PATIENT REVIEWS

Check out what some of our happy patients are saying about us:

★★★★★

Just had my first visit with Dr Vela. They exceeded my expectations and that’s not easy. When I first checked in the admin staff said they were having problems verifying my coverage- why didn’t they let me know? Idk. But, from there on I was pleasantly surprised and pleased with the staff and procedures. I told them I am very anxious about dental stuff – they heard me and altered procedures accordingly. Can’t say I look forward to my next appointment but I’m not dreading it!!  Thanks so much.

Very clean office. The staff was super nice. Dr. Vela actually took the time to explain what he wanted to do and why things were occurring with my teeth. The Hygienist actually took her time cleaning my teeth and making sure she got everything cleaned properly. Even though I have insurance this is also the most affordable dentist I have visited. I absolutely loved this experience and will definitely be staying with them!

★★★★★

Great crew, great vibe! Way better experience with the staff and Dr. The Last dentist is visited made me feel like a customer rather than a patient. Looking forward to a healthy set of teeth thanks to Dr. Vela and his crew!

★★★★★

I have been a patient for several years but never needed more than just a cleaning. I was in Austin for the 4th of July and got a toothache. They were able to get me in on the 5th. I really liked Dr. Egen. He took great care of me. Feeling much better now

★★★★★

I absolutely LOVE the staff here! Everyone is always so sweet, and all of my questions have always been answered with fully understanding what is needed. I can’t say enough about how nice the doctors are, and how comfortable they make the patients feel!!! I promise you will NOT regret going to see them!! :))

★★★★★

Anxious is normally the way I feel when going to the dentist. However, my entire experience here was calming and stress free. The staff is great and Dr. Vela was fantastic. He offered me a prioritized explanation of his evaluation which makes budgeting and planning so much easier than expectedZ

★★★★★

The best dental office in town! The doctor is kind and compassionate. The front office staff is courteous and make you feel welcome the minute you walk in. They explain everything so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. It is bit expensive if you’re on a budget but they do everything they can to accommodate you. The assistants are the best! Funny, kind, compassionate and they engage with you as if they were your best friend! I loved that! That made my experience so much easier! I definitely recommend Vela Dental Center- Southside!

Thank you guys so much for making an unfortunate situation better. I lost a filling late one afternoon and Dr. Vela’s team worked to get me in even though they were completely booked. I was very uncomfortable, with sensation to cold and heat. I wouldn’t say I was miserable, but I was getting there! By the time I left all was better! Thanks to ALL the staff, and Dr. Vela!

★★★★★

This is hands down the best dentists ive been to. The beautiful staff ladies provide excellent service and knowledgeable information on your dental procedures topped off with their awesome personalities and humor. Anyone who fears going to the dentist i would recommend this office. The experience is like no other. I give you 10 Stars Dr. Vela and Staff…..James Bass….

I had to have major dental work done. Dr. Vela and staff were professional, courtesy, and thoroughly explained the process of my dental procedures. I greatly appreciate getting my smile back and even better than before. Thank you!

★★★★★

The best dentist On the planet! I have had a huge fear of dentist forever!!!! This team and staff is amazing at making me feel comfortable. Let me talk about painless procedures! I I recently got my tooth extracted (this is my second tooth extraction from here and zero pain during procedure) I felt ZERO pin during the procedure even counting the shot! Dr Vela really cares about the comfort of his patients! I tried them with all my teeth! I recommend anyone to come here for anything from cleaning to extractions!

★★★★★

These guys are the best !!! Other dental experts were not willing to even attempt the work that I needed done . They came up with a plan to dental health and we are working that plan . If you are are in need of general preventative care to in-depth care these are the doctors you want to choose.

★★★★★

I had a very infected tooth that needed to be removed immediately & this office was very prompt in giving me an appointment asap, put me on antibiotics & had a follow up to remove the tooth. Very reasonably priced, no pain when removing the tooth, professional & gentle staff. Will definitely be using this office in the future & recommending to family & friends!

