Locally Owned. Personally Committed.
Dental Care in Midlothian
For more than three decades, we’ve grown alongside the families who’ve trusted us with their care. Many of our patients have been with us since our Cloverhill Dentistry days, and now we’re meeting their children and grandchildren. Whether you’re new to the Midlothian area or a lifelong Richmond, VA resident, you’ll always be greeted with the same warmth and respect that have defined us from the start.
Trusted by Midlothian Families for 30 Years
Woodlake Dental Center started as Cloverhill Dentistry in 1994, just Dr. Gallegos, one assistant, and a dream of building something different.
The timing wasn't ideal. Two young children at home. A bank loan. Used equipment. A tiny leased space in Midlothian. But sometimes the best decisions are the ones that don't make perfect sense on paper.
What began as a single operatory slowly became two, then four. By 2003, we'd outgrown our space entirely and doubled our footprint. In 2007, we moved to our current location and became Woodlake Dental Center, reflecting the community we proudly serve.
Today, three decades later, we're a team of three dentists, two hygienists, and five amazing support staff.
Woodlake remains what it's always been: locally owned, relationship-driven, and accountable to no one but our patients. We're dentists who live in this community, send our kids to our local schools, and see our patients at the grocery store. You see the same faces at every visit.
That's not just our history, it's our promise for the next thirty years.

Jose E. Gallegos, D.D.S.
