This is a Real review. All of readers can see my google plus account. Im a real person on this review. I remember there were so bad reviews only 3-4 yrs ago, but suddenly many best reviews started to dilute the bad ones as well as Yelp. Dr..hopkins stands behind patients after any project done! I have been really stressful the past 4-5 years thanks to dr.hopkins and have to leave this review so keep potential victims from this. I feel worth spending 2 hours on this review for everyone! I started his office in 2012 for general dental issues. As other REAL and serious reviewers point out, Heavy bills bomb on you. The office tries to bring visitors as most things as they can-overdrilling, references to implants, root canals, extractions. Yes, if they are needed,It should be a must. I was also such a naive to do everything they were forcing me- extractions, implant, root canal, bone crown and even invisalign and spent over $17,000 between 2012yr and 2013. I had no insurance but paid all-cash. (To be frank w, their service charge is too expensive and the $$ is not worth to cover kindness of their staff. All other dental office staff are similar kind and friendly to this) If the result were satisfactory, I wouldnt need to complain here. Lets see one by one what was happening. ---> Due to characters limitation, See the attachments.

We just moved from the East Coast and this was our 6 year olds first check up with Dr. Hopkins. The hygienist was very friendly and showed my son how to brush his teeth and floss, which is a standard expectation. But the part that made this visit better than the pediatric dentist, whom we visited in the past, is that Dr Hopkins has two TV screens, one for viewing when the patient is lying down. So my son was totally engrossed while wearing the headphones and watching his Disney show and he forgot to squirm while the cleaning was getting done. The wait time in the waiting room was less than 1 minute, which is also nice when dealing with energetic young children. Dr. Hopkins showed up right on time to do the final inspection and we were happy to find no new cavities. At the end of the visit my son was given a dental goodie bag and a token to use in the little toy machine.

DO NOT TRUST THEM ! SCAM ARTIST !!!! I found this place online and based on some of the good reviews I gave them a shot. The worst decision I have ever made ! When I arrived I was talked into making several pre cleaning screening appointments that must be done in order for the doctor to start any work ?? Although I knew exactly what was wrong with my tooth. These so called screenings are a rip off !!! Without being told you are responsible for hundreds of dollars ?? Furthermore the dental assistants are trained to rack up the bill, they literally took over 50 ex rays because she wasnt getting the right angle ??? Long story short after one cleaning treatment I received a huge bill and off course that was after they exhausted my insurance. Dont be fooled by the fake smiles and save your time and money and go else where.

I want to start off by saying that Dr Hopkins ruined my smile for the rest of my life. He convinced my mom when I was younger that I needed veneers that I didnt need. My mom spent over $12,000 on new veneers I got three sets of new veneers. Then he told me we needed to spend more money there and thats when my mom stopped going. I go in there sometimes to ask if theres anything he can do and one time he gave me a very cheap plastic pair of for Two Front Teeth and ended up breaking a week later I said that I needed to pay $200 for the plastic or two front teeth in my mouth. He has told my sister she needed a root canal she didnt need he is a very selfish dentist. All he cares about is money. My smile is now ruined for the rest of my life because of Dr Hopkins.

Best dentist ever. From start to finish. The office staff is outstanding. No waiting. Very informative. Dr Hopkins lets you know every step that will be involved in your dental repair. The dental work itself is of the greatest quality. I had been to 3 dentist prior to visiting his office and left each one confused as to what work I needed done.He made me feel confident and I immediately knew my teeth were in the hands of a real professional. Thank You! Dr. Hopkins and your awesome staff

I was referred to Dr. Hopkins over 20 years ago and have always received the very best dental care. Both Dr. Hopkins and Dr. Kane are highly skilled and caring dentists who use the latest state of the art equipment and procedures. They also have a great team of hygenists, dental assistants and office staff who are amazing! The beach themed office is beautiful and really puts you at ease. My whole family loves team Hopkins-Kane and would absolutely recommend them to anyone!

This place is awesome! Everyone here is super nice. Andrea is my hygienist and she is so sweet, personable, and funny. Dr Hopkins is really nice also and they both always ask me about things in my life and remember what is going on in my life from my last visits. They do a really good job here of not only making sure you have a beautiful smile but also making sure you feel welcomed and comfortable.

Oral health is a cornerstone for total overall health. Dr. Hopkins and his staff are expert and providing patients all the information and tools to they need to take good care of yourself. Dr. Hopkins gives his patients good time to answer any questions and concerns. I appreciate how helpful the entire staff is when you need to schedule appointments or get information about treatment costs.

I had a crown replacment. The pain did not go away after two weeks. The doctor and staff were really nice about giving me multiple readjustments though. I had to take Advil the whole time. Root canal was suggested to me, too. I didnt want to do it. It got better after a month or so. I chew mostly on the other side now. But still comes back now and then....it is bareble.

I enjoyed my visit with you and your office staff today, Jessica cleaned my teeth and did many funny tests with a co-worker, but somehow important for the well being of my teeth. Thank you, and most appreciated the hugs from the staff and my handsome dentist. Love, Lily Daly

I have been a patient of Dr. Hopkins for 15 years and I would highly recommend him. If you are looking for a dentist that will do a great job and also make sure it is as painless as possible you should see Dr Hopkins. His staff is professional and friendly.

The doctor and staff are kind, caring and competent. If I could honestly say that I enjoyed going to the dentist, (which I dont) this would definitely be the dentist that I would enjoy going to. If I have to go to the dentist then this is the one for me.
