Feb 15, 2019

An outstanding example of treatment and care in the community.

Feb 6, 2019

I have been going to Homer Dental Center (Dr. Hodnik) for at least 15 years and have always found there service to be excellent. The staff is courteous, friendly and really take an interest in you personally. I would recommend them to anyone. I especially would like to recognize Jenny for her care.

As always, quick and painless cleaning and exam. Friendly and professional staff.

Dec 6, 2018

Thank you -- as always -- for your wonderful, kind services. Homer is lucky to have you and your team.

Nov 23, 2018

I don't dread going to the dentist since I've been going to Homer Dental Care.

Nov 22, 2018

As always I was greeted warmly by thr receptionists, and I was seen in a timely manner. The hygienists, assistants and Drs are professional, caring and genuinely nice. Vickey is my dentist of choice, and I am willing to drive for over an hour have my teeth cared for by Vickey and her awesome team.

The entire staff is friendly, attentive, efficient and professional. They’ve always gone out of their way to accommodate my dental needs. An appointment feels like a visit with caring friends. I’m also quite confident that they provide the most up to date techniques and state of the art treatments available anywhere.

Oct 24, 2018

As always, I was greeted by name and seen on time. Service was quick and completed with no wasted time.

Oct 12, 2018

Very relaxing easy going office and staff Thanks for everything

Sep 24, 2018

TImely, kind, gentle, and reassuring. So appreciate Xellent dental care and look forward to cleanings by Jennie!

Sep 6, 2018

I was a bit nervous, but was greatly relieved that the root canal procedure was not as momentous as I thought it might be. The dentist was very gentle and reassuring. Highly recommended!

Jun 21, 2018

As expected, my visit was relaxing, successful and professional. As a kid I hated the dentist. Now it is no different than any other medical type event. No big deal.

May 17, 2018

I love that Dr Hodnik reviews my X-rays with me! I’ve never had a dentist sit down and explain things to me like she does.

May 2, 2018

I had a host of possible dental concerns that would have been very expensive, especially as I am a self-pay patient . My immediate concern was whether a formerly crowned tooth with a recent root canal - was the crown still useable?? Would I have to pay another $xxxx to have a new one made? Dr. Hodnik took her time reviewing my recent dental x-rays in detail with me and answering my many questions and concerns. I was greatly relieved that my expensive quote from another local dentist were not emergencies and no issues that need to be immediately addressed. My original crown was still good, no expensive replacement needed. She advised to use caution in dental care and decisions . Dr. Hodnik also said "....I'm helping people preserve their teeth" She has also taken excellent care of my sister who is disabled and needs extra care and sensitivity in her dental work. And lastly she discounted my total bill (I didn't even ask)- while I was refused such courtesy (even though I DID ask for a discount) by my former dental office. Thank You Dr. Hodnik!!!!

Apr 25, 2018

I appreciate the lady who cleaned my teeth, she was very efficient and took good care of me.

Apr 20, 2018

I like the emailed reminders and the fact that I can reply. Often you receive reminders but have no way to communicate back to the sender.

Apr 6, 2018

A good visit. I was seen before my scheduled time and all treatment actions were fuly explained before they occurred.

Mar 31, 2018

Not sure what would happen to my tooth after the adjustment but it became extremely sensitive to pressure. Couldn’t chew anything for a couple days and the most I could chew was mashed potatoes. Had to take Advil the first day and a half. It is slowly getting less sensitive and could handle cooked potatoes and carrots today but had to keep the hamburger to the other side of my mouth. I assume it is going to keep getting better, if not I’ll check in with you.

Mar 12, 2018

Fine care and professional help

Mar 9, 2018

Dec 7, 2017

Having tarter scrapped off my teeth is not my favorite thing to do, but Dr Hodnik's office makes the experience as pleasant as possible with smiling faces and gentle hands.

Dec 7, 2017

Excellent! Love you guys...

Dec 4, 2017

My visit to Dr. Vicki Hodnik's office, recently, was comfortable, on time, and thorough. Dr. Hodnik has been my dentist for several years and has always put my best dental care above all other considerations. I have recommended Dr. Hodnik to several friends. Her advice, has always put my dental care above all.

Nov 29, 2017

I appreciate never having to wait, always being greeted as if I'm a friend, knowing that all of the team are up to date on the latest methods and technology, that you understand my anxiety about being there and make me feel as if I'm there just for fun!

