Our Smiling Patients' Reviews

Sandra English
As a recent new patient to the practice, I’ve been delighted with my treatment thus far, and have been greeted with warmth and professionalism. Both Josie & Zoe have offered extremely friendly and impartial advice on how best to move forward with my aging teeth. The whole of the practice offers a very caring ethos that gives the patient confidence in their dental choice. Thank you to all.
Den Clarke
I've recently located to area & hadn't attended a dentist for a few years. My initial appointment with Josie was the most relaxed I've ever been (nervous patient!). A 2nd appt for a necessary tooth extraction was completed with so much patience & care that I wasn't even aware the tooth was out! All staff are friendly & welcoming & I look forward (that's never been in my vocabulary) to attending further appointments with Josie to dispel this awful nervousness. Thank you.
John Conley
Excellent care. Very efficient, fast and painless. Prices are very affordable and all the steps were well described as we went along for my care. I'm impressed with all the office staff and the care I received.
John Clarke
First visit to the practice but my first impression is that they are very welcoming at reception, my dentist was also friendly and explained what she was doing and why throughout my examination.
Ed Goodwin
As a nervous patient, I must complement hygienist Zoe. She is excellent! Empathetic, highly skilled and very clear in describing what she is doing and future actions required. Thank you!
Jonathan Howard
Had another very good visit and happy to see the effort in our joint plans are giving great results for my health.
Karen Fleming
This practice is highly recommend. If you are a nervous patient or it's your first time this is definitely the practice to go to. You are made to feel at ease, friendly and welcoming and take good care of you as well as explain everything to you. It was my 1st time and I will definitely be going back.
Jan Raath
Dr Stevenson is the ultimate professional. I had a tooth extraction which was totally painless. He explained the whole procedure and then explained the aftercare carefully. The best dental experience I’ve ever had.
Linda Jones
After experiencing severe pain over the weekend, I was able to obtain an emergency appointment first thing Monday morning despite not being registered with this dentist. Very professional, lovely staff and put me at ease immediately. The dentist clearly explained my options and I decided on a extraction which was carried out immediately. I can now continue with my holiday and can't thank them enough.
Nick Roper
I’ve just had a root canal treatment which I really hadn’t been looking forward to. However, Lyndall and Jasmine carried out the procedure in such a professional and caring way that I almost went to sleep! My thanks to both 🙏
