This is an edit of my previous review of Dr Parvez who I saw 5 months ago & is no longer with the practice. Since then I had the need to see a dentist due to a filling falling out. I came to learn that the practice has been purchased and is now owned and run my the husband and wife team of Dr John and Meghan Walsh (Dr Meghan has been with the practice for years as the pediatric dentist ) I must say ~ there is a completely different vibe now that the Walsh’s have taken over. More patient centric and interactive. Dr John Walsh took care of my issue and made what would have been a stressful experience into a pleasure ! No pain no discomfort ~ completely interactive and good. Needless to say, I will be staying with New Hope Solebury Dental and recommending them to my friends who are looking for good dental care in the New Hope area. Thank you Dr Walsh ! Old review I have been a patient of New Hope Solebury Dental for years. I’ve had Invisalign there That has worked beautifully and I’m very pleased with, But lately every time I go for a cleaning, there is a new dentist, the last of which I was extremely taken aback by My cleaning was done by very nice dental associate, She was very thorough and pleasant When the time came for the dentist to come in and evaluate my teeth, the entire appointment took a different course. It was a sell job one that having been in sales all my life I have never seen so crudely and roughly performed. I take very good care of my dental health but by the time she was finished with me I would have had 4 crowns, bridges, night guards, implants and heaven knows what else. When I asked for explanations, I got word salad from the young Miss/Dr Parvez. I’m highly disappointed with this doctor and her pushing costly procedures on me that I don’t need. I’m hugely disappointed in the practice allowing such manipulation of patients. Perhaps the time has come for me to find a different practice.

Cannot say enough good things about this dental practice. From the friendly front desk (Riley) to the very capable dentist (Dr. Parvez), it’s top notch dental care and professionalism throughout.

Very kind and thoughtful staff. Took time to explain each procedure and ask questions. Felt very comfortable the entire time I was there.

Dr. Walsh was amazing with my son. She took the time to explain everything in a way that my 6 yr old would understand while being so kind and comforting.

This was our first time at this practice. Everyone is extremely friendly, knowledgeable and patient. I had an apt for my son ( 18m) and Dr. Meghan was an absolute delight. She was so warm and welcoming to me and my son. The technicians and front desk were all so friendly. What a great first impression. Thank you to this wonderful team.

We had a great experience here. The front desk, the hygienist and the doctor were all really wonderful. They were excellent at helping my two slightly nervous children feel at ease. I am so happy to have found this dentist! Thank you.

Amazing dental office. I've been going here for about 5 years now. The whole staff is so awesome and friendly. My temporary crown popped out a few days before Christmas. They took me in the very next day in the morning. Got me all fixed up AND took me a few limited early. When they schedule me for an appointment. That's the time I'm taken. They're is rarely a wait. Going to the dentist is never something someone looks forward to but going here I always feel comfortable and know I'm going to be treated great.

I’ve been going to New Hope dental associates for about 6 years now and am so very pleased with the office and staff. Lisa did an excellent job cleaning my sensitive teeth and making sure I was comfortable every step of the way. They never looked better. Dr. Stess was great as well and did a small procedure that was totally painless. The office staff is very friendly and helpful (especially when you lose your glasses and have no idea where you put them). I highly recommend this practice, especially to those people who might feel stressed, going to the dentist because everyone here makes you feel comfortable and they want you to have the best experience possible.

Such a rare find! Wish I had found this practice years ago, I never would have gone anywhere else. The dentist and all of the staff were so caring, personable and made it easy to get dental work, something I usually dread. They were truly amazing and eased all of my anxiety. SO much better than any dentist I’ve ever been to.

My toddler is so comfortable with the pediatric dentist here- wonderful care! I wish I could add more stars. I recently came with my two young children and their visits went great as usual. Towards the end, I started to feel sick and had to lay down to avoid passing out, but the entire office was extremely kind and helpful. I don’t know what I would have done without help alone with a baby and a 5 year old. I am very grateful to this wonderful team.

Wanted to say that Lisa was super awesome today. Dentists make me somewhat anxious and nervous. Lisa really helped keep me level throughout the procedure, and I'm very pleased to have had her. They took good care of me and everything went smoothly.

NHSD has had its ups and downs since the pandemic. I’m glade to say Parker was Captain of the Ship yesterday and Dr. Stess as always has great humor with exceptional skills! The new hygienist is spectacular but not sure of her name; Ivonna? Took great care of me and my teeth are healthier than EVER! 😃 The whole Staff was fun. So glad I’m here.

For an initial visit, I had a very positive experience. The staff were knowledgeable, polite, and courteous. There was very little wait time, and everything was explained to me very thoroughly. I am typically a self-proclaimed chicken when it comes to going to the dentist, but everyone was very nice today, making me feel more at ease.

This was the most thorough cleaning I have ever had. The hygienist took her time to really take care of my teeth, and everybody was very knowledgeable and helpful.

I love this practice. My boys and I are extremely happy with everything - service, dentist, and staff. My son has an issue with "gag relflex" and was very scared to go to the dentist - they were very accommodating and put him at ease. I also travel from New Jersey and it is well worth the trip - they fully understand my need for after school appointments and are always willing to help. The staff explains all of my services and costs and works well with my insurance. I'm extremely satisfied!!
