I first met Dr. Weir while he was an undergraduate dental student and I was an Assistant Professor in the Department of Periodontics at Indiana university. I got to know him really well as his periodontal adviser during his periodontal rotation after his graduation, during his General Practice Residency.
Doug was always concerned about his patients’ well being and what he could do to deliver the absolute best care for them, ensuring that they got the ideal result. Because of his inquiring mind and pursuit of excellence I was not at all surprised when he went on to pursue post-graduate dental studies, graduating with a degree in the specialty of Prosthodontics. We have kept in contact over the years, and he has been to Arizona on several occasions both for continuing education and to lecture.
I have also personally visited his office in Indiana for a week to learn from him the intricacies of his specialty and to observe him treating patients–an eye-opening experience!
Dr. Weir is, without doubt, a consummate professional in his field, and his patients are the beneficiaries of his skills, wisdom, attention to detail, and personal care.
Dr Doug Weir is a phenomenal prosthodontist. He is very passionate about his speciality and treats patients with a very high standard of care. I especially appreciate his patience, attention to detail and willingness to make patients’ quality of life better. Southern Indiana is very fortunate to have such an experienced and great practitioner. Dr Weir has a great desire to give back to our dental community. I’ve listened to several of his lectures and it’s inspiring to see him train and mentor dentists in our area. You might say this is his way of “passing the torch”, his wealth of knowledge and expertise will live on in the next generation of dentist and the patients will be the ultimate benefactor. I’ve witnessed Dr Weir spend countless hours doing his own lab work because he genuinely enjoys it and is extremely dedicated to delivering the highest quality prosthesis to his patient. This is especially impressive in this age of dentistry where it is common place for practitioners to outsource their cases for fabrication in a private lab.

Dr. Weir is top notch! He is very passionate about each and every one of his patients. His knowledge of prosthodontics is phenomenal and he is just genuinely a friendly guy. I have spoken with many of his patients and they all have very kind words to say and express the utmost respect for him! Very honest and trustworthy!
A passion for providing the highest quality in denture construction complemented by years of continuing education. A compassionate, yet modern clinical approach that benchmarks \”Excellence in Dentures! \” These qualities represent the trademarks for the standard of care provided by Dr. Douglas Weir. Patients wanting life-changing results with the construction of their dentures seek the services rendered by Dr. Weir. He creates a patient’s smile by setting one tooth at a time with his patients actively involved in developing their perfect smile. Patients travel long distances to have Dr. Weir improve their smiles and chewing capabilities with new dentures, partials, and implant supported dentures. This is a unique opportunity to have a skilled denture prosthodontist complete dentures in two to three days with Dr. Weir performing each and every step. Dr. Weir is extremely knowledgeable and a master of his profession. Linda Zimmerman DDS

I feel very fortunate to call Dr. Weir a Prosthodontic colleague. I met Dr. Weir a little over 2 years ago. At the time, he was deep into understanding every facet of “Fixed Hybrid” Implant Prosthodontics. I was in awe of his understanding and drive to have all of his questions answered in an effort to provide the absolute best quality of dentistry to his patients. Since that time, Dr. Weir has served as an incredible mentor to me. I consult him on some of my own Prosthodontic cases. His passion, knowledge, and skill for our shared specialty makes him a truly great Prosthodontist, and someone I aspire to be like.
Dr. Weir is a very skilled specialist to whom I refer a wide variety of patients often. He has mastered the ability to listen closely to patient’s needs and desires and then formulate a well thought out plan. He communicates these plans well to patients and referring doctors and follows through with a wonderful result. From difficult immediate denture and implant retained prosthetic cases to relines, tooth replacements and multiple implant maintenance procedures, he fine tunes his work and makes precision post-op appointments as needed. Patients travel great distances and have continued to see him over many years in order to enjoy great specialty dental care. In addition, he is a kind and generous colleague who is always willing to think through potential solutions and share his vast knowledge. I consider him a great teacher, a friend and a great asset to our dental community.

I highly recommend Dr Weir. He has a relaxed chairside manner, educates his patients, & presents them with viable options. I have sent several of my patients with challenging cases and all were very pleased. He also doesn’t hesitate to share his knowledge with the referring doc and keeps you informed during the entire treatment. I would send my own family to see Dr Weir. One of the best specilasts in the state, he genuinely cares about his patients and their well-being.
Dr. Weir is an exceptional prosthodontist! Along with being a leader in clinical advancements, he has always upheld the highest level of ethics and compassion. He is a very generous person, and has always being very open to sharing his knowledge and helping others grow.

Dr. Doug Weir is possibly the most skilled removable prosthodontist in the state of Indiana. While, like other dentists, I have been the lucky recipient of his dental work, his true passion has evolved over the years to providing prosthetic treatment for patients needing complete dentures.

I would like to endorse Dr. C Douglas Weir, D.D.S, MSD., a highly knowledgeable and go to prosthodontist. I have known Dr. Weir for thirty-five years. If a dental practitioner needs any information concerning conventional dentures, tooth supported overdentures or implants supported dentures, he is the person to seek out. His care and quality stands alone.
Dear colleagues,
It has been 6 years since I have known Dr. Doug Weir, as both, a close friend and colleague. I was first introduced to Doug from a mutual colleague who spoke volumes regarding his clinical ability for dentistry but as important his character, integrity as a person.
Doug is one of the most disciplined, extremely bright and a gifted clinician. He has shared his expertise in all phases of dentistry with me on a personal level and a study club of 15 doctors of whom I am the directed of this advanced education.
Doug has a passion and drive to excel with removable prosthetic for debilitated dental patients. If I or any of my colleagues need advice or direction we all reach out to Doug for his unselfish guidance.
It is with great pleasure and a honor to recommend Doug Weir as a deserving candidate for your organization and would prove to be an indispensable member.

Dr. Weir is in a class of his own when it comes to his expertise, professionalism and integrity. I have had the opportunity to listen to him speak numerous times as a keynote speaker as a leader in the field of prosthodontics and dentistry in general. Although Dr. Weir is a true perfectionist, his empathy and passion for the care of his patients is unparalleled.
