Job Description
About Knowles Smith and Associates Founded in 1985 by Dr. Michael Knowles in St. Pauls, North Carolina, our practice began as a small, community-focused dental office. Committed to enhancing dental care for our rural community, we pioneered the concept of the "Family Dental Group Practice," centralizing care under one roof by bringing in specialists directly to our office. This model has allowed us to provide comprehensive treatment without the need to refer patients to distant locations, ensuring better continuity of care.
In 1992, Dr. Terrance Smith, a prosthodontist, joined the practice, leading to our name change to Knowles, Smith and Associates, PA, though we operate as Village Family Dental. Over the years, our practice expanded, opening our second office in Hope Mills in 1993, and our third in Fayetteville in 1999. Dr. Faith McGibbon, a pediatric dentist, joined in 1994 and became a partner in 2002.
Today, our Partnership Group includes Dr. Brad Ryan, Dr. Grant Wiles, Dr. Mit Patel, Dr. Jordan Olsen, and Dr. Anuj James, who serves as Managing Partner. In 2002, Southeastern Dental Specialists and Dental Health Associates became part of our family, and in 2018, we introduced Village Kids to our growing network. Most recently, we welcomed Cape Fear Oral Surgery in Fayetteville and Warr Pediatric Dental Associates in High Point, further expanding our reach and commitment to exceptional dental care for families in North Carolina.
