PATIENT REVIEWS

In general, I don’t do many reviews, especially for Dentists because for many years. I always ended up finding the ones you don’t want to go to. I have a great fear of going to the Dentist because I have had so many bad experiences in the past. Finding Dr. Amy Viachakis is like finding a Gold Mine. This Dentist knows what she’s doing and is very skilled and professional in her profession. I’m still shocked by the great job that she did on my crown that they had to fix from the last place I went. Thank you, Doc. Henry

Loved it. Amy and her staff are so friendly and professional. I was seen right away and was able to get a teeth cleaning during my lunch break! I was in and out of there in a little over an hour since I was a new patient I had to fill out paperwork; however, I think if I didn’t it definitely would’ve been within an hour. My teeth feel great and super clean. Best dental experience. Would recommend.

I wish I good give Dr. V a higher rating, and her whole staff!! This is one of the most professional practices I know when it comes to complete dentistry. I was referred to Dr. V by my oral surgeon. I cannot express how happy I am for following though with making my appt. with Dr. V. She is great and delivers painless dentistry. Love her and her staff. High praise to Michael for never forgetting a name! So very welcoming. Love this place.

This is the BEST DENTIST IN TOWN! I have been going here since they opened and I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Every other dentist I have had made my gums bleed and made me feel scared to go to the dentist. But Dr. Amy Vlachakis and the rest of the staff really make you feel at home. I just recently got my wisdom teeth removed at her office, and I am healing so fast! I would recommend this dentist to anyone who was asking for “The Best Dentist in Town”, because they really are!

Love love love this place I been coming for a few years now and I can honestly say I will definitely continue to come the staff is so welcoming, Laura the Dental hygienist is very friendly and always does a great job with my son! My husband and I also get our cleaning done and we’re very happy and satisfied! My husband had to do a few things to have a great smile and now he can’t stop smiling Thanks Dr.V for the awesome work! Thanks staff keeping doing a great job!

Dr. Vlachakis, Michael, and the staff there are so friendly and professional. They made my two year old twins’ first ever dentist experience a really fun and ‘rewarding’ one. Now my whole family has been happily going there for 2+ years. Their private dental insurance plan is also very affordable for someone like us who are small business owners. The facility has always been so clean, charming, and the view from the dentist chair is just spectacular if you love trees and greens. We will be going to Dr V’s for a long long time.

Seeing Dr. Amy was truely a breeze. My old filling crumbled apart yesterday morning, after calling, they were able to squeeze me into an appointment at 11 that day, and once I got there I was freaking out. I HATE going to the dentist like anyone else who frequents cavities. She was new, so it was even more nerve racking. Dr. Amy and her staff could not have been nicer during the whole visit. Not to mention, Dr. Amy is AWESOME at her job! I have never recieved a shot that was completely painless, I didn’t even feel it. Not to mention, after shaving down the old filling, re-doing the filling (and finding a cavity underneather and fixing that), she was able to get me in and out in 1 hour.. with no pain. She will be my go to dentist while I am living in Houston, and I HIGHLY recommend her!

I have great anxiety when it comes to dental work, even cleanings. Dr. V made and her team made me feel extremely comfortable. The staff is very friendly and the appointments run on time. The office is very nice and the views are very calming. They go out of their way to make sure that you have a great experience. I just got two filling using the laser technology and they were completely painless. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great dental practice.

I had a great experience today. I called the day before and was able to make an appointment. When I checked in, they gave me an iPad to fill in my information, which was very convenient. The entire staff was courteous and efficient. I was in and out for my first exam and a cleaning in about an hour. They offered a quick follow up for an issue that needs to be addressed and provided me with a treatment plan that included the prices, so I know what to expect. I highly recommend!

Dr. V. is great (well she still is a dentist). I feel that she goes out of her way to treat me special and does everything in her power to make the visit “easy”. The offices are super clean and the staff is extra nice. They do a great job of reminding me to come to the appointment and I recommend her to all my friends. The office is also new so all the equipment is current and very helpful. Go Dr. V.

