PATIENT REVIEWS

I had my 6 month cleaning today. Christi, the hygienist, did a great job! I usually hate cleanings but she made me feel very relaxed. Dr. Downs came in and checked my teeth. She has a wonderful chair side manner! A great overall experience from office staff to hygienist and dentist. Would definitely recommend this office!

Best dentist and dental hygienist in Virginia Beach! Just left Downs Dental and had my regular check up and everyone was wearing masks and following procedures for keeping everyone safe. I see Christie as our dental hygienist and she is very friendly and great at cleaning and checking for any issues. She consistently does an outstanding job. The staff is always welcoming and friendly. The office is well organized and very nicely decorated. It was a busy morning but everything kept moving in a timely manner. My husband and I have been going to Downs Dental for some time and highly recommend Dr Downs and Christie!

I had my first appointment with Dr. Downs a little over a week ago and the truth is that I have never had such a caring, knowledgeable, and committed dentist until I came here. The office staff is absolutely amazing and they all treat you like you are their own family here. I will be taking my son here for his next dentist’s appointment. I could not have asked for a better dentist!

I have never done a review on anything in my life until now. The reason I am now is because I am extremely happy. I called scheduled and seen the doctor the same day. I was apprehensive to see a dentist because I chew tobacco and I had some problems with my teeth. I’m a grown man I know I need to quit tobacco and didn’t need a lecture she was kind and courteous I would definitely recommend to any and everybody. The staff was unbelievable like I was part of their family.

By far the best experience(s) I have ever had at any dentist office. Everyone person in this office is AMAZING! They give you great information and look at all the available options to make sure you can make an informed decision on you dental health with your wallet in mind. I’ll be a “lifer” with Downs Dental Care. No one is touching my teeth and gums except for them! Hands down the BEST in Hampton Roads!!! Thank you!!! I actually look forward to the dentist now!

We found out about Dr.Downs from our daughter . Needed a new dentist and waited till I needed one she took me as a walk I next day got me in and took care of my needs. She is very down home easy to talk to and keeps you aware of all she us doing. The rest of the staff follows her lead and present themselves very professional but treat you like family. Would I recommend them , I do every chance I get.

Hands down the best dental experience I’ve ever had! Luckily I was paired with the Dental Hygienist Caitlyn and she was AMAZING. She’s personable, detail oriented, and made me feel 100% more comfortable than I did when I walked in the door. Honestly, it was like have a friend clean your teeth. Dr. Downs was also AMAZING she was gentle and incredibly welcoming. I look forward to coming back next year.

The staff at Downs Dental are all first class! Today was my very first visit and I can’t express enough the top notch professionalism, knowledge and overall kindness I experienced and received by everyone in the office. Everyone was very respectful and welcoming! Ownership provided a personal tour of the entire practice and provided background information of how the practice started as well as the vision moving forward. Christi certainly deserves special mention as she went above and beyond, displaying passion and enthusiasm during her examination! She made the experience very special and you can tell she strives daily to perfect her craft!! In addition, the facility was very clean and the aesthetics, breathtaking. You can tell a lot of thought was put into the amenities of the office and the environment was peaceful and tranquil. The equipment was top of the line and cutting edge. I would most definitely recommend this practice to anyone considering a new dentist. You won’t go wrong with this group!!! Well done everyone!

First Class! I came in with the need to have a crown to be reattched. We are from out of the area and I needed this work completed today as we are moving on. I was able to come right in and the work was completed in a short time. The staff was very friendly and professional and the dentist did a great job, reasonably priced too for it being an emergency (an emergency for me). I would not hesitate to come here again, Very Satisfied!

Downs Dental Care is the place to be!!! Dr. Downs and all of her staff are caring, personable, and very professional! The experience begins with Brandon at the front desk. Whether over the phone or face-to-face, Brandon provides quality customer service! Dr. Downs is an excellent Dentist who really cares about her patients. While working on my teeth, Dr. Downs and the Dental Hygienists are always gentle and concerned about my well-being. If you are searching for a practice that operates in excellence, come to Downs Dental Care.

