things that need to be checked off to start working as a new dentist, EDIC has given me peace of mind by working with me to kick my coverage into effect immediately AND also giving me a grace period to pay for it. As a new dentist, I am so thrilled to be a member of the EDIC family!”
— Tabitha Mohammed Katai, DMD | General Dentist – 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
“EDIC is an organization that provides comprehensive office packages and has an abundant of products and resources “By Dentists, For Dentists” that are necessary for today’s dentist. Its vast network of colleagues is a true testament to EDIC providing services that every dentist needs to have as part of their team. I am thankful to have a partner that is responsive to my needs at a moment’s notice.”
— Cameron Shahbazian, DMD | EDIC Insured, EDIA Board Director General Dentist, MA
“I’ve watched other colleagues navigate their malpractice insurers with lack of communication and guidance. When you call EDIC, you are instantly connected with someone who can answer your questions. When it matters most, they are there for you.”
— Michael Mayr, DMD | EDIC Insured, EDIC Board Liaison, General Dentist – MA
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 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, Past EDIC Board Director, Adjunct Professor UNC Endodontics – 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.