Dr.V and her staff for so welcoming, and very kind! her office is state of the art and super clean. She has a great demeanor with young children as I took my 22 month old son there for his first dental cleaning, she was very gentle, and Took her time during his check up. We felt very comfortable there, as I was so impressed with her attending to my child’s needs , I’ve booked my whole family dental cleaning appointments there, we are very thankful we found Dr. V

On the day I traveled from Berrien Springs, MI to Houston, TX, I realized I had cracked a back tooth. I located a dental office from a list of providers emailed to me by insurance company. I made an appointment for the day after I arrived. Upon entering the office, I didn’t have a good feeling. I left after waiting half an hour. THANKFULLY, my sister recommended Healthy Smiles Family Dentistry. I called and was told they accepted my plan and was able to get an emergency appointment for the following day. From the moment I opened their office door and was pleasantly greeted by Michael, I KNEW this was where I wish I had gone first. Thank you Michael, Jessica, and Dr. V. for the wonderful treatment in your office. By the way, my broken tooth that I had self-diagnosed, actually only needed a FILLING!! 🙂 I HIGHLY recommend Healthy Smiles Family Dentistry if you want to be treated with kindness and superb service… with a smile and great views of the Houston area.

I was in extreme pain and found out that Healthy Smiles is located in the next building. I did not have to drive or go very far, so I thought why not give it a shot. I called and explained my situation and took me in right away. Everyone is so professional, friendly and such an inviting atmosphere. I had not been to a dentist in a long time, because of some frightful experiences in my past. I can honestly say Dr. Vlachakis and her assistant are AWESOME!!!. I have my second appointment next week and will continue to take care of my teeth from now on as long as she is going to be my DENTIST 🙂

I took my now 5 year old for her first appointment six months ago and she loved it so much! The staff made it fun and quickly put her at ease! In fact, she had such a great time that my 3 year old was ready to get in the chair too! They both had an appointment today and they both enjoyed it! I’m so grateful they like going to the dentist!

The best place to have any dental work done! I have been back on multiple ocasions to have my teeth cleaned along with other dental work, and I have had nothing but the best service possible. The staff is amazing from the moment you walk into the office to the last second when you walk out the door. They truly make you feel like family!

My wife found Healthy Smiles knowing my fear of dentist and my needing sedation to get thru the process. Michael greeted us upon our arrival and was very friendly and professional. Made my initial visit welcoming. All their services are of five star quality. The staff is extremely pleasant and Dr. Vlachakis is very nice and professional. I can say I will go back to her many times more. I found their office to be very clean and impressive, Equipped with all latest technologies in dentistry. Thank You Dr. V for caring so much and making a big baby at ease.

I am admittedly terrified of going to the dentist. Unfortunately I chipped one of my front teeth making it very embarrassing to smile any more. So I had to see a dentist. I saw great reviews of this office and gave them a chance. I am very happy I did! The calm, friendly atmosphere put me at ease and the fast service made it easy to deal with. Dr. V and her staff are great!!! I couldn’t be more pleased with the work. She gave me my smile back!

Great experience from start to finish. The entire staff is friendly, professional, and accommodating to your dental needs. Its obvious that your comfort is a top priority throughout your visit and each step of my visit was explained beforehand, so I was aware what to expect. These things are very important when dealing with a service like dental maintenance. Healthy Smiles has secured a repeat customer in myself and my family.

I’ve never been greeted so graciously than when Michael welcomed me upon arriving for my appointment. From the minute I walked in, I was made to feel right at home and I knew immediately that I would be coming back! Everyone was very professional without being stiff and that is very important to me. Dr. Vlachakis was very thorough in walking me through my options for upgrading my smile. Her assistant Cecilia and Hygienist DeDee were polite and very attentive to making me feel as comfortable as I could be during the x-rays and cleaning. I am very happy to have made such a great decision on my first try. As difficult as it is to keep up with dentist appointments, it makes it much easier when you can look forward to seeing great people, with great attitudes who treat you like a good friend, not a client. Highly recommend!!!