Nov 23, 2017

The professionalism and compassion for the patient exhibited by the doctor and staff is the quintessential example of how health care providers can and should be.

Nov 20, 2017

Jenny was awesome as always- professional and personable. She remembers everything about about our family- full of stories and humor that made the time go by quickly.

Sep 15, 2017

Our new patient experience was superior in every regard! Dr. Hodnik and her staff are extremely knowledgeable and professional, and enjoy educating their patients. This is, by far, the best dental treatment we have ever received.

Aug 26, 2017

You all make the dreaded deal visit so informative, professional and most helpful. Connie, especially, is so hard working and so nice.

Aug 24, 2017

Oh dear me. What a treat to be back at Homer Dental Center. They are so welcoming, helpful, professional. It feels like home. And the care is the best. From checking in for my appointment to having the scheduled procedure, everything is so easy. Plus, it's a modern, state-of-the-art facility. I recommend it to ALL my friends and family.

Aug 16, 2017

The entire staff at Dr. Hodnik's office is professional, friendly, and very helpful. I am willing to make the hour long drive to Homer to have my dental work done by Dr. H and her staff.

Jul 14, 2017

I Love the kindness of you staff, they are fun, but also very professional. I have never had a dental check up as thoroughly done as the one by Dr. Hodnik. Thankyou for you excellent care.

Jul 7, 2017

Very friendly and informative! I wish I lived here full time so I could continue to receive dental care here! Highly recommended!

Jun 30, 2017

Dr. Hodnik is a caring dentist .. She is very thorough, detail oriented, and gentle .. She took time to examine my teeth and explain things to me in a clear and detail way no other dentist ever has .. If you or your children are afraid of going to a dentist, go to Dr. Hodnik .. You won't be afraid after that.

May 13, 2017

Always friendly, professional service. I feel like the team cares about my dental care and will ask me questions to make sure that I feel good about my teeth.

May 7, 2017

Its always a pleasure to visit your clinic and your staff is always friendly and helpful.

May 7, 2017

What wonderful visit, comfortable, quick and left with great information.

Apr 19, 2017

Best dentist visit I've ever had! Listened carefully to my budget parameters, and current dental issues. Fixed two teeth very reasonably, and are providing a reasonable plan we can afford! Wow! Didnt expect such great care and service from the staff and doctor😀

Apr 7, 2017

I learned so much during this visit that I think my nerves might actually have been calmed to the point that I can actually, just maybe, look forward to my next appointment. No kidding, this may actually be the first time I am looking at preventative dental visits as a possibility. Till now I would only go when I was convinced something was terribly wrong. Not only do I see a benefit with checking in with folks as experienced as this, I finally have a trustworthy, knowledgeable group to go to. I'm smiling.

Mar 24, 2017

Dr. Hodnick and her staff are all amazing. They are friendly and efficient from the beginning to the end of every visit.

Mar 23, 2017

Very friendly and comfortable

Mar 18, 2017

#1 customer service. Jenny is great!..

Feb 24, 2017

Thanks so much for dealing so pleasantly with my lateness. I am trying to get my act together. I especially appreciate the warm, fuzzy feeling exuded by everyone in the office!!!!

Jan 21, 2017

I appreciate the reminders I receive prior to my appts.

Jan 12, 2017

You all are wonderful and I appreciate the specialized treatment!

Jan 12, 2017

I actually love going to the dentist! As long as the dentist is Vickey Hodnik! Vickey and her staff make me feel cared for and appreciated! A-one dental care!!

Dec 17, 2016

I've been going to Dr. Hodnik for close to 15 years now. So I needless to say I'm very happy the dental care I receive there. No need to look elsewhere for quality care.

Dec 15, 2016

We just moved to Homer and my tooth went bad. Dr. Hodnik's staff worked me in within a day. I had a schedule conflict so they offered to break my visit into 2 visits so I could attend a meeting. The entire staff are all very nice and made me feel welcome. More importantly they explain everything well. My fear with dentists is that they attempt- "over-sell" you the gamut of expensive procedures. I was very pleased with Dr. Hodnick as she went over every single tooth with me and explained the status of my teeth. Surprise, everything was good. When we got to the problem tooth she quickly found a hole in a crown. She took a very conservative approach stating that she can just repair the existing crown and then watch it over the next year. I really appreciated her conservative approach that save me unnecessary trauma and money even though I have good dental insurance.

