Who we are

Hycomb is a marketing and communications company founded in 1980 and continuing to serve the needs of dentists throughout the country.

Our partnership with marketing analysts, copywriters, graphic designers, and production personnel provides a full range of services available with one phone call.

We are large enough to provide marketing at the highest level and small enough to provide a high level of personal service. When you call our office, "everybody knows your name."

 

Melinda Spitek, CEO

"At Hycomb, we’re not only professionals, we’re your friends."
Melinda brings her energy, warmth and personal commitment to the office of CEO and director of day-to-day operations at Hycomb. Prior to joining Hycomb, she managed solo, managed care, as well as large multi-specialty group practices for over 23 years. This valuable experience helps her relate to the challenges of running a dental office. Her years at Hycomb have also given her a solid grounding in all aspects of dental marketing. "I was very fortunate to be working with Connie Hazel, the best mentor I could have ever had." Melinda took over ownership of Hycomb when Connie retired. Those who have worked with Melinda appreciate her willingness to take charge of a problem and work on behalf of her clients until it is solved.

 

Connie Hazel, Founder

Although she retired in December 2000, Hycomb is guided by her business philosophy, her generosity, and her vision. Visionaries are people who see the importance of an idea before anyone else. Over 20 years ago, Connie owned a 22-person ad agency in Bakersfield, where she became aware of the lack of marketing materials for dentists. Realizing that dental practices were small businesses that needed to market their services in order to compete, she founded Hycomb Communications, the first marketing agency for dentists, in 1980. She introduced many firsts in the industry, including the first newsletter for dental practices. The company moved to San Francisco in 1985 and to Healdsburg in 1996 and is still devoted exclusively to dental marketing.

 

 

What we do

We help dental practices make the most of their resources, large and small. We give you the freedom to focus on quality dentistry (what you were trained to do) by helping you market your small business, smoothly and effectively (what we were trained to do).

We have one of the country’s largest libraries of articles on dental topics written for patients. The collection is distinguished for its range of topics, clinical research, and professional writing and is a valuable resource for our clients.

Whether yours is a solo or large group practice, Hycomb has the flexibility to work within your needs and budget to provide the best marketing solutions.

Our promise to you

We listen first, then we help form a solution.
