Lynda Smith ★★★★★

Receptionists always polite and efficient. Saw Rachel. As always a good examination and the whole procedure explained as it went on. Following examination it was clearly explained to us what further work was required and the price. We're able to make an appointment for the further work before we left the surgery. Have to say it was much sooner than I thought it would be. All round a great service

Mary Coakley ★★★★★

Our appointment went well. Receptionist was lovely, always friendly & efficient. Made us our next appointment before we left. Our dentist (Ban) was very thorough with her examinations & also friendly & efficient. Ban took very good care of my grandson & explained oral hygiene to him, demonstrated how to use floss & answered his questions. Great experience.

Sophie Jones ★★★★★

I’m a patient of the previous dentist and moved over to practice when it was sold. Dr Bahn is kind, considerate works hard to make each visit relaxing and comfortable. I love chatting with her and she’s looking after me to a high standard. As a nervous patient, having trust is important. I have it with Dr Bahn and the staff from reception to dental assistants. Thank you for keeping my smile x

Jack Brenchley ★★★★★

Great experience 5 stars, I struggle with dental work but today I was showed amazing patience and skill giving me time to calm myself down and not forcing me through the experience. Every person from reception to dentist made me feel comfortable and welcome and I really appreciate it as I called last minute. truly professional experience.
