Good dentist but I do feel the £40 missed appointment charge is really expensive. I accidentally missed one appointment and suffer with ADHD so tend to be quite a forgetful person. I've got to wait now for a couple of weeks till I can afford that. Maybe a text reminder service would be beneficial to patients with things like ADHD and autism so they don't forget. Thankyou.

brilliant dentist she is amazing. Had root canal work done and there has been no pain, not even a twinge. Everything was explained to me and her assistant amazing, what a team

When I showed up at the clinic recently, in horrendous pain, I feared the worst - the loss of a front tooth at least! But thanks to the skill of Dr David, I am smiling again. NHS dentists are few and far between: those who remain are to be applauded for prioritising patient well-being. Thanks also to the reception team who make the surgery so welcoming.

Always rather nerve wracking meeting a new dentist! Layla immediately put my worries aside so I must say that I'll look forward to my next visit! As always Norma was wonderful... never thought I'd be so relaxed about a dental appointment!