Is it weird that I want to schedule dental appointments just so I can say hi to Dr V? She’s that cool. I had a cleaning yesterday, and needed a filling, and her team has such a polite touch and she uses such advanced techniques (now they do fillings with lasers, it was cool) that the appointment just flew by. Her husband Michael runs the front office and Dr V seems to effortlessly manage going from patient to patient with charm and care. I also went to her for some TMJ therapy (the Tru-Denta side of her practice) and my headaches are definitely fewer and farther between and when I do get them I know how to manage them better. Parking is easy at the building and Dr V always seems to have a convenient time for an appointment. She’s the best.

Very pleasant experience. Front desk staff very friendly, professional and welcoming. The hygienist incredibly gentle and attentive. The actual dentist was very pleasant, she listened to my concerns, did an excellent job numbing me. I am very sensitive and hate going to the dentist. However this experience has helped make me less afraid of dental procedures. I am scheduled to go back and have not an ounce of anxiety. I highly recommend this facility

Dr. V and staff are amazing! I’m often left disappointed after a doctors appointment because I often leave feeling like a number rather than a person. But this time I was pleasantly surprised! Michael greeted me with a warm smile and instantly made me feel welcome and cared about. The lady who took my x-rays was kind and gentle. Dr. V came and introduced herself and she was upbeat and sweet. And Dee came to do the cleaning and she was awesome, very knowledgeable and kind. I got my treatment plan and am planning on going back soon and I will also be bringing my son there as well. This office has a great atmosphere and good energy as well as awesome hours for working people. If you want to be treated like you are a person come here. I’m glad I found them.

I truly had an awesome dental experience. As a dental hygienist myself, I tend to be picky & sometimes overly critical. Dr V and her staff where all amazing. From the beautiful welcoming smile upon entry through having two fillings replaced and a cleaning I can honestly say it was all handled perfectly & professionally. I was in & out in a timely manner while still made to feel special & cared for. There was absolutely no discomfort at any point and I actually look forward to my next check-up. I highly recommended this office of excellence.

I need to first explain that it’s literally been years since I had seen a dentist due to a very bad experience I had while living in NY. It was enough to not look for another, my mistake of course. My wife and I had decided recently that we really needed to forget that experience amd get back to good dental hygiene practices. Well I cracked a tooth and absolutely needed to find a dentist in Houston…no more putting it off. I looked for a dentist that was fairly close and showed good reviews and fell under my insurance. I really liked what I heard about Healthy Smiles and Dr. V and contacted them. They were so understanding and got me in that day. Needless to say the tooth, back left molar, had to be extracted. After about a week my cheek had swollen up considerably and got infected, it was very painful. I contacted them and again they got me in that day to do whatever they could to help. Their understanding has impressed me considerably and I can say without a doubt that we’ve found our new lifelong dentist. Dr. V, Jessica and the rest of the staff have renewed my confidence and faith in dentists. If more dentists treated their patients like they did then less people would dread visiting the dentist. I highly recommend Healthy Smiles to people of all ages and dental maladies. You will not regret it.

This is hands down the best dentist and dentist office I’ve ever been to! It was such a fantastic overall experience that I couldn’t help but be in a great mood as I left and was actually looking forward to my next visit. Dr. V and her staff are beyond accommodating and knowledgeable, especially during procedures. I also really appreciated that Dr. V called a few days after that to see how my new fillings and I were doing. The customer service is simply amazing: I’ve never waited more than a few minutes before being called back, they let you pick a Pandora station to listen to during the appointment, and then they give you a hot towel for your face/mouth at the end to top it all off. And talk about the view! Their office is on the 15th floor overlooking a sea of trees that will make any anxious dentist-goer feel at ease. Highly recommended! 🙂

I hate going to the dentist! But who loves it?!?! The entire staff made sure I was completely comfortable throughout my visit. They are very tech savvy which was nice because I go my results immediately. They are very good at explaining things and made me feel comfortable going forward with a plan for my dentistry needs. I believe going to the dentist is not fun at all but since the staff made me feel so welcome and comfortable, it makes it a bit easier. Not to mention they all had great personalities!!!!

