From being extorted by one dentist and butchered by another, it’s a real sigh of relief to find a dentist not about the money, really welcoming experience and I’m actually excited to go back to get the work done. Extremely reasonable pricing and can really tell they value their patients health. For reference I needed 6 fillings at Bupa coming to over 2200 pound that crazy pricing was unaffordable and I left it which obviously got worse. Now three years later I’m getting twice the amount of work for half the price in a much better practice. Really happy i came across your practice. Hope my review can help others find the right dentist too. Thank you
The loveliest staff ever on reception and Dr Ian Jones as so friendly and really puts you at ease. Took advantage of the introduction offer which was a great deal. Super transparent about costs as well. What more could you want from a dentist? Overall, friendly and helpful - would recommend to everyone I know!
What a wonderful dental practice. Always a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. I am so happy with the treatment I have received.
Can’t recommend this place enough! All the staff are very friendly and welcoming. I have had multiple different treatments with Dr. Valerie who is incredible. You will not regret coming here.
Dan has been easy to approach and I like his no nonsense attitude. Everything explained clearly. Really happy with the results. 100% recommend!
Brilliant experience with Dan, over four appointments Dan completed 16 porcelain veneers, giving me a new perfect smile. Dan is a great dentist, thank you.
