Fantastic experience: Very happy with a titanium implant. The process was led by our dentist and just finished with the new tooth screwed in place. This is not a process you look forward to but in fact was pretty painless except for the cost [of course :)]. Stuart was great.

Fantastic experience: Still traumatised from years of dental hell as a teenager, I shudder at the thought of attending an appointment even for a dental check- up. I attended one such appointment on Monday this week and got the shocking news I need a filling! Asked if I wanted it done immediately or make another appointment, I opted for there and then knowing I probably would never go back. Happily, I can say Mel and her assistant treated me with kid gloves, I survived the experience, and it wasn't at all traumatising. They explained everything - because I like to know what's going on - and checked with me constantly and reassuringly. I hope I don't have to repeat the exercise but certainly won't delay if I need to. Relieved.

Negative experience: The doctors at the clinic were very kind and polite but the receptionist ruined my experience. She was very rude and impolite, very bad customer service received from her.

C P 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have only had positive experiences with this dental clinic, which I have attended since my late teenage years. Everyone is nothing but friendly, helpful, and open, particularly Leanne and Dr Kent. On the few occasions I have had dental work done, they were supportive and reassuring. Very good pricing, and have never gone above a verbal quote. Thank you so much for all you do, I really appreciate it.

Amelie 5 years ago

Negative experience: Doctors brilliant, receptionist very terrible and rude person. I don’t recommend this place only because of her, she was really bad to us -zero customers service skills, she forced us to go out into the street, supposedly there were too many people, although she accepted people who came after us and there were no signs of how many people should be inside, and in general she did not take people in turn. more than a month has passed and I still cannot forget this incident, she made us feel like flawed people.

We are very sorry you felt unwelcome here. It is our intention to treat everyone with dignity and respect at all times. These are difficult times with COVID-19 and the directive from the dental council during level two and three, was to have only the patient who had a scheduled appointment sit in the waiting room or return to their car until immediately before the Dentist was ready to see the patient. No more than five people in the waiting room with a one metre distance between seating at all times. Unfortunately you seem to have been caught up in this unpleasant but necessary process. Please feel free to call us and we will be happy to try to resolve this issue.

Bronwyn Squires 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been going to this dentist for a long time. He has given me good dental advice over the years saving me a lot of money and unnecessary work.

Richard Reynolds 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going here for 4 years and they do great work and have a great dental hygienist for cleanings too. Had a root canal done a few months ago to fix a broken tooth and then the was crown put on today. Super service, Stuart is an excellent dental surgeon and my root canal was quite painless - great injections and pain management by the team which helped as I was very nervous. Crown was done very well, fit perfectly first time with no trimming required - very happy. Would definitely recommend this team!

Malin Hunter 8 years ago

Negative experience: Got cut off mid sentence when I tried to book an appointment for my son. Sitting in the waiting room on previous occasions I have also been unimpressed with the lack of empathy by the receptionist. Consequently I am now changing dental surgery to the one that that did see my son as they were nothing but polite and made both my son and I feel relaxed and informed from the moment I made the call to when we walked out the door.
