I recently attended Forest Hill Dental Surgery (Dentistry For You) for a general check‑up, and I would like to express my appreciation for the quality of care I received. The dentist was exceptionally courteous and thoughtfully attentive in offering clear, well‑reasoned advice. I found his manner genuinely reassuring — professionally warm would be the most accurate expression. Although I can not comment on treatment outcomes yet (I have an upcoming extraction at another practice, as no appointments were available during the Christmas period), I was very grateful for the guidance provided. …

I've had more cancelled appointments from this surgery than I've had hot dinners. It's every single time I book an appointment, and I've had enough. The last one, which was booked 3 months in advance (in December) was for a February appointment this Friday. Got a call to say it's been cancelled and the next available is in April. Stop taking on so many new customers if you can't look after your existing ones. You seem to be so fully booked a normal appointment is a 4 week wait. Most people can't wait that long anyway. All the good dentists have left here anyway, So I'll be joining them and …

Another great Service from Dentistry For You (Forest Hill) I was seen today by Alkistis who is absolutely fantastic, VERY professional, VERY informative and she gives her treatment with great empathy, making you feel at ease. I have been using DFY Forest Hill for a couple of years now and I cannot fault them in any way. Pleasant reception staff who give you a nice greeting on arrival and then the professionalism of the Dentist make it such a welcoming experience. And just for the record as it seems relevant to some I am an NHS patient but the service I've received you'd think that you was …

The staff was very welcoming and Dr, Qureshi was kind, gentle and because she had a cancellation of the next appointment she asked if I wouldn’t mind working on my teeth straight away. She showed compassion, dedication and real kindness. I truly appreciate it. Moreover, I feel at ease, my teeth feel much better and they look more healthy. I am impressed and I can’t thank this dentistry enough for making me feel at ease, welcomed and work so well on my teeth.
