I have been going to this office for more than 15 years. Never once have I had a bad experience or a recommendation I did not feel comfortable proceeding with. Everything is always explained thoroughly and thoughtfully. I highly recommend using them if you are looking for a new dentist!
What a lovely dental practice - all the staff were lovely, Dr Hoffman was so friendly and reassuring and thorough, and the whole space felt very clean and bright. A great experience.
I highly recommend Dr Hoffman as an “all star” dentist. He’s extremely experienced and has addressed many issues with my teeth over the past year I’ve been a patient. I had a main dentist for 20yrs who retired. After 5 years I thought I would never find a suitable replacement. Thank god I was referred to Dr. Hoffman. He has been excellent and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for dental care.
Dr Scott Hoffman is excellent. I have been visiting him since 2003. He is highly experienced and always identifies the issue accurately and treat it well.
A well run office with friendly staff. The hygienist was thorough (best cleaning I’ve had in awhile). Dr. Hoffman is a cut above. This is a solid option for a family dentist.
Ive gone to Dr. Hoffmans office for 25 years of cleanings, one filling, and one oral surgery referral and the care has never been anything short of excellent. Everyone is friendly, professional, and thorough, and I have always felt like Ive gotten the highest standard of care. Highly recommended.
I had an emergency last Friday. Scott came from his home to meet me at the office. He also called in a periodontist so we could discuss the next steps. Tuesday I had the first appt to begin the process. All very efficient and considerate.
I have been a long term patient of Dr Hoffman. He and his staff and team are consistently exceptional in their total patient interface and care. His staff has been with him throughout these years which speaks volumes about the quality of his practice and work environment. My dental hygienist there is Lisa and she is outstanding. They are like family. I give them the highest recommendation and referral possible. I would go nowhere else.
Excellent doc - great to talk to and very knowledgeable and thoughtful in his approach. Staff is wonderful and caring also.
I’ve been a patient of Scott’s for 37 years along with my family. Scott is a great dentist and the staff is excellent.
Dr.Hoffman and all his staff are great. I’ve been going there for almost 30 years and highly recommended them. I’ve moved up to SanMateo, but I still keep him as my dentist because he’s so good.
Just had my teeth cleaned by Lisa and she was so gentle. I’m not one for the dentist office and she made me feel comfortable and at ease and she was very gentle. Definitely would go back and see her again.
The best! Scott is conscientious and incredibly skilled. His entire staff mirrors him and delivers the highest level of care. 5 + stars.
Always a great experience. Professional, Competent, and friendly.
Dr Hoffman is always available in an emergency. He and his staff are very kind. I have always had a great experience there.
Have been going here for 20+ years and am very happy with my experience in all aspects. Top notch all around and would very much recommend!
I am delighted with Dr. Hoffman and his entire staff. They were helpful, pleasant and efficient. I have been looking for a dental office like this and finally know I am at the right place. I have much dental work to be done and am extremely confident about the outcome and the care I will receive now and in the future.
Excellent service. The fillings Ive gotten from Dr. Hoffman have held up well (better than fillings from other dentists). Dr. Hoffman seems very trustworthy and competent to me!
Fantastic people oriented service. Serious issues in my mouth dealt with quickly, painless and I’ve been going to Scott since 1982. Memorized his phone number. Highly recommend him.
Dr. Hoffman is caring and an excellent dentist. I trust him.
Timely, smooth, professional and friendly! What more is expected?
Very happy experience. The office is clean, the people who work there are competent and kind. They run a tight ship, you show up, are seated, and immediately are being worked on, no sitting around and wasting time.
Dr Hoffman and his staff are always courteous and kind. They are thorough, careful, and reliable!Makes going to the dentist an incredibly positive experience!
Awesome experienced team. Dr Hoffman is a class act, and Eva has lots of great tips on dental health and does an amazing job with cleanings.
Excellent dentistry, hygienists, patient care. Strict adherence to Covid-19 regulations. Highly recommend Dr. Hoffman and his fine staff! Five stars!
Excellent experience in this office. Great staff and clean environment. Highly recommend!
This was my first appointment with Dr. Hoffman and I was so impressed with the time he took to address all of my concerns. My hygienist, Lisa, was gentle yet thorough.
First time new patient. Gave me forms ahead of time, filled out at home and process was easy! Great adherence to covid rules and cleaning. OverallVery very good!
Great experience. Empathic and expert.Scheduled my emergency appt right away.Very grateful and always feel that I am in good hands.
Just went for the first time. They stick to a great covid protocol. I felt safe the entire time. They were very kind, accommodating and Dr. Hoffman did a great job explaining any detail of my teeth I was wondering about. I think Ive found my new dentist!
