Dr. Eric Lewis grew up in Magnolia, MS (Pike County), and graduated from Parklane Academy in nearby McComb. He went on to earn his bachelor of science degree from Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, LA in May 1985.
Dr. Lewis continued his education at the University of Mississippi School of Dentistry in Jackson, MS, where he earned his doctorate of dental medicine in May 1989, graduating Cum Laude. He then completed a four-year oral and maxillofacial surgery residency at the University of Cincinnati, where he received advanced training in anesthesia, orthognathic surgery, facial trauma, and dental implants. During his residency, he gained extensive experience treating a wide range of conditions affecting the mouth, teeth, jaws, and face. Dr. Lewis completed his residency in June 1993 and has received numerous honors throughout his academic journey.
After completing his residency, Dr. Lewis returned to his hometown in Pike County, MS. Later that same year, he and his wife, Lisa, established Southwest Center for Facial and Oral Surgery — the only oral and maxillofacial surgery center in South Mississippi. In addition to offering a full range of surgical services, Dr. Lewis has undergone specialized training in dental implant surgery. He collaborates closely with each patient's restorative dentist to ensure the highest quality outcomes and personalized care.
Dr. Lewis is a distinguished fellow of the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and the American Dental Society of Anesthesiology, as well as a diplomate of the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. He is also an active member of the American Dental Association, the Mississippi Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons, and the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. Over the years, Dr. Lewis has held several leadership roles, including chief of staff and chief of surgery at Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center and president of the Mississippi Society of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons.
Dr. Lewis and his wife of 36 years, Lisa, have three children — Erica (Hebert), Regan (Theresa), and Seth — and one grandson, Lex. Together, they enjoy traveling, spending quality time with their loved ones, and relaxing by the saltwater whenever they can.
Professional and courtesy
Dr. Eric Lewis and his medical team are top of the line in my personal and professional opinion. I am a RN by trade, and we tend to be super judgemental on Healthcare. So, when I say that they are courteous, professional, caring, skilled, and provide the best patient experience possible, you can trust it!!! Many thanks to this valuable team!!!!!
I’m very pleased if I need surgery again I will certainly come back again
Dr. Lewis is an excellent doctor that really cares about his patients. I had an implant with zero pain. His staff are professional and friendly and always helpful.
Dr. Lewis is great. He’s got a great bedside manner and his nursing staff is top notch. The ladies up front have all been great to deal with too. Although I’m only about 1/2 through the implant process, I would highly recommend Dr. Lewis.
