What are you proud of in your practice?

I'm really proud of our comfortable ambiance - it's not your typical practice that smells, looks and feels like a dental clinic. It's an office that makes you feel like you're home. Neck and lower back pillows for the chair, aromatherapy to help relax our patients, Netflix and music choices at your fingertips, and even a touch of lip balm at the beginning of your appointment to make sure you don't leave with that chap-lipped feeling nobody likes!

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?

I love performing cosmetic transformations on our patients. The look in their eyes when they see their beautiful smile at the end of the visit really makes me love my job!

    I am so happy to have found this dentist in Toronto! After moving from my hometown 3 yrs ago I had to find a new dentist in the city that I could trust. After 2 unsatisfied visits at other clinics, that welcome and treatment that I received from Dr. Hobbs and her team was amazing. Definitely won't regret it and am already looking forward to my next visit - and I never thought I'd say that one day!

    Had a great experience from the start to finish. Great hygienist and dr Hobbs took the time to explain my x rays in detail (never had a dentist do this before!)

  • Awesome experience visiting Dr. Hobbs
    Reviewed on November 9th, 2017  •  Verified patient
    Considering I decided on visiting Dr. Hobbs based on proximity and her having an open appointment the next morning, I pretty much hit the jackpot. Dr. Hobbs and her staff erased any apprehension around my visit with their warmth and professionalism. Dr. Hobbs took the time to give me every detail I needed and I never felt like anything was rushed or skipped over. Once her work was done, Dr. Hobbs provided a referral for some more specialized work on my wisdom teeth, which I really appreciated.

  • Good, but no direct billing
    Reviewed on October 27th, 2017  •  Verified patient
    Came in, filled out papers wrote insurance info. Told her about my last negative open care experience as anxious client. She did her best to make me feel at ease. I was told to purchase a night guard for 273$ and pay a down payment. I got a filling put in and my total bill for the visit came to $559. They do not bill directly to insurance which was my only annoyance. Also - no care package and I was praying for a tongue cleaner! (Haha not relevant though). No direct billing was my only reason for not giving 5 stars. Otherwise a very pleasant experience and as an anxious client whom has a dentist phobia, I felt as if I was chatting with a good friend.

  • Relatable
    Reviewed on October 6th, 2017  •  Verified patient
    Glad I chose Dr.Hobbs as a dentist just because of the youth she has and the relatablitily she has to me as a student. She did not discriminate me at all and was really chill about everything I said to her, bad or good. Do not regret the decision I made to stick with her. She will definitely be my dentist for a while, can not picture myself with anyone else. Thank you Dr. Hobbs for making me feel better about my checkups than I usually am!