★★★★★

Wonderful and caring staff! Highly recommend. I was very hesitant at first to even go into a dentist office due to neglecting my teeth for a good while. They were very caring and understanding and gave me a breakdown of what I need to get done and without pressure broke it down for me to get as much or as little done at a time as it works for me. Very appreciative of their services.

★★★★★

Vela Dental is a first class, professional organization! I’ve been a patient for over 20 years (l should be a shareholder!) The staff is pleasant and courteous. Furthermore, unlike most health care offices wait time is minimal. I’m certain Dr. Ben has been trained on more procedures than most if not all of the other dentists in the area. I highly recommend them. Jack Bolster

My daughter and I went to Dr. Vela’s office for a consultation for dentures. We received excellent care from everyone in the office as well from Dr. Vela. Was give a complete set of exrays (at no cost) in order to give me accurate pricing and procedures needed. We also talked with Tealor in billing to see our choices in financing. Excellent consultation! Left with every question answered in order to make ALL AT NO CHARGE!!

Corpus is fortunate to have Dr. Vela Sr, Dr. Ben Vela, & now Jeremy. Getting world class care & service. I love visiting the office- happy staff and relaxed experience. -Sunny

The staff is very friendly & professional, Dr Vela is personable and takes the time to explain his diagnosis and treatment options clearly. His chair-side manner is reassuring, he does a good job of putting this patient at ease during sometimes difficult procedures. I can highly recommend him.

★★★★★

To Dr. Ng, Patty and staff at Vela Dental – Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have never worked with such an enjoyable dentist, and assistant, in my life. They gave me a new smile, with 4 new teeth, that I’m proud to show off. Always professional and enjoyable to be with. I will gladly recommend you to anyone, anytime. THANK YOU! Five stars for a great team!

All in all a great visit. Wouldn’t have had anyone else do it. The staff at Dr. Vela’s offices (both on Morgan and Holly) are nothing short of excellent! Thank you Dr. Benjamin Vela, Elena and Alice for the wonderful care! Now it’s sleepy time!

I was pleased to have chosen Vela Dental South side for my sons dental needs. Dr. Ben and his staff explained everything we needed to know about moving forward with my sons extractions. Dr. Ben made my son feel comfortable every step of the way. Thanks again Dr. Ben and staff .

★★★★★

I’m extremely pleased… And I highly recommend. The staff is phenomenal. I was extremely scared of dentist. They talked to me and put my mind at ease. And to be honest.. with the whole process. It’s been fantastic. My husband was even pleased when he came to pick me up. He told me that he’s never seen the staff. Explain detail to detail of what they did. What to expect after the procedure. That they are very professional. We are extremely pleased. Thank you for everything Naomi Grimaldi

I love coming here. Everyone is so friendly and funny!! Dr Vela came in on a day he was off back in March when I had an infection and treated me with kindness and helped me out a whole lot! Alayna, (I’m not too sure if I spelled it right or not!! I apologize If I botched it.) is the best!!! Love her so much she’s always so careful and kind when I come in. Never thought I’d say that I look forward to a dentist appointment but I look forward to them every month for my braces. Love this office.

I will never go anywhere else. I have visited other dentist offices and have had some traumatic experiences. But this place is completely different. I had a lot of work that needed to be done (which came out excellent by the way) and they always made sure I was as comfortable as possible. THE STAFF IS AMAZING always kind and professional.

★★★★★

All around 5 stars. Id give them more, if i could. The front desk staff is amazing. Really though, its everyone there. Everyone is so friendly and kind. Ive needed multiple appointments and every time i go in, i grow more and more impressed by the positive atmosphere. I was extremely anxious and apprehensive, especially after seeing the work that i needed done. But, Dr. Ben was great at talking me through a plan and the staff offered me payment options that helped so much! Being cash pay is terrifying – but they were happy to help me come up with a plan. Now… for the work… 🙂 this is what is worth reviewing. I cant even put into words how much i appreciate the care and time Dr. Jeremy Vela and his dental assistants put into helping me get my teeth fixed. Ill spare all the details of what i needed done, but it took time, patience, and work. I can not thank Dr. Jeremy enough for his patience, kindness, attention to detail, and all around positivity. I never once felt like just another person in the seat. I cant recommend this practice enough.

