Very satisfied with the service and treatment. Staff, dentists and assistants all very caring and considerate. Thank you.
Tooth extraction was very well explained and I had no pain.
I felt extremely comfortable with the dental staff. The communication and manner in which I was treated was fantastic.
Dental students have been attending to my teeth over the past two years. They have at all times been most courteous, professional and have shown a high degree of care towards me and explained all procedures.