Dec 3, 2016

Another excellent experience at the Homer Dental Center. Jenny and Dr. Hodnik always take great care of me. I feel comfortable, relaxed and in very professional hands. Plus they are fun and interesting people. I actually enjoy going to their dentist office. Chuck Giza

Dec 2, 2016

Staff was professional, polite and personable. Happy with the work and enjoyed reminiscing with Vicki about mutual friends.

Dec 1, 2016

The whole team at Dr. Hodnik's office has changed my view (a dreadful one) about going to the dentist. Professional, gentle, thorough and friendly, with a real knack for helping me navigate not only a dental plan, but one that's compatible with my insurance. Thanks, ladies!

Oct 26, 2016

Friendly helpful staff. Comfortable atmosphere, no need for anxiety here.

Oct 14, 2016

I came into the office because I was experiencing pressure in a tooth . The pressure was causing headaches and grouchiness. I could feel a ragged edge along the tooth and didn't want it to turn into a root canal . I was happy to see that Dr. Hodnik was not eager to rip into it ,but rather took a wait and see approach as there was no sign of infection. I am trying hard not to grind my teeth but still am having some pressure.If it get worse I will be back in for another check.

Oct 12, 2016

I've been a patient for 19 years. I have appreciated the longevity of Dr Hodnick's employees. I think I've had 3 different hygienists in that time and can only remember Connie at the front desk. This continuity of people and routines makes me comfortable and speaks highly of the practice. Dr Hodnick is personal, professional, and my dental work is all holding up! Thank you all so much!

Oct 7, 2016

Love the way my teethe feel after an Ace cleaning with Jenny!

Oct 2, 2016

It was a great visit as always. I got into my appointment on time, was met and greeted by multiple staff who knew me and called me by name. The cleaning was done professionally and without pain.

Sep 29, 2016

I've been a dental patient here for about 8 years. The staff is always professional and friendly. Appointments have always been on time. Dr. Hodnik is a very good Dentist. They managed to fit me in very quickly last year when I had a broken crown. I would highly recommend Dr. Hodnik's practice.

Sep 22, 2016

It was great. Was comfortable. Nice conversation. Felt at home. Thanks

Sep 7, 2016

Everything was just great!

Sep 1, 2016

as always a very enjoyable relaxing visit

Aug 11, 2016

So good to see you all! Thanks for the second opinion Vicky. I appreciate your input and professionalism. Have a good rest of summer. Sue J

Aug 11, 2016

I got in to see the dentist within 2 days of calling to make an appointment. I was greeted with friendliness, and got in to see the hygienist and dental assistants very quickly. I hadn't been to the dentist in a couple of years, and the appointment was a long one, The time passed very pleasantly, and I had a lovely visit with the doctor as well as the other staff. They couldn't have been nicer. I felt very well taken care of, my teeth and the rest of me.

Jul 29, 2016

This office has always made me feel comfortable. Your team is special. Thank you for putting my fear to rest.

Jul 25, 2016

Excellent care and expertise!

Jul 21, 2016

I've never liked going to the dentist. Dr. Hodnik and all her staff make a trip to the dentist a very stressless experience. Jenny is great with teeth cleaning!

Jul 15, 2016

Very Professional office and staff

Jul 15, 2016

The use of Modern Technologies in the processing of appointments is great. And WRT to billing Connie is Number One!

Jul 13, 2016

I love everything about this dental office. Excellent and compassionate care. Above and beyond.

Jul 9, 2016

The Hygienist was very professional although I arrived almost 15 minutes late(!). She worked fast but was still very thorough. I look forward to seeing her on my next visit.

Jul 8, 2016

Courteous, friendly, competent as usual Great folks knowing what, where, and when to do their jobs.

Jun 11, 2016

The experience was not satisfying. Did try to have someone look into the issue mentioned by the hygienist last August, nobody at your office could locate information regarding this - no notes were found... A ex-ray was taken, to be sent "in" for evaluation. No feed-back ever came. When inquiring on several occasions, I never did receive a call back. The dentist in Anchorage mentioned the impurity showing on the ex-ray they took, told me to have this looked into. I again asked about this at your office. Friday, with a long research done to find out what is happening, nothing much was discovered. It is strange, that on this issue so little was accomplished over the past 10 month. Now there is discomfort in the region mentioned that could have been avoided.

May 15, 2016

Fast efficient service, took me back promptly,

Apr 16, 2016

Am always very pleased with my services here, love the staff and the care me and my kids receive.

