After having an emergency appointment 2 weeks ago and only on a Thursday as this is the day they are operating for NHS patients.

Seen as an emergency patient today. Staff lovely and friendly. Clare and her dental nurse made me feel very much at ease. Wish they were taking on nhs patients but so impressed with their care I’m looking to join as a private patient. Thank you for seeing me and helping me out

John and his team are lovely, they care for you and respect your limitations without any hesitation. My husband would never go to a dentist until I took him to mine and they were brilliant, he now goes without hesitation. I have had this dental practice since the late 80's and I have never had any problems with them. I would highly recommend this dentist, I just wish they would take on new clients as my in-laws are interested in joining.
