People’s experience
Prior to our inspection, we asked the practice to encourage patients to share their views of the service with us. We received feedback from 17 patients. On the day of our inspection, we saw patient feedback from over 100 patients, who had left online reviews. Patient feedback provided a positive view of the dental team and care provided by the practice. Comments included: “The care I received was of a very high standard, and the treatment plan felt completely bespoke to my needs. Everything was explained clearly, and I always felt that the focus was on achieving the best outcome for me rather than anything else. It was also great value for money considering the level of care and results. [the dentist] provided outstanding personal service throughout. You can genuinely tell how much he cares about his patients. The advice always felt honest and tailored to my situation, with no pressure, just what was best for me.” “I have been a patient here for over 10 years and during that time I have had a range of dental treatments both cosmetic and otherwise. At every appointment over this time I have felt comfortable, at ease and totally confident in his skill and expertise. [the dentist] and the team definitely 'go the extra mile' to create a caring, friendly atmosphere to put the most nervous of us completely at ease.” “The lady on reception, was very warm and always greeted me with a smile, when entering the treatment room, [the dentist] was always polite, always talked through what they were doing and why.” Patients commented positively about the standards of cleanliness. “Easy to book. Lovely calm atmosphere. Clean practice.” Patients felt able to book appointments within an acceptable timescale for their needs and said they had enough time during their appointment without feeling rushed. Patients told us they were given clear information to help them make an informed choice about their treatment and any associated costs. They were involved in decisions about their care. Patients said when they were prescribed medicines, sufficient information was given. Patients told us that they were supported to maintain their oral health and were provided with appropriate information and resources. The practice shared patient feedback with the team. We were told this was reviewed and where suggestions had been made, appropriate action would be taken.

Evidence, not a league table.
CQC findings and GP Patient Survey results answer different questions and may cover different time periods. Neither confirms current appointment availability, NHS acceptance, opening hours or whether a provider is suitable for you.
Check the provider’s own website and the complete official CQC record before making a decision. If you need urgent medical help, use NHS 111 or call 999 in an emergency.
