Hoek Esthetic Family Dentistry

When it came time to get a filling, Dr. Hoek did an amazing job with my fear of needles. She was calm and relaxed and got me through the procedure in one piece. I really appreciate her and all the advice she has to offer about how to keep my teeth healthy. I would recommend her to anyone on the search for a new dentist.

Wow. I'm blown away, really. Best first impression ever! And during a pandemic!

I've been going to the same dental office for about 10 years now and really liked them but it took 6-8 months to get an appointment rescheduled and, when you schedule 6 months out anyway, stuff comes up. I can't go 10-12 months with no cleaning, I have a lot of tartar build up. So sadly, I needed to find a place that could accommodate schedule changes, I travel a lot.

So, during COVID, I began communicating with Hoek Family Dentistry and spoke to a nice lady up front named Jackie who quickly called me back after my email request, gathered my info, and sent me the new patient paperwork to fill out and send back so they could request my records and have everything ready for me when they reopened to patients.

I arrived today and everything was filed and taken care of for me. Their office is in Red Mill Commons Shopping Center by the Wendy's, Cold Stone and Starbucks. It's pristine and clean with all new fancy equipment and comfy chairs and a nice waiting room. They're observing all COVID-19 recommended health precautions and took my temp, had me answer the questionnaire, and everyone was masked.

My hygienist, Stacey called me back within 5 minutes of my scheduled appointment time and, since it was our first meeting, sat down face to face with me so I could talk to her about any issues, concerns, questions and my preferences. She took X-rays with this new handheld instant X-Ray machine where they stay in the room with you and then we got down to business. I have some bone loss and a receding lower gum line I was worried about so she really looked at it and decided to numb me to do the cleaning she needed to do. I'm glad, I think I'd have cried.

Our appointment took two solid hours but I don't think my teeth have ever been this clean. I have gotten no less than 5 compliments on them today since my cleaning about how white and beautiful they look! Stacey also stopped to show me with a mirror what she was doing and educated me on the X-rays she took and reviewed my teeth with me. It was fabulous. I have never, ever, had anyone take that amount of time with me.

At the end, my dental exam was done by Dr. Kristen Maddux who was equally as friendly and welcoming. She was kind to Stacey and listened to all her findings with respect, agreed with her on them, and then they asked me to come back in 3-weeks for a no-cost shorter visit to check and see if my lower gums look better due to the cleaning and/or if I'll need a referral.

As if all that wasn't enough, Stacey called me a few hours later just to make sure I was OK and wasn't having any issues because she really did some work on me! Wow. A++++

I was nervous about going to another office after so long and loving the place I was at, but I needn't have worried. If I'd have known what was waiting for me here, I'd have come long ago.

I absolutely hate going to the Dentist and honestly have not seen a Dentist since 1999. I felt like since it had been so long I needed to see one so I chose Hoek Esthetic Dentistry and Im so glad I did. From the moment I walked in I was greeted and made to feel welcome which helped to ease my anxiety. Everything was explained in its entirety and the staff was so helpful and empathetic. I would highly recommend Hoek Dentistry to anyone who maybe anxious about obtaining any kind of dental care or who is looking for a new dentist. I will definitely be back for my 6 month cleaning since I know it won’t be a horror show!

I have been to many dentists because I have always felt very nervous about this process like many others. I did NOT have this feeling at all with Meredith, she truly has a great chair side manner & makes you feel relaxed. I love going now and I never thought I would say that. Meredith does such a great job on cleanings that I don't even want to drink red wine :) I also like that her staff is very friendly & professional. They call you to remind you of appointments & I need that. LOVE Hoek Family Dentistry

Dr. Hoek is amazing! My fiance had a filling from a previous dentist fall out suddenly. He was in pain and needed an emergency appointment. She was able to get him in a half hour after his phone call to her office. He was so impressed with speed and quality of the procedure that he is now switching to her practice for future dental needs. Her prices are also extremely competitive when comparing other VA Beach practices.

I love Hoek Dentistry. Dr. Maddux is amazing! Attentive and kind. Great staff and clean facility! Great teeth whitening and other services available too if needed.

What a great experience my first visit has been! Sam is a wonderful hygienist, Dr.Hoek is extremely knowledgeable & has a soothing presence.
I’m so happy I was referred to Hoek Family Dentistry.

I absolutely love Dr. Hoek and the entire staff at Hoek Esthetic Dentistry. They really care about you as an individual AND they are exceptionally good in their profession. I had to have a filling replaced today and was in and out in 45 minutes with ZERO pain. I highly recommend this practice.

I have been seeing Dr. Hoek since last year and I will definitely recommend her to everybody I know including my own family. She does a great service. I enjoy seeing her every 6 months. Her office is very clean and her staff including Dr. Hoek is outstanding and they all do a wonderful job.

Monday was our 2nd time for the kids and I going to Hoek Esthetic Family Dentistry and I must say Dr. Hoek is by far the best Dentist out there. My kids dread going to the dentist because of their last dentist they had. So when I heard there was a new place opening up by our new home I figured I would give it a try. My kids loved her. My son who is 13 hates needles and his first time there ended up having to get a cavity filled. He didn't even know she was going to shoot him up. She had him close his eyes and told him she had to squirt some liquid onto his gum after she had numbed the gum with gel before hand. So he did and she injected him six or seven times. He never knew till later that night when I told him. His response was man she's good mom I never felt the needle. Now they enjoy going to the dentist and can't wait for their next visit. 5 thumbs up for Dr. Hoek she is great!!