Thank you so much for taking care of our whole family.
Our family has been patients of Scott Hoffman for many years. The kids now grown and moved away, still love him and say “all others pale in comparison, I miss him as my dentist.”The staff and hygienists are the best, always warm and helpful and do an excellent job with all aspects of scheduling, Covid safety and insurance billing. Hygienist are the best, thorough and so informative as well as really personable. That’s a triple win.I have been a patient for close to 35 years, wow long time, and always so grateful to have found Scott.
Great friendly and helpful staff and service!
A great office and surprisingly pleasant way to start the morning.Thanks to shelter-in-place I am slowly tanning while I wait for the OK to enter various offices. Thankfully the wait here was both short and efficient.Jackie at the front desk is indispensable on your way out for setting up the followup appointments. On your way in she radiates a smile that will settle the most ravaged nerves.The cleaning was really well done. I like to know what the specialist sees in my mouth and she was very good at explaining what I was doing right (very little it turns out) and what I was doing wrong with my toothbrush and flossing.Once finished Debra has all the patience in the world to handle your insurance, billing questions, payment, and angst. Her delightful personality really helps when problems with insurance or payment schedules get the better of you.
I went for a cleaning and she was very attentive and thorough.
Always a good experience. Everyone is very knowledgeable, great at their job and all so nice!!
Really liked Michelle. She did a wonderful job, was friendly but not overly talkative. Hope to have her take care of me again.
Dr. Scott Hoffman and his hygienist, Lisa, are my favorites! They are thorough, professional and so personal- I could not be happier:) Highly recommend them both!!! Kathy B
Very Covid safe - out door waiting, no aerosols, minimal contact with staff - just the hygienists and the doctor. It also appears that there are hospital grade HEPA filters in EACH room. The practice has taken my safety into account and I felt safe and well cared for.
Dr. Hoffman and his whole team are all super sweet! They make you feel very comfortable. They always ask if there’s any questions before they begin with a procedure. But the best part is they try to get to k ow you and ask about you, and Dr.Hoffman sure remembers those conversations.
Samantha did a nice job of cleaning my teeth and explaining the modifications to the procedure due to COVID-19 concerns.However, when I made the appointment a few weeks ago, I specifically asked for Lisa, my preferred hygienist. After finding out that she was on maternity leave, I was told that Mary was coming to help periodically and that I could schedule a time with her. The only reason that I agreed to the date/time was because it was a day that Mary would be there and the receptionist was well aware of it.I was reminded of this appointment three or four times, including a phone call the day before, asking about my health. I was not notified that Mary would not be cleaning my teeth, even when I walked in to the office before going to the exam room.When I questioned the receptionist, she took no accountability, did not apologize and responded that I could reschedule. Is it up to the patient to confirm that a request for a specific hygienist will be honored? Are the patients expectations valued?
First time visitor and I had the best experience ever. I saw Scott for a consultation and before we got into my dental needs, he took his time to get to know me and was very personal and felt like I was talking to a friend. He instantly spotted what my concerns were and assured me that we can correct some issues I have. He also was considerate of the distance his office is in relevance to my home and is accommodating my time to utilize it to the fullest by scheduling things on the same day vs. having me return several times. Im looking forward to making this my official place to be for all dental needs - after many years of trialing different offices.
I have been a very satisfied patient of Scott Hoffman DDS for 35 years for all dental work, cleanings, crowns and even veneers. Dr. Hoffman continues to remain state-of-the-art with all his services and is proactive and communicative with his patients regarding potential or developing problems. When I moved to the Peninsula as a young professional in 1985, he came highly recommended by a professional colleague and friend. I have never looked elsewhere. Now he has been our family dentist and go-to for all things dental for 32 years, taking excellent care of my husband, Jeff, and two grown children, Brandon (30) and Lauren (28). Lauren now lives in CO, but Brandon is lives/works in the area and sees Dr. Hoffman regularly. I could not be more happy with the quality of service I have received from Scott Hoffman DDS. -Emily Risberg
Fabulous and friendly as always. Its so nice to be back, after the COVID shut down!
Mary is a true professional. She explained every step taken to clean my teeth, the pandemic precautions and how I could improve my hygiene.Thanks MaryAnd it’s always good to see Scott too.
Always a delight to see the wonderful staff and Dr. Hoffman.
First dental cleaning in the Covid-19 era, and the hygienist was well-organized, provided info and instructions about changes to the process, and everything went very well. The office was well-organized, and safe.
Dr Hoffman and his staff are the best! Ive been a patient since I was about 6 years old - and that was *a while* ago. Ive had numerous fillings and crowns over the years, as well as a root canal and Invisalign - and Scott has always been kind, efficient and professional. Highly recommend their office both for regular cleaning and special procedures!
