Dr. Joby Chaluparambil, DMD

Dr. Chaluparambil, who also goes by “Dr. C”, was born and raised in Texas City, TX.  Dr. C proudly attended Texas A&M University and graduated with the class of 2007. He graduated with a degree in Bio-Medical Sciences with a minor in business. After his time at Texas A&M, he attended the University of North Texas Health Science Center for his masters in Medical Sciences. His passion for the community took him to the University of Texas Health Science Center for a Masters in Public Health. During that time he completed a practicum working on curriculum and process improvements in the bioinformatics department of the UT dental school. He then joined the VA as the virtual tumor board coordinator helping with the coordination of care for our nation’s veterans. Dr. C married childhood sweetheart Ansela and moved to Utah where Dr. C then pursued his passion by attending Roseman University College of Dentistry.

Dr. C’s enthusiasm and passion for dentistry started after his time at Texas A&M where he could periodically work with and shadow Dr. Thomas in her office. From his interactions with patients and staff, Dr. C instantly fell in love with dentistry due to its dynamic nature. Dr. C has always had a thirst to learn, and with science and technology constantly evolving around healthcare and dentistry, it was a seemingly perfect fit. From there, Dr. C packed up and moved to Utah to attend Roseman University. This is where Dr. C was able to gain significant amounts of knowledge in endodontics, oral surgery, and implant placements. In an effort to broaden his scope and gain valuable experience, he took advantage of opportunities ranging from local community health clinics to Indian Health Service clinics in Wewoka, Oklahoma. All of these experiences helped give Dr. C valuable exposure to perform complex procedures and help give treatment to patients in need. This provided the foundation to shape Dr. C into the amazing dentist he is today at Memorial Park Dental Spa.

Dr. C makes sure that he is always on the cutting edge of dental technologies and procedures to make sure his patients get the absolute best care. He focuses his continuing education on implant placement, cosmetic dentistry, occlusion and facial pain. There is nothing more satisfying than making sure the hours of dedication and hard work can truly make a difference in people’s oral health and personal lives.

Outside of dentistry, Dr. C is focused on spending time with his wife and son. When he is not with his wife and son he likes to stay up on the latest technologies in dental and go salt water fishing!

Dr. C.R. Hoopinger, DDS

Dr. Hoopingarner started his career as a Houston dentist in 1973 with one goal in mind: Deliver the highest quality care to patients based on their needs and desires.

This is accomplished by asking, listening, learning, sensing, and satisfying the needs, wants, and values of all of our patients.

 ‘‘My end goal is to get you healthy. I won’t just treat your problem. I’m going to make sure you understand why you have that problem so you can keep from having it again.’’

Dr. Hoopingarner has shared his experiences at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies, and continues to encourage students at the University of Texas School of Dentistry to embrace advancements in dentistry.

The Proof is in Our Patients

The best dentist in Houston. I came for my first cleaning and Beverly was AMAZING!!!! My prior cleanings at another dentist left me in pain, not at Memorial Park Dental. I also was fitted for a lower night guard, and it was the first time a night guard actually worked for me. All of the staff is great, even making a filling a decent experience. Love this place!

Patrick M.

A friend of mine referred me to Dr Thomas a few years ago and I have been a very satisfied patient ever since. The staff are all very friendly, knowledgable, helpful and they make you feel very comfortable during your visit. The office decor is very inviting, modern, clean, organized and surpasses any other dental office I’ve been to in the past.

Angelita R.

Love the office and staff. They will work with your schedule and try to make your appointments convient for you. The staff is very friendly each time we have come. It’s great to have an office know you and be concerned about what’s best for your health, and not just concerned for their business. After years of trying to find a great dentist…won’t be going anywhere else!!!
