Can’t say enough how amazing and professional the entire staff of Parkwood Dental has been. Since I moved to Florida 8 yrs ago, they have taken great pride in making sure all my dentals needs and issues are met. Dr Oscar Hernandez Jr and his son Dr Tito and his wife Dr Tao are the best. His daughter Jodi runs the office and staff with enthusiasm and a very friendly atmosphere. Please consider them for your Dental needs esp the new facility on State Rd 64!

I’ve been going to many different dentist since I was a little girl. None of them have been as amazing as Parkwood Dental has been to me. I’ve had such a Pleasant experience with them each time I’ve gone with any cleanings or cavities that needed removing! They are just an absolute pleasure to be around and really take the time and care to make sure all your needs are met! I’ve been going for a couple of years now and they’re the most kindest people ever. If you’re looking for a dentist who will take very good care of you, kind, professional, and will always make sure you aren’t in any pain, I recommend Parkwood Dental! They take priority in their customers and make sure all your problems or needs are taken care of. I will never go to anyone else again! I wish I could give them 10 stars if I could!

Everyone at Parkwood Dental was so kind, supportive, and well educated. I walked away with all my questions answered and a treatment plan in progress. I truly felt heard and understood. I had not been to the dentist in a couple of years and felt no judgement coming in which I was worried about. Special shoutout to Krista, she was super sweet and talked to the doctor prior to me seeing him about my concerns. Everyone seemed on the same page from the front office, dental hygienist, the doctor, and treatment plan coordinator.

Parkwood Dental is absolutely amazing! The entire staff is so friendly and welcoming - they know me by name the moment I walk through the door. Their cleanings are the gentlest I've ever had yet thorough, and I always feel genuinely cared for. I actually fly in from out of state just to see them - that's how much I trust and love this team! Highly recommend them!

Had to have emergency extraction and had it replaced with a crown. Dr. Collins is awesome but all the staff are professional and supportive. I have dental phobias and I am not an easy patient. They were willing to proceed at my pace. Cosmetically, the esthetic outcome was excellent.

I want to give a shout out to Patricia Yelito Spaar with Parkwood Dental. A month or so ago I saw her at an event I was at and was telling her about the embarrassingly long time it had been since I went to the dentist. She was so sweet and said no problem, we will take care of you! She had me give her my number and Parkwood Dental reached out to me directly to schedule an appt. I had a cleaning, xrays, scans, the works. They were absolutely fabulous. Everyone who works there is wonderful. I needed one crown which I got done today. Again, the experience was wonderful. Thank you so much for getting me set up and in!!
If you are looking to get in with a dentist who is on time, doesnt upsell you, has plenty of wonderful staff, treats you with respect and care and is reasonably priced, PARKWOOD DENTAL is the place to go!!
And..I had paid in advance for all my services and when I was leaving today they gave me a refund of $329 because it turns out they didn't need to do something they had previously thought they would have to. I GREATLY appreciate the honesty because I would have never known the difference!
Response from the owner
Thank you, Jennifer, for your fantastic review! We're delighted to hear about your positive experience with Patricia and our team. Your trust and satisfaction are our top priorities. We look forward to serving you again!1 year ago

Excellent Dentist! My dental hygiene has improved a ton since going to Parkwood Dental thanks to Dawn. I also was recommended a root canal and crown at another dentist that Dr. Nguyen was able to fill as a double cavity. They listen to your concerns and want what’s best for you and your teeth.

Our 3 year old had her first dental experience last week and HUGE KUDDOS to the team! She was tired and didn’t want to do it at first but they got her to do what they needed! THANK YOU!!!!!

Thank you so much for finding me an appointment with my tight schedule. I'm grateful Dr. Nguyen is my new dentist. I moved from out of state and wanted to find a dentist as great as the one I had in Arizona. She's thorough and gentle with her work. I neglected dental work during covid, and she has me back on a plan to get me caught up.

While coming in this morning i was greeted with spectacular energy which made my day brighter. While going in to get my teeth cleaned i was a bit nervous but Nicole easily took that away with her happy energy. She is amazing with what she does, i didn’t even budge one bit. I highly recommend Parkwood Dental to anyone who needs Dental done. Amazing place, i will be back!!

Always wanted a hygienist who was gentle, moving side to side instead of turning my tired neck, made sure I was comfortable. I love Nicole. She keeps my teeth clean and the rest relaxed.
Great service! Also Dr Hernandez is the most honest dentist who cares about my health & pocketbook. He does what is necessary. Thank you. Please don’t ever retire!

Everyone is so nice! They were very reassuring when I had a wisdom tooth removal. The woman who did my deep clean explained everything perfectly.

So happy we found Parkwood Dental! The staff is warm, friendly, and pleasant to work with. I appreciate the extra time they took explaining my children's procedures and working out a plan that would fit with our insurance. Appointments are on time and the office is very efficient. We look forward to being patients for a long time.

We have been going to Parkwood dental for about four years now. We always have the best visit. They do a great job cleaning and let you know what you honestly need. They are not pushy at all. I highly recommend Parkwood dental.

The staff is sweet and professional. The wait time has always been short, even with a full waiting room. The office is clean and new and very nice! The cleanings are great and pain free. The equipment and technology they have is like none I’ve seen before! Dr Oscar Hernandez is fantastic. I’m quite sad that they don’t accept my new insurance because finding a dentist office I love this much seems like it will be impossible!

All the employees were incredibly polite. The office is clean and welcoming. Patricia helped me with my Invisalign and she did a fantastic job! She was super polite and made sure I was comfortable. 🙂 I've been going here for a long time, and they have never disappointed me (both regular dental work and orthodontics).