Excellent care. Efficient. No pain!!
Friendly staff and Dr. Hoffman is always upbeat and interested in your health.
Best Dentist ever! Great work, super nice people
Very polite and caring staff. Knowledgeable physician. Thorough examination and recommendations.Extremely helpful.
Great as usual! Friendly staff. No-pain dentistry, thanks to Dr Hoffman!
Dr Hoffman is first class all the way. Such a complete professional showing compassion and care that always exceed my expectations. Simply the best
Always great service.
I have been seeing Dr. Hoffman since 2004. He is the best dentist you could ever find, very patient-centered. For example, when my crown didnt feel quite right to me, he had it remade immediately even though it wasnt made incorrectly! He understood that I didnt like the way it felt. It was too smooth and I like to have some ridges! It is a pleasant office with windows opening out into the garden and the staff is helpful. Highly recommended.
Scott Hoffman, DDS is not only the best Professional Dentist on the Mid Peninsula, he is a master conversationalist. His engaging and positive attitude makes it delightful to visit his office. Dr. Hoffman is a good listener and interested in what is going on with his patients lives. Even though busy, he takes the time to communicate. He has a great sense of humor and is not afraid to use it.
All of the staff are professional and inspire confidence. Warm and friendly, too!
I feel like every time I come in for an appointment everyone is smiling and having a good time. It puts me in a good mood especially if I’m there early in the morning. Scott really knows his stuff about teeth and will always help you. Highly recommend.
Dr. Hoffman and his team are highly professional, very experienced, and super-congenial.
Dr Hoffman is an incredible professional that is so thoughtful of patient’s needs. He’s been my dentist for over 25 years and whatever procedures I’ve needed have always been skillfully performed without any pain. He has an outstanding team of hygienists for periodic cleanings. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.
Dr. Hoffman is an outstanding dentist. Hes been our family dentist for twenty plus years. He is gentle, skilled and very professional. Dr. Hoffman always communicates well and patiently explains any dental issues. He helpfully calls to check in after certain procedures. He and the hygienists and office staff are warm and friendly and are good with my kids as well!
Lisa is consistently great. She gives me clear responses to my questions and is thorough and gentle with my teeth.Lisa, Dr Hoffman, and Deborah (at the front desk) demonstrate interest in me and my family, and they create a comfortable and inviting environment.The practice is COVID conscious and has implemented practices that make me feel very safe receiving care there.Highly recommend this practice.
Scott is a wonderful dentist, always has the latest equipment, and is afriendly face to watch as he works on your teeth. The entire staff are very professional and the office is a welcoming place.
Dr. Hoffman is the best!!!I wouldnt have teeth right now if not for his amazing work. And its as close to painless as dentistry gets. Hes very gentle and friendly. Come see him. Get him started talking golf.....hahahaPhil M
Great staff, led by Dr. Hoffman who has a tremendous amount of experience and gives you the best options for any teeth issues you may encounter. The front office staff is always friendly and kind. My teeth are done by Lisa who is a pleasant sight and makes you feel very comfortable and at ease when youre getting your teeth done. She is up to date with current events and doesnt talk dentistry the enitre time which can get boring, but rather current movies, events, and pop culture which is always fun. I look forward to my next visit! Keep up the good work guys!
Just did the basic clearning and exam but I thought the staff was pleasant and efficient, and the hygienist did a good job without discomfort.
Always good
As always Debra was very pleasant and very helpful with all my questions and concerns. Lisa cleaned my teeth and it was fabulous. I would recommend Dr. Hoffman all day everyday
Great dentist. Great staff. Have received nothing but outstanding care for almost twenty years.
Dr. Hoffman was so professional and was so compassionate! Took a great amount of time listening to my concerns ! I’m a physician myself and I totally understand what difference it makes for a patient when your doctor takes more or less time with you in the room!! He gave some reasonable recommendations and answers questions thoroughly!Ok! Now to Eva ! The dental hygienist! She’s the best I’ve ever had ! She’s so caring! Takes her time and so patient ! I was not their easiest patient as I have a very limited mouth opening but she was able to clean my teeth pretty well and was able to even take xrays with the significant limitations I had. She was giving me appropriate breaks in between cleaning so I don’t wear my jaw off. She really is great in what she does. So thank you everyone in the office ! You made visiting a dentist less scary ;) totally recommended to everybody.
Friendly, professional dental office with state of the art equipment. Dr. Scott Hoffman is excellent and I always get a thorough cleaning from Lisa. Great experience!
As always, I received consistently great service from the clinical staff and have been a patient for 30 years. The front desk staff needs some training on communication skills and tact!! I had a rude and embarrassing confrontation from the receptionist handling billing on my way out of the office.
