I’ve never been happier with staff or a dentist (Dr. Philips) than here, in 30 years. Zero complaints and felt they went above and beyond since the first day I stepped in the office.

Big thanks and appreciation to Dr Hoben and Sarah for the emergency visit. Being from out of town and working they understood and took great care of me explaining everything along the way. I really enjoyed the service/experience. I hope it's ok that I recommend your business for anyone who is from out of town and working in the area. Thanks again.

Got an extraction done on Tuesday at petrolia dentistry and I highly recommend this clinic! Dr Mike and his assistant Carrie were absolutely fantastic and such a blast to talk to them. The receptionists were extremely sweet as well and called me the next day to ask how I was feeling. Overall a great experience at this clinic and I will definitely be going back to receive any future treatment. 10/10.

I have extreme anxiety going to the Dentist, due to a bad experience years ago. Dr. Hoben was aware and he was very supportive. I’ve had a few visits this month and it’s been very positive. I highly recommend Dr. Hoben.

I moved to Petrolia September 2022. Petrolia dentistry was fantastic! I saw Dr. Rebecca Phillips. She conducted a very thorough examination of my teeth, jaw, mouth, gums, etc. We discussed a few options for some of my dental needs. She was very knowledgeable and offered reasonable options for me. She answered all my questions and concerns. I was very pleased with everything and have follow up appointments coming up. So far, excellent impression. I’ve had several cleanings since. All the hygienists are professional and knowledgeable. They always try to accommodate appointment times. This year Dr. Hoban performed a dental implant on my lower left jaw. It’s always a process with several appointments and follow ups needed. Everything was thoroughly explained to me from A-Z. The process proceeded as planned. Everything went smoothly and am happy with the results of the implant. I have one more to do next year. The only negative thing I can think of is that they are not open very early or any late hours during the week, or Saturdays. It’s basically normal business hours, so I had to take time off from work for appointments. I highly recommend Petrolia dentistry for your dental needs.

Best Dental Experience I've ever had in 47 years. I used to avoid getting my teeth cleaned because I found it painful and unpleasant. Amy changed that. She was gentle, kind, funny and thorough in her explanations and the cleaning was swift and painless. Dr. Hoban is wonderful and supportive in every way. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