New to town and looking for a “good dentist”. WOW!! I FOUND ONE! From my first call Brandon put me right at ease and helped me with absolute courtesy and kindness. I have no insurance so as a cash patient Dr Downs was incredibly sensitive to this issue. I was robbed at gun point and suffer anxiety. Being trapped in a small space is incredibly frightening for me. I NEVER felt uneasy. No idea how the staff and Dr made me feel completely safe and comfortable, but this woman was AMAZING! Her staff is also AMAZING! I wish I could give her more than 5 stars. She is a truly wonderful dentist!!! If you are not excited about your current dentist I would say give her a shot. You would not be disappointed

I believe I am one of the first patients Downs Dental Care has seen that has been sent for treatment by the VA, what a great practice. The staff are awesome, I had waited for two months for a different dentist to see me and was canceled at the last minute. But everything happens for a reason, thank you to the staff and the hygienist “Christi” and Dr Miller deserve a separate mention. It is obvious that everyone is invested in giving great treatment, and as a veteran sent for treatment by the VA it is greatly appreciated.

I had a situation on Friday afternoon with something getting hung under my permanent bridge. I called and the staff was extremely professional and caring. Gave me suggestions to try , and they suggested if I was not able to remove it they would be able to work me in at 3:30. I ended up having to go to their office. Within minutes after arriving, my issue was taken care of at no cost to me. It makes me feel good to be a part of a dentistry where their staff is very CONSISTENT and always strives to take care of your problem in a timely manner.

I love Downs dental care. Ther staff is so courteous. I will tell you a little situation Ihad. Dr. Downs was getting ready to go out of town on vacation. I called the office and told them my tooth had broken, and i did not want to have a broken tooth for the holidays. Most dentist would have told you to wait until they get back or simply just don’t answer your call. Dr. downs told me to meet her at her office and she would repair it. She did exactly what she said. I trust her . It took me a long time to find a dentist I like. After finding Dr. Downs I will never look for another dentist.

I can clearly say I’m not afraid of the dentist anymore. Thanks to Dr. Downs and Fabby. The best ever. Fabby thanks for holding my hand throughout everything! Dr. Downs you are the best so nice and gentle and always asked if I was ok. Thank you. Mr. Downs let’s go HEAT . I RECOMMEND “DOWNS DENTAL CARE”. Amazing staff. Beautiful views very elegant and cleanI love it. I couldn’t see myself anywhere else, but at DOWNS DENTAL CARE!

I was really excited when I saw the name of your dental office. Being a parent of a child with Down Syndrome, I automatically thought, Omg! How great, someone actually decided to open up a dental practice for people with special needs, YEAH!! But then I clicked on the page and saw that Down was your last name and not a practice for people with special needs. Now I’m bummed out. It is so difficult ( more than people realize) to find a compassionate and extremely patient dentist for people with special needs. In the event that you do have experience in this particular area and you except Medicaid, would you Plz post something on my fb wall? I cannot get PM’s on fb. Thank you PS. I wasn’t able to send you msg either, so I thought I would post my question to you on this “rate” option !

The Best. Dentist. Ever! All staff are exceptional including Melissa our hygienist. Brandon at the front desk is incredibly welcoming and efficient. Our entire family loves Dr. Downs. She goes above and beyond any doctor I’ve ever encountered to ensure that her patients are doing well. Her skills, care and compassion are unparalleled. 5 Stars. Highly recommend! Like

Downs Dental uses the most up-to-date technology to provide a peaceful and relaxing dental experience. All staff are highly trained, personable, and knowledgeable. They make sure to take the time to explain all treatment plans and cost carefully and clearly before making decisions and go above and beyond to make sure the experience is pleasant and cost effective for their patients. LOVE Dr. Downs!

