Mark A. O'Hara DDS, PC

I started going to Dr. Clark because my 3 year old son needed a dentist. I was so impressed with how he and the staff treated my son that I decided to try them out myself. It was a fantastic decision. I knew I needed some fillings going in, which I was dreading. But, Dr. Clark gave me the best experience I've had in a dental chair. The pain and discomfort were minimal, and he walked me through every step of what he was doing. And, the whole staff made me comfortable throughout. Best of all, it's been a few weeks since I had my fillings, and everything feels great. These guys are great. They're organized, the office has a warm, inviting feeling, and I've had nothing but great interactions with everyone that works there. Good people, and they do great work. My son and I will trust our teeth to Dr. Clark for the long term!

WOW! I took my 77-yr old mom for an appointment. I researching online and called many dentists in the area to find the right one. So happy I chose Heritage Family. Mom was terrified of the dentist and had not been in a few years as a result. From the first contact with Kelly, the amazing office manager, to the greeting received from the entire staff, I was blown away. Monica helped me bring my wheelchair bound mom into the office (in the rain), then masterfully took my mom's x-rays. Dr. Clark is warm and friendly, super knowledgeable and really patient. He thoroughly examined my mom before and after the cleaning and gently walked her through what the x-rays revealed. Terry, the hygienist, is a true professional. She gets a Gold Star for the time, effort, and care she took with my mom's cleaning. There was a lot to do and she even instructed my mom on the proper method of brushing. The entire experience was so great, my mom wants to go back! Thrilled with Heritage Family's dentist and staff. Highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this dental office as a new patient. I say pleasure because I actually like going to the dentist - growing up with a dentist that happens to be your favorite uncle will do that to you. I am fairly picky when it comes to someone digging around in my mouth because I'm used to certain tools and techniques and this office did not disappoint. The front office staff was welcoming when I arrived and the new patient paperwork was easy to complete. The hygenist, Terri, was very thorough and informative at each step in the cleaning process which I appreciated (my teeth still feel smooth and clean and this was 2 months ago!!!). Dr Clark, who I believe is new to town, was truly a joy to be around. I wasn't nervous because I come from the Midwest where we have fluoride in the water but for those of you with cavities I think you will find that he is very easy to talk to and has a great sense of humor. He told jokes the entire time which would put anyone who is nervous about dental work at ease. The entire visit went so well that I sent some family and friends their way and they too came back with rave reviews. Looking forward to my biannual check up. Thanks team!!!!

The office staff, hygienists, and Dr. Clark and Dr. O'Hara are friendly, knowledgeable, and very efficient. They also take a lot of pride in the work that they do and genuinely care about their patients. I developed sudden jaw pain following a car accident last fall. Even though they were pretty booked, they moved things around so I could get seen that very day. This is just one example of the great things they do to care for their patients.

I've known this family for years! Such an amazing family; I use the term "family" not only because the office works so cohesively and genuinely care for each other in caring for their patients (as a family would), but also because Dr Tyler Clark (Dr Ohara's son-in-law) has joined the practice! My family is excited for our trek down from Portland twice a year for me to continue my care under his guidance and to establish my tots with him as well!

5 or so years ago I decided to find a dentist close to my home in the SW Hills(Eugene) for my elderly (95+) mother and myself instead of trekking over to Springfield to my long-time dentist. Dr. O'Hara pulled several of my mother's teeth which may or may not have been necessary; hard to say. After an expensive teeth-cleaning and xrays on myself, Dr. O'Hara informed me that I was in dire need of a crown and other work on a certain tooth and it couldn't wait more than a month or 2 at the most. Something felt "off" about this so I returned to my original dentist for a second opinion. He could find nothing wrong with the whole tooth area in question. All these years later, all that has been found is a cavity that I just had filled and still no need for a crown in the area. Perhaps the latest equipment, large staff and nice office have something to do with why I so urgently "needed" an expensive crown? This is my experience. Hopefully in the ensuing years things have changed.

Horrible patient care. My wife left her appointment in tears from Dr. O'Hara's rough and careless patient care. Did he write or ask if he could do anything to make it better? No, he simply sent her a letter dismissing her from his practice. My wife is a health care provider as well who cannot imagine treating her patients the way Dr. O'Hara does. To top it all off her crown was not put in properly and now she has to go to another Dentist to have it fixed. There are plenty of dentist options out there--go to someone who deserves your business and will treat you with care and respect. Dr. O'Hara clearly doesn't.