Pleasant and professional place to go for dental help and advice. I feel comfortable when Im there and have gotten the help I needed. I give the experience a five star rating.
Dr. Hoffman routinely goes above and beyond for his patients. From his superlative dental care to his most considerate follow up phone calls, he is a true professional...and a pretty damn good conversationalist! Needless to say, I recommend his services without reservation.
Best dental care. I have known Scott for almost 30 years and totally trust my dental care to him and his team. Lisa was my hygienist today and she was fantastic.
I was a long term patient with Scott Hoffman, me and my entire family.My prior dentist was Dr. Tarr and he retired. I think I was in late high school or early twenties by then and Scott came in and took over. Both are excellent dentists and wonderful people in persona.My folks and sister still go to Scott, but many years ago (About 10+ years) I had to stop going to Scott because I had to leave my job and lost my dental ins. I obtained dental ins a few years later, after leaving my job, that isnt covered with Scott.My dentist is really far away and becoming less available. I recently went back to Scott due to this and other reasons. He found things, like a fractured tooth, not detected by my other dentist and a few other issues. I will be retaining Scott and his services.His entire cast and team are dynamite. So friendly, on it and helpful!Hey Scott??? Its good to be back!MK
Usually people get anxiety when going to their dentist. Dr Hoffman and team are so professional, friendly, and fun that I actually ENJOY visit to the dentist! They crack me up! They just got me in and out for two fillings in under any hour and now Im off to work feeling great!What can I say other than Dr Hoffman and team are the best. Full stop.
Excellent care all around! Very professional and always top notch. The best.
Eva was an awesome hygienist I look forward to my next 6 month cleaning
Our dentist of 37 years! Always a great experience!
As much as I dislike going to the dentist, Dr. Hoffman and his staff make the experience great. Everyone is so nice, appointments are on-time and care is kind and thorough!
Great staff, very friendly and efficient. The hygienist I had was a tab brusk, several of my teeth were painful and I dont normally have sensitive teeth.
Dr. Hoffman is incredible! So kind and genuine and he gave me real advice to help my dental issues. Great experience.
Excellent professional service which is the standard of his office. On time, safe practices with Covid-19 pandemic.
The best practice in the Silicon ValleyWhat can be said that hasnt been said? The finest dentist I have ever encountered and that says a lot as my father is a dentist. Run dont walk to see Dr Hoffman for your dental needs.
Excellent care, kudos to Tess and Eva especially
Besides being a great guy that always makes you feel welcome and appreciated, Dr. Hoffmans attention to detail and skill at his craft will ensure your teeth getting the care they deserve. His whole staff is great and will make your visit as pleasant as possible.
The staff was friendly and efficient. Dr Hoffman was personable and knowledgeable. I felt I was in excellent hands.
Ive been coming to Dr. Hoffmans office for the past 15 years. Ive never had a problem and he always goes the extra mile for his customers. We have a wide variety of dentists available to choose from with our health plan but have always opted to stay with him because of his professionalism, knowledge and great customer service.
Just had a cleaning appt with Lisa today. II have been seeing her for quite a few years and I love her! Shes gentle, patient and very easy to be with. Highly recommend her!
Good service and always on time. Get good explanations before we start so know what to expect. Thorough and efficient in getting you in and out in a timely manner and they make you feel comfortable.
Going to the dentist isnt usually something one looks forward to, but I actually do. I love Dr. Hoffman and his staff--most of whom have been with him for many years.It goes without saying that Dr. Hoffman and his staff are incredibly knowledgable, but they are also very pleasant, make you comfortable, and are very personable. Ive grown to know them over the years and actually look forward to an office visit.
I had a cleaning with Eva. She was great--gentle, kind, and great to talk to. Also it was nice to catch up with Dr. Hoffman. See you in 6 months!
I’m 70 years old and Dr. Hoffman is the most professional Dentest I’ve ever encountered. Very pleased with his work and his staff and experience. Thank you Scott.
Scott and Lisa and the entire office have always been wonderful. Its a combination of very professional and warm and inviting.
After 25+ years of visiting Scott Hoffman DDS, I can only say how fortunate I am to have such a professional staff taking care of all my dental health needs.
I have been seeing Dr. Hoffman since 1995. He is a wonderful dentist and human being. My family absolutely loves him. Everyone at the practice is wonderful and accommodating.
Ive been seeing Scott Hoffman for over 30 years and am consistently impressed with the service, quality and experience. Lisa is fantastic as well. Wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing a dentist.
Khalid was great when in for a yearly cleaning gave some pointer that I never tought about and Dr Scott Hoffman made my daughter so relax and not afraid one happy parent and child also the front desk was promp and great.
