Her calm and gentle nature creates a relaxed dental environment for her patients, especially in patients who have dental anxiety.
Her calm and gentle nature creates a relaxed dental environment for her patients, especially in patients who have dental anxiety. She spends time educating her patients, informing them of their dental needs and ensuring both the patient and herself fabricate a treatment plan with the best plan of action for that individual person. She values esthetics and strives for a pleasing result, but not at the cost of function and longevity. With her time working in school-based health and being a mother herself, Dr. Hamel is comfortable treating patients of all ages.
Dr. Hamel moved to northern Kentucky eleven years ago to raise her family and considers northern Kentucky home. When she is not treating patients in the office, she is spending time with her husband, three children or two goldendoodles, Clark and Tucker. She enjoys anything HGTV, baking, traveling, event planning and considers herself a “foodie”.
