ABOUT US
Founded in 2012 by Dr. James Smouse, Cherry Log Oral Surgery was established to provide comprehensive oral surgery care to residents in the North Georgia mountains. This pristine environment provides the perfect setting for focusing on community-based patient care. Dr. Smouse retired in late 2017, passing the mission of the practice to Dr. John Pritchett to continue well into the future.