If you are looking for a dentist that knows her stuff and really cares about the quality of service you receive, seek out Dr Downs. I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of care I have received over the last few years. Additionally, my wife has a thing with needles and dental care from a dentist was the last thing on her to do list. Dr. Downs helped put her fears in abeyance and as a result she has become a regular patient. Hi highly recommend her and her staff for dental care.

I just want to say what a overall wonderful experience we just had at Downs Dental Care. From the moment we entered the beautiful office to the moment we left it was a great experience ! Unfortunately my daughter had her first cavity. Dr. Downs quickly put my daughter at ease. Her gentle touch made the cavity fix no problem . I recommend Downs Dental Care to anyone looking for a compassionate , gentle dentist. Thank you Dr. Downs for a wonderful family check up!

Dental visits have given me extreme anxiety since I was a kid. I hate everything from the noises and odors to the way they like to ask you questions when your jaws are propped open & you can’t properly respond. None of this is an issue at Downs Dental Care. The office is like a spa. The chairs are comfortable and face a large window looking outside to a beautiful grassy area with birds. It is actually relaxing, which is a miracle for a dentist’s office to achieve. Dr. Downs and her staff are amazing. I was so comfortable here, I finally had multiple procedures done that I had been putting off for years. Dr. Downs is so sweet and is genuinely concerned with the comfort of the patient. She asks if I am okay, explains everything as she goes along, and gives breaks if needed. She is also trustworthy, and there is no pressure for expensive procedures. She will tell you what needs to be done and what can wait. Dr. Downs is upfront about the costs, and will always provide alternatives, if available. In two years of being a customer, I have never been surprised with any fees or erroneous charges. Dr. Downs is amazing and I am so grateful that she is my children’s first dental experience. They have no fear of the dentist, and I believe it is largely because of this office. I recommend this place to everyone. If you are uncomfortable with dental visits, I believe they will change your mind.

Absolutely hands down the best dentist I have been to!! She is so gentle and genuine with her work. I had a filling replaced today and didn’t feel the needle at all. She is also excellent with children. She is the perfect dentist for yourself or your family. I refuse to go to any other dentist. Thank you for changing my dental experience!

My first visit with Dr Downs and her staff and I couldn’t be happier. I felt very comfortable the minute I walked in I met my hygienist Tina and she was awesome, the best I’ve had, ever. She was kind, informative and made me feel very relaxed. Dr Downs finished my exam and was very understanding of my needs and concerns and what I felt was best for me in terms of some alternative choices I could have in my dental care. So happy to find this practice!!!

Like many I have always dreaded dental work, but my mindset changed recently at Downs Dentistry. The atmosphere is more like a comfortable home than an office. I was welcomed with a smile and was surprised when Mr. Downs came out to greet me and take me through the ‘first patient visit’ procedure himself. It was all done on an IPad making it quick and simple. I then went directly back to an exam room ( no typical 20-40 min wait ) and was greeted by a hygienist who was friendly, courteous and made me feel comfortable instantly by telling me exactly what was going to happen before every step. I heard Dr Downs is the best and I soon found out why. Dr Downs spent more time with me than any other Dentist. She examined, explained and discussed a plan to get my teeth healthy. All while being very gentle and professional. Unfortunately I have to return for more work but it will be the first time with no hesitation.

Downs Dental is the best dental office in Hampton Roads. A friend / co worker referred me over a year ago and I have had the best experience every visit. The staff is awesome, courteous and polite. I learned today that Brandon is leaving the state and it crushed my soul. I wish him nothing but the best and safe travels on his new journey. Thanks Downs Dental for everything! All of you ROCK!!!!!

I am a new patient to Dr. Downs office. Everything about the visit went great! Christi was my Dental Hygienist and she was amazing. She took time with me to explain things and was very gentle. I could not have asked for better. Brandon made scheduling my appointment and filling out paperwork painless and was very welcoming. Dr. Downs came in to check my teeth and was wonderful as well. I am the daughter of a retired dentist so I am very particular about my teeth and I would definitely recommend this office!

