Meet the Landmark Dental Centre team

Dr. Trevor C. Neal

Dr. Trevor Neal was born and raised on Vancouver Island. If you have been a patient of Dr. Don long enough, you may have seen him running around the office as a youngster! After high school, Trevor decided to head East for University at McGill, followed by dental school at Boston University, where he graduated top of his class in 2011. After Boston, Trevor heard the calling of the mountains and moved to Denver Colorado, where he honed his dental skills for the next three and a half years. When he felt ready, Trevor returned to Vancouver Island to join the family business at Landmark Dental.

Trevor prides himself on providing exceptional care that is tailored to the individual and takes their entire health into consideration. He has written articles in the Peninsula Press that highlight the importance of healthy eating for your teeth as well as the rest of your body. Trevor attends workshops and study clubs in new fields every year to maintain the highest quality of care for his patients. From esthetics to root canals, nutrition to implants, Trevor is here to provide the best for you. Dr. Trevor is accepting patients of all ages and backgrounds. He is excited to help keep you happy and healthy.

Dr. Raquel Hudson

Dr Raquel Hudson was born and raised in Kelowna, BC where she attended UBC Okanagan for her undergraduate studies. After 3 years of a medical biochemistry degree, she got accepted into UBC Dental School in Vancouver. At UBC Dentistry she learned all aspects of general dentistry and has since developed a growing passion for crown/bridge work, pediatrics, and orthodontics. Raquel loves the meticulous aspect of dental work, paying close attention to detail to provide the best possible care that she can to her patients. With all of that being said, if you ask Raquel what her favorite part about her job is, she’ll tell you it’s being able to meet new people every day, build relationships with patients, and educate patients in all of the preventative measures that can be taken to keep their smiles healthy.

Raquel has wanted to be in the dental field since high school. She decided on this career path after undergoing over 3 years of orthodontic treatment in her teens. After her braces came off, Raquel felt so much gratitude toward her Orthodontist for giving her the confidence that came along with her new smile. In that moment she knew that she wanted to work on people’s smiles and help them feel that confidence and happiness too.

Being born and raised in the beautiful Okanagan valley, Raquel always has had a love for the outdoors. After spending 4 years on the west coast that passion grew even further, leading her to move to Calgary following graduation to explore the Rocky Mountains. After 3 cold winters in Alberta, she decided it was time to make the move back to BC and set up some roots on Vancouver Island with her partner Bradley and tabby cat Walter. When she’s not behind the mask, you can find Dr Hudson hiking, backpacking, camping, rock climbing, and exploring all that Vancouver Island has to offer!

Dr. Donald J. Neal

Over 40 years have gone by since I started working as a dentist in Sidney and it’s now time to say farewell. It has been the great honour of my life to serve this community and I will admit to very mixed feelings about retirement.

To my patients in Sidney and Victoria, you have always treated me well and I thank everyone for trusting me with your dental care. It has always been very gratifying to welcome a new patient who came our way because of your referral.

I have always loved coming in to work, interacting with patients and hearing their stories. I remember walking into a conversation an elderly man was having with my hygienist about parachuting behind enemy lines in WW2!

Over the past several years we have started to welcome the GRANDCHILDREN of my original patients. I am confident Trevor will be able to maintain the family atmosphere of Landmark Dental Centre for generations to come.

For me, I will be enjoying prawn fishing, some woodworking projects, travelling and maybe, maybe, maybe taking up golf again. I’m putting aside my dreams of ever becoming a rock star or professional wrestler.

Please say “hi” when you see me in the grocery store or out in the community. Thank you for these wonderful years.

Dr. Donald J. Neal
