MINNEOLA, FL — A family-owned dental clinic in Minneola has quietly distinguished itself in a market dominated by corporate chains, achieving a 4.9-star rating across major review platforms. Neola Dental has received more than 217 verified patient reviews and boasts a 99% satisfaction rate.
Founded by Dr. Josaida Contreras, a Doctor of Dental Surgery with nearly 20 years of experience, Neola Dental emphasizes personalized care. “We wanted to provide the kind of care we would want for our own families,” Dr. Contreras said. “That means taking time with each patient and creating a comfortable environment — not rushing anyone.”
The practice, which is women-owned and Latino-owned, has been recognized for its inclusive approach, welcoming families from diverse backgrounds across Lake County.
Neola Dental has invested in advanced technology uncommon in clinics of its size, including 3D cone beam imaging for implants, digital scanners to replace traditional molds, and software that allows patients to preview treatment outcomes. Patients also praise its “Comfort Menu,” featuring warm blankets, aromatherapy, and stress-relief tools. One Google reviewer noted, “It’s more like going to a spa than a dental office.”
The clinic provides comprehensive dental services under one roof, including preventive care, cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, Invisalign, root canal therapy, and emergency care. Dr. Contreras, who has specialized endodontic training, performs root canals in-house — a procedure often referred to outside specialists at other practices.
Neola Dental accepts most major PPO insurance plans and offers CareCredit financing. Saturday hours and same-day emergency appointments make it a convenient option for working families. One patient shared, “My daughter loved it so much she immediately asked if this could be our main dental office. Businesses like this restore your faith — real people who care, not places that make you feel like just another number.”
