I everything about Community of Hope! They are in the Community to help and give hope, and that's what they do and they do it well As a senior citizen, I appreciate them so much! Being on a small retirement, fixing my teeth was on the back burner cause old teeth cost a lot to fix! Thanks to Community of Hope and the outstanding dentists that donate their time and services, my mouth looks good and healthy The customer service is also outstanding!
I've never been treated like I don't have a right to come there and I'm always greeted with a smile! They call if the dentist has an emergency and they quickly make me another appointment! I love these guys!

Tried to make a mental health appointment 3 weeks in a row. Their automated call system answer the phone and hung up on me and I tried to call back and left my number so it would hold my place in line and when they called me back it rang once and then hung up before I could answer. It's really defeating for someone who's trying to find help for their mental health to be told over and over again they can't get help.
I hope that whoever runs there account will read this and will we reconsider the way that they do their automated appointment system. It's really discouraging and I hope other people read this and choose to try to go somewhere else first instead of trying here cuz it's heartbreaking.

Save yourself the headache, go somewhere else. I spent a month calling and trying to get an appointment. I finally got an appointment! 12 hours before my appointment (after I'd already taken time off work) Community of Hope called me and claimed the provider would not be showing up to my appointment so they have to cancel. When I pressed them and claimed it's their responsibility to find me a provider, she told me I was lucky to get an appointment in the first place!
She also admitted to lying about the provider canceling, later claiming they just double book time slots, then cancel if they have to. Trust me, this is not the kind of provider you want to be caring for you. Poor leadership, poor management, poor customer service.

I have been going here for years, and since the pandemic they have hired new people, younger people with not much experience, I took my 3 year old here for his shots, which a younger girl did and from experience I've always seen my kids stuck with a needle and she didn't properly stick him, late that day I had to rush him to the ER because he couldn't walk and was crying so bad.
Then on top of that I can pregnant and have an emergency and I can never get on the phone with an actual doctor for 2 minutes to express what's going on for help. You have to wait 3 days just for a phone about to talk about something that will Literally take 2 seconds. It may look nice but the doctors there and staff rarely have have any experience in what they are doing. They can't tell you exactly what a certain rash is or anything. Extremely disappointed.

I had my eldest daughter two years ago with a different midwife program and although I enjoyed the program, the birth was very traumatic and I ended feeling they didn't do all they could to help me. With COH midwives I felt heard and cared for. I had a beautiful birthing experience under their supervision with my second born and I thank them so much for all they've done. Also shout out to Hannah for always checking in and making sure we had everything we needed including formula and diapers!

Community of Hope in NE is my PCP and I went to the Conway Center location today for dental care. The building is gorgeous and it is not difficult to find on street parking. I was greeted by a smiling face and pleasant person that directed me to the second floor for the dentist. I filled out necessary paperwork and waited to be seen. They were running behind but I was kept informed about the extended wait.
The dental tech was very proffesional and appropriate. She did all the x-rays and I waited to see the dentist. The dentist, Dr. Thomas, was very curteous and proffesional. I felt very comfortable about her competency. She made thorough examination and explained in detail her treatment plan. I will be returning and look forward to the remaining of my treatment. I would recommend Community of Hope, Conway center.
