Dr. Quan is the best! He's very attentive and caring. He's done a few of my crowns, and has done an outstanding job --they look so real! He is very knowledgeable and really knows his stuff. I have small difficult teeth to work on, so if you are hesitant, don't be! Beachfront dentistry is the best! And the hygienists are fantastic as well! Thank you for being my dentist, Dr. Quan! You've taken such great care if my teeth!

Dr Quan is an excellent and caring dentist. I had a small dental emergency and the office squeezed me in on a Friday. I have been a patron of this office for more than thirty years. Dr Hopkins is a wonderful dentist & the addition of Dr Quan brings further excellent talent and dental artistry to this exceptionally qualified and friendly group of professionals

Dr. Hopkins, my hygienist, Alicia, and the front office staff are all excellent and professional. When I first came to him on referral from my husband, I had multiple ptoblems with old crowns, fillings that needed replacements, etc. They first started out with deep cleaning which improved my gums which had receded slightly in some hard to reach spots. My mouth is small so it's not that easy to work on. They care about your health and are on top of what needs to be done to keep you healthy. I had to get some emergency appointments when a crown came out, and they took care of me right away. They keep on top of the billing which had been a problem for me with other dental offices. I have never had to wait in the office for my appointment. I am very happy that Dr. Hopkins is my dentist.