I went in for a cleaning and to take care of a cavity and I gotta say it was one of the best experiences I have had at a dentist office. The atmosphere of the office is so calm that it makes the nerves go away. The staff is friendly and quick. Dr. V is a great dentist and very friendly which makes you feel calm despite being a little nervous from being at the dentist. Oh and the view from the chair you sit in is pretty amazing.

My sister goestook to Healthy Smiles. She recommended Dr.V. knowing my fear of dentist and my needing sedation to get thru the process. Michael greeted us upon our arrival and was very friendly and professional. Made my initial visit welcoming. All their services are of five star quality. The staff is extremely pleasant and Dr. Vlachakis is very nice and professional. I can say I will go back to her many times more. I found their office to be very clean and impressive, Equipped with all latest technologies in dentistry. Thank You Dr. V for caring so much and making a big baby at ease.

Great location, great staff. First visit and everything was what you’d expect a 21st century dentistry to be. Only saw Dr Val for a few minutes cause it was just cleaning and then set up another appointment, but from first impressions – we were convinced enough to change dentists. The support staff knew their way around and I didn’t feel like I needed the actual dentist for basic cleaning. They offer an inhouse payment for services like cleaning and it’s competitive certainly compared with our former dentist. Good show all round.

I had a fantastic experience with Dr. V. There was no wait time. Michael was very helpful to me as a new patient to explain my plans’ benefits. The technicians took my x-ray efficiently. And Dr. V was great as well listening/answering to my questions and examining my conditions. Highly recommended to anyone. Btw, congrats on the new baby, Dr. V.!

Dr Vlachakis and her staff rock!! I’ve been going to Dr V for a little over a year now and I could not be more pleased or confident in the attention and care I’ve received. This is a full service practice that uses the most advanced technology yet treats you like you’re part of the family. How many dentist do you know that still follow up with a phone call, post procedure to see how you are doing and make sure everything is ok. Personalized attention, professional, and a very friendly staff. I would definitely recommend Dr. Vlachakis. Try it once and you’ll keep going back!

I have been very happy with the service I received at Healthy Smiles Dental. For many years I had received conflicting advice about a dental issue and had been reluctant to select a treatment plan. Dr. Vlachakis was able to use a new kind of technology to visually explain the problem to me, and was then able to take steps to correct it. Improvements could be seen from measurements taken during the process, which built my confidence in the approach. I then switched to Healthy Smiles for my regular cleaning visits, and I continue to be very pleased with how the office is run.

I am so glad that I found Dr. V and her wonderful staff. I was in a lot of pain when I came in the first time and she made me feel very comfortable and relieved my pain right away. I am not one to enjoy going to the dentist, but that has changed since going to see Dr. V. Her office is very relaxing and beautiful, they have a wonderful view of the Houston skyline! I never have to wait to be seen – they take you back right way. They even offer early morning appointments. After my procedure Dr. V called and followed up to make sure I was doing ok, I was very appreciative of that. I would recommend her to all anyone looking for a wonderful dentist – Healthy Smiles is a five star office and goes the extra mile for their customers. Thank you Amy, Wilma and Michael your office is one of a kind!

I had a great experience with Healthy Smiles! I decided to get porcelain veneers after many years of having a gap in my front teeth. The team at Healthy Smiles made me feel comfortable with the decision and were very professional in each of my three visits. The office was very clean and had an incredible view. Dr. V was very professional and personable throughout the entire process. She really took the time to answer all my questions so that I felt comfortable with the process of getting veneers. I never felt rushed in her office. I would definitely recommend Dr. V and Healthy Smiles to my family and friends.

I found Healthy Smiles after checking my insurance directory and online reviews. All their services are of five star quality. Dr. Vlachakis is very nice and professional. I found their office to be very impressive and equipped with all latest technologies in dentistry. For every visit I had so far, I haven’t wait for more than 5 minutes. I especially appreciate Dr. Vlachakis following up with a phone call after a visit to make sure everything is ok. My only concern about Healthy Smiles is that they are still fairly new. I hope their great customer services and friendliness continues as they keep growing.
