My husband and I have been seeing Dr Shah for many years now. We both find Dr Shah very understanding and always finds time to explain choices when treatment is needed. Today I had to have bridge dental work and Dr Shah and his lovely dental nurse Mira were very understanding and made me feel at ease being a very nervous patient. Everything was explained to me from start to finish which is very reassuring. I am pleased with the result so thank you both.

Been coming here for a while now and very pleased with the service I always receive. Everyone’s very friendly and I always see the same dentist, Dr Fahd Zaheer. He’s so patient, I take my young kids to see him too and he’s fantastic with them. Really friendly and knowledgable. Always happy to talk everything through with you and explain anything you’re not sure about. Absolutely recommend to all!

I really value Dr Fahd Zaheer. Dr Fahd explains everything in layman’s terms. He is professional kind and patient. Makes you feel at ease and a credit to Thorndike and his profession. Highly recommended. Also appreciation to nurse Mira for her great customer service and warm welcome.
