Northwest Dental

Fantastic experience: Northwest Dental really take any fear away of going to the Dentist. Can’t speak highly enough of the service and professionalism from the entire team. I see Amelia who is outstanding!

Fantastic experience: Friendly and cost effective. GP

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Chris and his associates for many years. Given I am missing several teeth, he has been excellent at protecting my other teeth which are naturally under additional stress. When I need treatment, he is clear at communicating the different option plans and associated costs. Occasionally I have gone to Amelia Yu who is his current associate. She has been very communicative and efficient explaining what she is doing at each stage. When I have had unexpected issues, they have fitted me or my children in as appropriate as befits the pain level ie same day when in son was in a lot of pain, 1 week when no pain but tooth a bit cracked. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Chris Kennedy has been my dentist for many years, with a mouth full of fillings from years gone by. Chris has saved my teeth. I have no fears of going to the dentist, I'm always made to feel relaxed and welcomed. I thoroughly recommend Chris and Northwest Dental. David

Fantastic experience: Amelia very effectively dealt with my broken tooth and her and her DA were pleasant and courteous. Great service. Gavin Walkinshaw

Fantastic experience: Chris always impresses with his thorough professional approach one of the best if not the best dental practitioner I have encountered in Christchurch

Fantastic experience: I've been a long-term patient of Northwest Dental, recent years with dentist Chris Kennedy. Always been great hands, just the right amount of expert care and caring attention. I'm in good hands and no hesitation to recommend Northwest Dental to others. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Many thanks to you, Chris & your assistant for the effort you recently put in to replace my broken tooth. The result is fantastic.

Fantastic experience: Let's face it, no-one enjoys going to the dentist! But I have to say, when I visit Northwest Dental and Chris Kennedy I'm no longer filled with dread at the thought of a pending appointment - I instantly feel at ease on arrival and always leave very happy with a job well done. Chris is very gentle, knows his stuff, and he and his staff are a pleasure to deal with. I totally recommend!

Fantastic experience: NWD is absoluely superb in all aspects. Deidre on frount of house is warm, friendly and professsional as was the chair side assistant whose name I am sorry I cannot recall. Chris has been my dentist for a number of years and is fantastic. Really good work on this sorry rack of dentine that inhabit my mouth and knew exactly when to refer for further specailist treatment. I didn't even feel the dental block going in and the whole thig was painless. Really impressed.

Fantastic experience: Very happy with our new dentist's office. The staff are all wonderful and we highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I have attended regular hygienist appointments with Kirstine for many years and trust her high quality service completely! I am much more relaxed in the chair these days, and even look forward to my appointments, because I get to catch up with her (briefly) and the other friendly staff, and feel great once the job's done!

Fantastic experience: Exam, xray, and extraction all within 30min, expertly done anaesthetic and beside manner. Wonderful people, cheap prices, and truly expert skills. Will be coming back for future checkups, even if I move to the other side of town!

Fantastic experience: Having had two earlier appointments with Amelia past two years, one of which required surgery to a tooth, I knew my recent annual checkup appointment would be a pleasure. I can heartily recommend Amelia's dentistry skills, and her careful attention to every detail - and the supporting staff make the whole experience care-free.

Fantastic experience: Great service - been going here for years and the team always look after me. Full confidence that Dr Kennedy only does what is needed, at top quality.

Fantastic experience: NW Dental are very professional and offer a complete dental health service. I appreciate their interest in my dental health, not just filling fillings, next person please.

Fantastic experience: Always great service from all the team at NW Dental Centre.

Fantastic experience: Quick appointments and great staff very happy with the work done.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend the team at Northwest Dental highly enough. The reception crew was so understanding when I needed urgent dental care and the dental treatment I received from Chris was outstanding. Thanks to his expertise and excellent care my dental problems were resolved and I am so happy with the result. I avoided the hygienist for many years but Kirstine was wonderfully caring and I now have squeaky clean teeth.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service and lovely staff. Was welcomed by the lovely team at the front desk and made to feel very comfortable. Amelia did a great job with my broken tooth and the cost was very reasonable. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Have been going to Northwest Dental for years and they consistently provide a great personable service by all their wonderful staff. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: The staff at Northwest Dental are great. The dental hygienists always do an excellent job and my dentist Amelia is outstanding. She explains everything so well and offers plenty of advice for dental care. I highly recommend Amelia to anyone who needs a kind, caring & professional dentist.

Fantastic experience: I have quite bad anxiety and going to the dentist is a nightmare for me. Ask for Amelia! She was absolutely incredible, made me feel comfortable and safe and all my appointments with her were quick and easy, brilliant dentist. highly recommend Northwest Dental!

Fantastic experience: My recent help from Northwest Dental was very prompt, extremely efficient from all the staff and resulted in minimal pain and stress on my part. One very satisfied patient.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Chris for around 6 years now. He is very professional and communicates well if there is any work that needs to be done. The rest of the staff are very friendly as well. Thanks for being a great dentist!

Fantastic experience: Great friendly service as usual, feel well looked after, I've been coming to this practice for years, consistently good, thanks guys.

Fantastic experience: Great dentist would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Have been going to Chris for many years and would not see anyone else! He is an empathetic caring professional man who gets to know his patients and treats them accordingly as individuals. I never feel rushed and trust him whole heartedly with the decisions he makes and the guidance he gives me. The same goes for Kirstine and the rest of staff. Highly recomment Northwest Dental !!

