Experiencia fantástica: Dr Sheppard is great he really listens and explains everything into detail and shows you what needs to be done. He is great with dental anxiety and really shows he cares

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff, customer service is awesome

Experiencia fantástica: Great place.

Experiencia fantástica: I thought most dentists were sadists till I met Dr. Sheppard yesterday. I had a bad tooth that had been causing me pretty bad pain for a few weeks. He was able to see me within a day of calling and extracted the tooth. 24 hours later pain free. I can't thank you enough.

Experiencia negativa: My husband was dismissed. He was sent a certified letter. He was not given an opportunity to tell his side of the story. Yes, he used the f bomb several times, but not at the hygienist. Bit because of the pain after she tripped on the x-ray cord and yanked the x-ray out of his mouth. I loved going there but in good conscious I can't go if my husband is not welcome.

Experiencia fantástica: The only thing bad is they are no longer excepting optima health medicaid, Because the insurance switched up. Tryst when i say, when that is the only thing wrong, that's great for a Hopewell business!

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Sheppard and staff are great. Cute little office right in the center of Hopewell. Administrative staff are so kind and helpful. I recommended family and friends to this place because they made me feel so safe even when I had a wisdom tooth pulled.

Experiencia negativa: Not sure where this practice went wrong for consideration of it's patients. I got an immediate appt to see the dentist on 3/31/22 because I expected that a tooth that had broke off was infected. I was having issues with my lymph node swelling, stiff neck, and face pain all on the right side of my body. Unsure of the exact culprit, I decided to start with the tooth. Got XRays at Hopewell Family Dentistry and was told I didn't have an infection, but I needed a root canal. I wasn't prescribed any medication. I was referred out to VCU. I asked the hygienist does this practice not do root canals anymore? She stated that dependent upon where they were located, no. I was still confused because I had received a root canal 6 months previous from them. VCU was not taking referrals whenever I called. I asked to be put on the short call back list for an extraction. Still not satisfied, on 4/1/22 I went to check and see if I had an ear infection. No ear infection. Lymph node still swollen, face still hurting. At this point I'm petrified about what could be wrong. I'm think now I need a head and neck CT. The pain is ubearable causing me to take OTC pain meds back to back. I did not like taking so much medication with no real fix so I go to another dentist in Chester 4/7/22, get more XRays, and low and behold my tooth is infected. I'm immediately put on antibiotics for 7 days. This dentist did not accept medicaid, so I had to pay $2000+ to schedule a root canal. I received a call back to come in the Hopewell Family Denistry on 4/15/22 for an extraction, what I was put on the short call list for. I get to the office on time and wait 40 minutes to be told the dentist does not have time to do my extraction today. At this point I just got up and left. My overall experience for the past 2 weeks have been garbage. I'm not sure if it's the fact that I had medicaid or what. If not wanting to bill through medicaid was the issue, I could have paid whatever was needed out of pocket as I did with the other dentist. I will NEVER utilize this business in the future. A complete waste of time, along with jeopardizing my health. These are the reasons I don't tell health care businesses that I'm RN, with an active license, so I can see how my course of treatment will play out.

Experiencia fantástica: Dr.Sheppard and his staff are amazing. I needed a Root Canal and during my procedure I was very nervous but they explained everything to me and took it slow to make me feel comfortable. I am very pleased with this office, and would recommend them to anyone !

Experiencia fantástica: Chipped a tooth this year, made an appointment and was seen within the week. This isn’t my first visit either, I went last year and really have been please with their work.

Will be visiting them every yearr! Keep up the amazing work

Being a Viet Nam veteran I am also appreciative of Doctor Sheppzrds commitment to veterans and the community. Also to Sarah, thank you for kind, and professional care. I know you had your hands full with me. Sorry about that. Last visit was long wait. DR Sheppard seemed rushed not much interaction.
