The receptionists I spoke to on the phone we're very helpful and the dentist got me sorted with anti biotics during my appointment that day and then got me booked in to go back for a proper clean and check up a few weeks later.
I am very happy with the service I have received so far, my husband has also now booked in. The inside is clean, tidy and has a nice look.