Fantastic experience: Great dentist practise, I went for an overdue dental check and was seen by Amelia. Really professional and great communication, I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: The family have always been patients of the Northwest Dental. Since making Christchurch NZ our home 39 years ago Mr Kennedy has been the family dentist. The clinic has a friendly staff, very professional & always great service. We recommend Northwest Dental anytime.

Fantastic experience: I avoided dentists for 6 years (once I had to pay for them myself) and tend to get a bit of anxiety having people up in my mouth. I cannot recommend the team enough, everyone has made me feel more than comfortable, and the team have gone above and beyond to let me know about cancelled appointments if I’ve let them know I need to come in sooner than what is available. I don’t avoid the ‘dreaded’ dental check up anymore and was shocked that the price was extremely reasonable. Safe to say I won’t avoid the dentist for another 6 years. Super friendly bunch of bananas!

Fantastic experience: I live on the West Coast but going to Northwest Dental in Christchurch is worth it! The staff are so friendly and accommodating, and the dental work I received from Amelia was fantastic

Fantastic experience: Chris Kennedy - the best dentist in Christchurch, without any doubt.

Fantastic experience: Professional service always from Chris and his team…and they’re are friendly lot too/ I travel past an entire city of dentists I could access easier than Chris but there isn’t one I trust more. He doesn’t do things for the sake of it and touches your mouth lightly. His Hygenist is also the most thorough I have ever had. I’ve been going here for approximately 25 years and I’m not going anywhere else. Chris isn’t allowed to retire.

Fantastic experience: Chris Kennedy is the best Dentist I've ever had. When I moved cities for a number of years, I was unable to find the same high level of expertise, professionalism and friendly customer service. When I moved back to Chch, I galloped back to Northwest Dental and am thrilled to have Chris as my Dentist, once again...and once again ...I received a high level of expertise, up-to-date knowledge and professionalism , with the same warm humour that put me istantly at ease. His integrity and high level of care is greatly appreciated...as was the friendliness and helpfulness of the centre staff. It's not often you hear someone say they are looking forward to going to the dentist...but I do I loved

Fantastic experience: I have needed to visit for two filling replacements and a broken tooth in the last month (pretty unlucky!) however, the service and treatment I have received has been excellent. Amelia is calm and friendly, explains the treatment and always put me at ease. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Amelia is a lovely person who is always kind and empathetic. I never worry about an upcoming visit because she does her best to make me feel as comfortable as possible. She is a fantastic dentist and I know any work she does is of the utmost quality.All the staff at Northwest Dental put me at my ease. I highly recommend the practice.

Fantastic experience: Have been here for a bout 1.5 years after recently moving to Christchurch. Have found them to be well organised and easy to book appointments with, and appointments actually start on time reliably. Other dentists have quoted really high prices and recommended quite invasive/expensive surgery right away for a weird tooth that I have, but I like that the team at Northwest suggested a conservative approach and took the time to see what solution would be best over the long run rather than just making money of my teeth. Have always found the team friendly and technically skilled so there is never any pain!

Fantastic experience: Always get the best of care, guidance on options and results from Chris and his team. Have been a patient for more years than I can remember!

Fantastic experience: Very professional, great service and follow up. Would certainly recommend. They are a first class team.

Fantastic experience: Chris, Kirstine and their team have provided a professional, proactive and preventative approach to my dental care at a reasonable cost. This is exactly what I was looking for in a dental clinic.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and great service from reception and doctor. I was only in Christchurch for two days and needed a consultation on a painful jaw but also needed a clean before flying overseas in two days, no bookings available for the cleaning unfortunately. So I came in for the consultation and then doctor offered to do a quick clean before her next patient. Super super grateful for this as it was very difficult to get a clean while travelling, thank you so much!!

Fantastic experience: After going to Steve Simmons for years who retired a few years ago from this practise I was nervous about how well I would like his replacement Amelia and I am happy to say the transition has been seamless.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional service from Kristine and Chris. Best ever clean from Kristine! Chris made me feel relaxed and did what was required in a consultative and reassuring manner. Thanks guys.

Fantastic experience: I have been consulting Dr Jennifer at NW Dental and she has been excellent . Clear communication , solid with her analysis and the support staff have been outstanding too highly recommend the Team @ NW Dental

Fantastic experience: I’ve just had my teeth done by Kirstine and it was a great experience..TBH I was a bit scared to get a hygienist appointment for a long time but she made it super easy.. Thank you☺️

Fantastic experience: I have always found Chris to be very friendly and competent. My family and friends continue to recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great dentist.

Fantastic experience: Thanks Amelia Yu for your dental treatment. You were an awesome dentist. I will come back to see you again :)

Fantastic experience: These ladies are amazing. Son hurt his mouth in a trampoline accident on Sunday, and they saw us quick smart and then back again today to remove a tooth. So kind and caring and thoughtful. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Chris Kennedy is the best dentist ever!!! I had such bad teeth and he fixed them with like no pain! Best dentist experience ever!

Fantastic experience: chris kennedy is a great dentist.warm friendly and gentle and trustworthy

Fantastic experience: Chris Kennedy is a fantastic dentist who won't rip you off or tell you you need treatments or procedures you don't. After a bad experience with 2 dentists in christchurch I'd definitely say Chris is stand out and will be the only one I go to from now on. Staff are lovely. No tvs on the ceiling that you're forced to watch and can't hear! Just good dentistry. Parking is a bit of an issue so go early.