Apr 13, 2016

There are things in the bag of dental goodies that I do not use such as the dental floss. I don't know if it is necessary to give those items to everyone, this might help to reduce costs.

Apr 9, 2016

Thanks for working me in...

Apr 8, 2016

Vicky is great and everyone of her staff are professional. I trust them with my teeth.

Mar 24, 2016

Always very pleased with the service provided.

Mar 21, 2016

The dental tech -- Rhianna was her name I think -- was efficient without being brusque, and the cleaning went fast, and without discomfort. She was engaging and positive in her evaluation.

Mar 5, 2016

Enjoyed the staff and greatly appreciated the care. It was one of the best oral exams I have ever had. Thankyou.

Mar 5, 2016

Dr. Hodnick was not in the office to perform my scheduled dental exam.

Feb 25, 2016

I come from a long way to see Dr. Hodnik. She and her staff are great. I would recommend them to anyone.

Feb 25, 2016

great hygienist, nice having the treatment plan to use to plan for my care and how to pay for it. great care with Dr. Hodnik as always...thanks

Feb 24, 2016

Jenny does an excellent job of cleaning teeth! Would highly recommend and would not go to anyone else!

Feb 12, 2016

I always feel welcome when I come to the Homer Dental Clinic From the desk greeters to Jennifer and Dr.Hodnik. It is always a good visit. They make everything as comfortable as possible and always answer questions concerns and have great advice. I am happy !!! Donna Fenske

Feb 6, 2016

any appointment with you is a great experience

Jan 29, 2016

Courteous and professional staff that fully explained everything during the visit.

Jan 28, 2016

It was a great experience all around. From the moment I called to the time I left the office everyone was so helpful and friendly. I was seen within a half an hour of calling with my tooth pain. The problem was diagnosed and clearly explained to me with a plan of action. I can't thank you enough and will definitely recommend your practice.

Jan 24, 2016

Every staff member I encountered was friendly and helpful. My hygienist, Jenny, is knowledgeable and was able to answer all my questions to my satisfaction. The visit was very pleasant.

Jan 23, 2016

Your team always makes me feel more like an old friend than a patient; yet they are very professional. I'm confident I'm in the best of hands in your practice.

Jan 23, 2016

Thanks Chrisie!! Next time I hope there is more time to clean all of your teeth--not just the front ones:)

Jan 13, 2016

I am so impressed that Connie called me before I left for my appointment and let me know they were running a half hour late. Ive never had a call like that. KUDOS!!

Dec 17, 2015

Much appreciate the professional and friendly dental care.

Dec 16, 2015

Very professional and awesome!

Dec 10, 2015

Thank you for being so caring. I'm inspired to work harder on my tooth care and diet thanks to your great attitude. See you Thurs. Laura

Dec 6, 2015

Connie is awesome WRT Insurance Processing. She ALWAYS gets it right!

Nov 14, 2015

Was very impressed with my first visit and really can't find any negatives or recommend any improvements based on the visit. Looking forward to my follow and future cleaning visits.

Nov 7, 2015

Service was great, especially since I did it not have an appt.

Oct 30, 2015

Great overall experience and I have already highly recommend Homer Dental Center to a co-worker who called and made an appointment with your practice today!

Oct 20, 2015

It's always nice to see old friends and get good dental work done.

Oct 17, 2015

I absolutely loved that Dr Hodnik explained the x-rays to me. First time I knew what I was looking at. Keep up the great work everyone!

Oct 10, 2015

I saw Connie at the desk and Jenny cleaned my teeth. We always have things to chat about besides my teeth, but your office is professional and I always know that I'm getting good care. Thank you.

Oct 7, 2015

I have never had a more gentle excellent cleaning. Nicely done

Sep 26, 2015

I wish I had been given some choices before Dr. Hodnick proceeded with her work. I might have opted to have the tooth removed rather than filled - I would have liked to have been told how much that would cost vs the filling. It's my money and my mouth, right? $400 was a lot for a tooth I'm not attached to saving.

Sep 25, 2015

I wish the technician who got me ready for my filling had introduced herself. A small thing but I had never met her before. She did an excellent job; I guess I'm picky.

Sep 23, 2015

Dr. Hodnik is our new official family dentist!

Sep 19, 2015

Ryder had a great first visit! Sailey and Alec both had a positive experience. They were both excited to share details of their visit. Thank you for making it good!