So love this dentist..got with them year ago to do so.e major dental work..having teeth extracted and front permanent partial put in.. Patty and Crista have been the bomb � along with Dr Benjamin Vela would recommend to anyone hands down!

★★★★★

Not just professional, but very friendly staff. They made my experience non-stressful. And that’s saying alot, because I had a cavity drilled out and fitted for a crown. But Jeremy Vela did a great job and communicated everything to me, and I felt at ease. The dental assistant was wonderful and made me laugh throughout the visit. I definitely recommend Vela Dental.

★★★★★

Everyone I interacted with was very nice and professional. The hygienist was very thorough and didn’t tear my gums apart like some others do. She was gentle but effective, so that was great. Met Dr. Vela on the way out, and he was very polite and took some time to chat with me which I thought was a nice touch.

I have been visiting Vela dental for quite some time now. The service is consistent and excellent. I’m always greeted with a friendly smile and the staff is very personable. I have had fillings which were done quite well. Of course I visit every 6 months for my cleaning and I always enjoy my visits! Just yesterday I went in for my cleaning and tried their latest bleaching treatment. I LOVE my results and my smile is even brighter now. I felt prepared every step of the way (I know some people have a fear of the dentist, I don’t) and Monica was very accommodating in making sure I was comfortable during the treatment. I recommend Vela Dental and will continue to use them for my services.

I’ve been a patient for many years now, at least 5 years or more. The staff are always friendly and professional. Scheduling an appointment is very easy, they are very accommodating with my busy work/school schedule. Dr Vela and the other doctor are fantastic and help patients feel comfortable about their dental care. The Dental Hygentist are also friendly and care about their patients comfort. I’ve had numerous cleanings, a couple of wisdom teeth pulled, and now I’m doing Six Month Smile in office. I’m very pleased with the process thus far. My smile is looking so much better than I could of ever expected. Im so greatful to have found a dental practice that I feel comfortable going to.

My wife and I have been regular patients for many years now and have always been extremely pleased with the personal care and services provided by Dr. Ben and his staff. Fair, honest, friendly, with true concern for their patients. These folks truly represent “Integrity”. We feel very comfortable in their hands.

I have been receiving routine preventative dental care at Vela Dental for years because they are very pleasant. They provide compassionate and competent dental services year round. The staff is super friendly and they are up-to-date on technology. You get reminders via text message and confirmations of your appointment which is very much appreciated. Claudia (dental hygienist) has a very pleasant demeanor and treats you like FAMILY. I would highly recommend Vela Dental to all.

★★★★★

Very professional and nice. Work completed was great. Only thing is that they said typically insurance doesn’t pay for fluoride so if I wanted it I had to pay $25. I guess the only thing that I didn’t care for about that is that they should’ve at least tried getting that information from the insurance before my visit to ensure me it didn’t cover it. They were so quick to come to me to tell me how much everything would cost on the work needed on my teeth so at that point they could’ve at least found out about the fluoride. Prices are reasonable. Would recommend:

Staff is friendly & so is the Dentist. They are all very hard working people who are patient at the end of the day! You can see that. There’s always a smile there and someone to make sure your problems are heard. They’ll remind you ur appointments and work with u to be seen. Phone operator/person has a very good job taking care things. They will ask questions to make sure you’re 100 percent satisfied. They’re good under pressure. They have my 5 stars yeah

Dr. Vela and staff were very professional and explained everything about the dental questions I had and went beyond and gave me the options I had available and also payment and financial plans. I was very satisfied with my visit and recommend Vela Dental Center to anyone. I chose to visit them from their website, reading the reviews and also from a personal friend who is a patient that made a recommendation as well.
