We joined Tim Wells and his surgery about a year ago and joined the Denplan. Having now had 2 check ups each and some small dental stuff, my wife and I are thankful we were pointed in their direction by a friend and patient at the surgery. A small one man band practice that reminds us both of the old days when you learned to trust a dentist. Tim Wells instilled that trust together with his friendly staff. A small but efficient reception and they text and E mail reminders as your appointments come up on the calendar. We are both glad that we have once again found a dentist we like and trust …

My wife and I have been patients at the Acorn Dental Surgery for several years. We are both very happy with the treatment we have received. The level of professionalism and personal care and attention have always been of the highest quality. All our treatment and preventive care and advice have been excellent. We would certainly recommend the Acorn to anyone looking to choose a dentist.

Brilliant friendly surgery with great staff. Outside of my normal 6 monthly check ups when I’ve needed emergency care, Tim and his team have been amazing. Quick to respond with pre and post care support. Can’t recommend this wonderful little family friendly surgery enough :-)

I had the misfortune to need an extraction recently. Tim explained everything that would happen at every stage and made sure my mouth was numb and put me at ease during the procedure. He is a very caring professional and always makes sure you understand what’s ahead. About 2 weeks after the extraction I was a bit concerned with some tenderness round the gum. Tim got me in the same morning and put my mind at rest. There was no further charge as it was part of any follow up treatment. I highly recommend Tim and his team to look after my dental requirements.
