When you need an oral surgeon in Hampton Roads, the last thing you want is to wonder if the practice down the road will actually take the time to know your situation. Residents across the region, from Smithfield’s rural stretches to the busy streets of Newport News, deserve access to surgical care that treats every patient like a neighbor rather than a number on a schedule.
At Goodove Oral Surgery & Dental Implants, we have been serving Hampton Roads since 2008, drawing patients from communities across the region because of the trust we have built through personalized, relationship-driven care. As an independent, community-focused practice, our surgeons, Dr. Scott R. Goodove and Dr. Peter Zagursky, make it a point to be accessible to patients and families directly. Whether you are in Smithfield, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Newport News, Hampton, or Norfolk, our offices in Virginia Beach and Chesapeake are ready to welcome you. We invite you to explore the full range of oral surgery procedures we offer and find the care you have been looking for.
The Hampton Roads region is home to some of the most distinct and tightly knit communities in Virginia, and we are honored to be a trusted resource for patients across this area. Each city and town brings its own character, and we believe everyone in the region deserves access to skilled oral surgical care without compromise.
Smithfield is known for its deep historical roots and its strong sense of community. We regularly see patients from Smithfield and the surrounding Isle of Wight County who come to us for everything from wisdom tooth removal to complex implant procedures. The drive to our offices is well worth it for patients who want a team that communicates directly with them and coordinates their care from consultation through recovery.
Suffolk is one of Virginia’s largest cities by land area, stretching from suburban neighborhoods to rural farmland. We see patients from across Suffolk who are looking for oral surgical care that goes beyond a standard referral. Our team accepts most major PPO insurance plans, Medicaid, TRICARE, and Veterans Affairs coverage, which means the financial side of care is far less of a barrier for Suffolk families. Patients coming to us for dental implants in particular appreciate our thorough consultations and our willingness to walk through every step of the process.
Portsmouth is a proud, historically rich city that sits at the heart of Hampton Roads. We serve Portsmouth residents who need oral surgical care ranging from wisdom teeth removal to bone grafting and sedation procedures. Patients in Portsmouth often comment on how much smoother their experience is when they have a practice that answers questions directly and follows through after surgery. Our surgical staff is CPR certified, and our team closely monitors every patient during and after procedures to keep safety and comfort at the center of every visit.
Newport News is a thriving city on the Virginia Peninsula, and we regularly welcome patients from the peninsula to our Virginia Beach and Chesapeake locations. Many Newport News patients come to us after learning they need an oral surgery procedure that their general dentist is not equipped to perform. The American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons recognizes that dental implant surgery, for example, is best performed by a surgeon with specialized training in bone, soft tissue, and the supporting structures of the jaw. Our team brings exactly that level of care to every implant case we take on.
Hampton is one of the oldest English-speaking settlements in the Americas, and its residents take pride in being part of a community with real history and character. We welcome patients from Hampton who need specialized oral care, including bone grafting, surgical extractions, and implant procedures. Whether your case is straightforward or complex, we take the time to understand your health history, your goals, and any concerns you have before moving forward.
Norfolk sits at the crossroads of Hampton Roads, home to a diverse population that includes military families, longtime residents, and patients referred from across the region. We welcome Norfolk patients who need surgical extractions, dental implants, and sedation-based procedures, and our Chesapeake office is a short drive across the water for anyone coming from the Norfolk side of the harbor. Our team accepts a wide range of insurance plans, including TRICARE and Veterans Affairs coverage, which makes us a natural fit for the many military-connected patients in the area.
Chesapeake is home to our second Goodove Oral Surgery & Dental Implants location, led by Dr. Peter Zagursky. Patients throughout Chesapeake and the surrounding south side of Hampton Roads have full access to the same board-certified surgical care, sedation options, and personal attention that has defined our practice since 2008, without the drive to Virginia Beach.
Choosing an oral surgeon is a decision that carries real weight. Our practice was founded on the principle of treating every patient the way we would treat our own family. Dr. Goodove and Dr. Zagursky both pick up the phone when a patient has questions, and our team does not put people on hold or transfer them to a corporate help line when something comes up. That kind of accessibility is what keeps patients driving from across the region to see us.
We are locally owned and operated by choice. That means our surgeons have the flexibility to make decisions based on what is right for each patient, not based on metrics or quotas. We accept a wide range of insurance plans and financing options, including CareCredit and Cherry Financing, so that quality care remains within reach for patients from all walks of life. Our doctors also hold operating privileges at Virginia Beach Ambulatory Surgery Center, Bon Secours Maryview Medical Center, and Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters, giving us the resources to handle procedures that require hospital-level care when needed. When you sit down with our team of doctors, you will find surgeons who are genuinely invested in your outcome, not just your appointment slot.
Whether you are coming from Smithfield, Suffolk, Portsmouth, Newport News, Hampton, Norfolk, or anywhere else across Hampton Roads, our Virginia Beach and Chesapeake offices are here to serve you. We are proud to be a hometown practice that has grown through trust, word of mouth, and a genuine commitment to the communities we live and work in.
You do not have to live next door to receive the kind of personalized care our patients have counted on for nearly two decades. Contact our office to schedule your consultation, and let our team show you why so many Hampton Roads families make the drive.
