Patient reviews
From the reviews belowReviewers praise the dentists for being kind, gentle and good at putting nervous patients at ease, and say they take time to answer questions.
The entire staff team took really good care of me. I'll always be grateful. In particular Dr. Ike & Dr. Jak were very kind & accommodating to me. Five stars all round. This is the best dentist in east london.
Absolutely brilliant Dentist been attending for years , l had a fear of dentist so was very apprehensive when l went to my first appointment, l saw Dr Olufolake who is so lovely she put me at ease straight away she was gentle and understanding, l no longer have a fear of attending this dentist due to her professional care I am 72 years old and still have great teeth for which l am so thankful to Dr Olufolake, Receptionist is also lovely friendly and very helpful. I would certainly recommend this dental practice.
Not many of us enjoy going to the dentist but Dr Folake Ajanaku puts you at ease. She is incredibly competent and goes above and beyond to deliver top level care. She takes her time to answer any questions and is always happy to give you extra tips to maintain great oral health. Will always keep going back even if I move away from the area!
Saying I need to book 2 separate appointments for a teeth clean. 1 being a checkup and the other being the clean. My teeth are in great condition and this would just be maintenance. My last checkup was 9 months ago, which is fine according to the NHS. Complete waste of time when they could be done together. And the dentist is rude, I wanted to report that a while ago. I will be transferring.