Aug 29, 2015

The only comment I have is this...Thank You, only said that to one other dentist office before. I have already referred another client. Again, thank you, you've got a great team - thank you!

Aug 28, 2015

It's is always uplifting to be greeted by all on the way to the chair.

Aug 28, 2015

Jenny is an awesome hygienist...always thorough, friendly, and gentle. She has great answers to my questions. Connie is friendly and efficient. Couldn't ask for anything more.

Aug 21, 2015

I received friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and gentle service as always!

Aug 19, 2015

Wow I connected with the staff and to me that makes a great visit

Aug 17, 2015

I have no criticisms , I'm very happy with all aspects of my care I recieve there. Wonderful staff.

Aug 14, 2015

Everyone was super friendly, just like always!

Aug 2, 2015

Connie was friendly, helpful, and great with billing and scheduling. She always has been and I really do appreciate it in her. The tech that filmed my teeth was also easy to be with and I feel did a good job. And of course I liked Dr.Hodnik, for her reliably good dental work, professionalism, and enjoyable personality.

Jul 25, 2015

Excellent staff and service. Thank you!!

Jul 23, 2015

I met your new dental assistant. She was personable, efficient and pleasant. She was at ease with herself and appears to be a quick learner. Nice to have her on the team!

Jul 3, 2015

The hygienist I had was very thorough and did a good job in cleaning my teeth.

Jun 27, 2015

Jenny is always friendly and very professional.

Jun 24, 2015

Best service I have ever seen in a dental office.

Jun 20, 2015

thank you mouth feels 'balanced' now thank you mouth feels 'balanced' now!!

Jun 20, 2015

I like to visit with Vickie!!!!!

Jun 13, 2015

I wish I could have my root canal done here. The dental hygienist who cleaned my teeth was very informative.

Jun 11, 2015

Jenny is a wonderful hygienist. Smart, kind and able to not only evaluate my oral health but help me improve. Connie is always welcoming and highly efficient, telling me exactly what my insurance covers. I do think you send way too many reminders--3 text messages and two emails is excessive for one teeth cleaning. Thanks!

Jun 11, 2015

I felt comfortable and not guilty for letting so much time pass between visits. Thank you so much. Pat

Jun 8, 2015

Awesome service all around!

Jun 8, 2015

Outstanding treatment and service in a comfortable setting. I no longer dread a trip to the dentist office.

Jun 7, 2015

We are willing to drive 80 miles to use your great dervices!

Jun 4, 2015

I always love going to the dentist! Living in a small town where you know your dentist by her first name, as well as the receptionist and the hygienist, is pretty great! Jenny and Dr. Hodnick always explain exactly what is going on with my teeth and really take time to make sure I am getting the best and most appropriate treatment, plus they just get to know me as a person. I never dread a visit to the dentist!

Jun 2, 2015

Your whole team is always very warm and professional. I am happy with the care I receive and am put at ease by the friendly atmosphere.

May 29, 2015

You have a great crew, particularly Winnie and Christie. Read Winnie's husband's book about Winnie. I enjoy listening to both of them once you get off business talk. Actually, your story of how you got to this place is just as interesting. This follow-up is a nice practice.

May 20, 2015

Everybody was great! Thanks so much!

May 15, 2015

All are true Professionals!!

May 15, 2015

Maybe we won't know what the actual problem with the old filling was but the new filling has cured the hot/cold sesitivity and so far no problem with pressure from chewing. Thanks Bob

May 9, 2015

As always, a dental appointment that is enjoyable.

May 6, 2015

Love everyone in the office!

May 4, 2015

I wouldn't change a thing. I have always been very uncomfortable going to a dentist until I met Dr. Hodnick and her fabulous team. Each of them make you feel very special. I can't thank them enough for all they do. Thank you for your caring a wonderful treatment.

May 4, 2015

You are all always amazing!! I recommend you to anyone & everyone, especially anyone asking about where to take kids. The way you allow them to take part in the experience really reduces potential anxiety for them. My kids love coming to the office, & have no fear.

Apr 24, 2015

You make it nearly fun to visit the dentist. Thank you!

Apr 23, 2015

Jenny is wonderful and we love her!!!

Apr 18, 2015

Everyone was friendly and seemed glad to have me there. Everything was explained fully and I was encouraged to ask questions if I didn't understand something. Best dental treatment experience I've ever had.

Apr 17, 2015
