I went to Harpenden Smiles recently for the first time, having switched dentists due to my work situation. I had a check up and then a crown treatment from Dr Hazelton. The whole set up is excellent.

The nature of the treatments was clearly explained, both at the start and throughout the process, so I was very clear about what was happening at every stage. Dr Hazelton was patient, considerate and careful. I will certainly be returning to Harpende…

I have spent decades afraid and anxious about any dental appointment, let alone treatment. Sachin has changed all that, calmed me and given me peace. I can’t explain why but along with all the staff my experiences have been positive and exceptional. Highly recommend the Hertfordshire Centre for Dentistry. And especially Sachin, my fantastic dentist.

I’ve had an implant done and can not commend this practice enough. Tarryn, the coordinator, is great and she talked me throttle whole process. Overall, each stage of the implant was smooth and efficient. Dr Murphy was an excellent implant dentist and made a potentially tough experience easy. I highly recommend!!