Today was my first appointment at this office and I couldn’t be more pleased! The office staff was very friendly, and the hygienist, Caitlyn, was wonderful. She was friendly, diligent and didn’t try to have continual conversation with me when I had instruments in my mouth which I greatly appreciated! At my prior dentist office, the hygienist always hit sensitive nerves while cleaning my teeth and I dreaded going. But Caitlyn was so gentle there was no discomfort at all! I also appreciated the private room and TV to watch while the cleaning was happening.When Dr. Downs came in the room, I was immediately struck by her warm, genuine nature. She was thorough and very knowledgeable. Looking forward to many years of dental health at this office!

I visited this practice in December 2019 for the first time and I was highly impressed. Dr. Downs and staff laid out an affordable treatment plan to get me to a healthy place in my dental care. I was so relieved. The atmosphere was so cozy and beautiful. More importantly, my teeth looked good and gums felt great when I left.

I had a lot of dental work as a kid and as a result am very anxious with any dental visit. I recently broke a tooth and was able to get in quickly with Dr Miller. He was very patient with me and made sure any level of pain was taken care of throughout the procedure. It was the best experience possible considering. My family has seen Dr. Downs up to this point and she is awesome! It feels great to now have two super friendly dentists that I totally trust. Highly recommended!!

I cannot express enough how kind and professional the staff are at this practice. I had a dental emergency, I was not even a patient yet, and Dr. Downs answered my questions after hours and fit me in the next day. 2 wonderful staff members called me after 8:30 pm to get my new patient paperwork and set up the appointment. The hygenist who helped me had to be the nicest person I have ever met. She immediately made me feel comfortable. The Office Manager was amazingly kind and explained the payment process, both she and Dr. Downs have a thorough understanding of how dental insurance works. I was very upset about what brought me to the practice, everyone there helped to make me feel better. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who has a lot of anxiety about going to the dentist.

After visiting the dentist from hell, Dr. Shabana Zahir with Ideal Smiles Dentistry, I needed to find a new dentist to get my last 2 fillings taken care of. My husband found Dr. Paige Downs through Google. As soon as we called we made the receptionist aware of my anxiety and my concerns were quickly relayed to Dr. Downs. Everything Dr. Zahir said was an inconvenience or not possible was quickly and easily taken care of by Dr. Downs. I didn’t feel much pain when she numbed me and the actual procedure was surprisingly quick and stress free. All the staff I interacted with were absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend Downs Dental Care.

My first visit to Downs Dental was yesterday after several years of going to another practice. The entire staff was warm, pleasant, and professional. Made me feel most wecome and comfortable. Facility is very nice and made for a relaxing visit. My hygenist and Dr. Downs were thorough, knowledgeable, and gentle. I highly recommend Downs Dental and am glad I found them.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING! This is the only dentist I’ve ever been to in my LIFE that I actually TRUST cleaning my teeth, whether I have my braces on or braces off, they always do a good job there taking care of their patients. I love how the dentist always talks to the patient and honestly makes the whole process not painful one bit. I actually CAN say I love going to the dentist again! Highly consider going here again, 5/5 stars! ☺️

Lovely and warm atmosphere paired with excellent customer service and patient care. I never felt so comfortable going to a dental office. Thank you Jonathan, Melissa and Dr. Downs for taking the time to answer my dental health questions, going over my plan of care to get my dental health back on track as well as taking the time to go over my dental plan coverage and anticipated costs. I am extremely grateful.

Love that this family-owned and operated business is doing so well, and the reasons are clear. A beautiful and peaceful office, friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient staff, who worked with our schedule, and the BEST bedside manner of Dr. Paige Downs. She is professional, gentle, and explained exactly what she was doing and the science behind it. My son got a hands-on science lesson while he was being cared for in the best possible way. Thank you, Downs Dental. Dr. Downs, Jayson, and the whole staff make you feel like family, and it’s good to be “home.”
