I would highly recommend this practice, whilst being very efficient, they are very caring when dealing with nervous patients. Very friendly staff. We are pleased to say we remain open for both urgent and routine dental care in accordance with government instruction.

By virtue of our location and quality of treatment we provide, we are probably the busiest and largest practice in the south London area.

Going to the dentist is a daunting experience but I feel very welcome and comfortable when I come here. I have attended the practice for many years and always been very happy with the service that I have received. I was very nervous at my first visit to the practice, but Heena put me at ease, and was very supportive.

Standard of care is negligently low especially to NHS patients. I had two big holes in my back teeth on both sides. It's so big that i could put my finger in them, then only for the dentist to tell me that she cannot see any holes. Furthermore one of my tooth was evidently wobbly and even that she claimed that she couldn't see. When i asked for advice of how to address gaps in teeth, she suggested bonding then gave the price while saying that it will make my teeth look very big.
I'll be making an official complaint So I ended up visiting another dentist a few weeks later who had to do an emergency referral to have both my wisdom tooth extracted (these were the one that had the massive holes) as I was informed that it would threaten the health of my other teeth. The referral dentist asked why I left it so long - so this is what happens when dentist discriminate against NHS patients over private patients

Waste of my time, dentist rude and knicker twitchy over patients, abusive, claims she can't do a task because it's NOT WORT IT and refuses me dental treatment Gives me a bad gut feeling in the waiting room. Others, young people, don't like it in there Something wrong. Bloody dentists terror networks

While the treatment is excellent and dentists are really skilled but the reception staff (some) are really unprofessional, we had an appointment, despite reaching on time, the reception staff sent us back stating we were late, while we returned searched for proof of exact appointment time, after showing the proof of appointment they acknowledged that it was a system error. Next time when you request for an appointment make sure you have proof of the same.

Had a chipped tooth done there a while ago only for it to break again soon afterwards. Procedure redone and again broken, then when I returned they started explaining why it will always break and advised me to leave it as it is - not sure why they didn't give this advice in the first place. During the first procedure the junior dentist even forgot to numb my gums and started fixing my teeth which caused me a huge amount of pain before realising and doing it.
She did apologise for the mistake. I did ask to see someone else when it came off the first time and was told it would be a very long wait and ended up seeing the same person. Eventually I tried to have it redone, it got move twice due to Covid and we agreed I should call when there are less restrictions to rebook, but to my surprised when I did they said they can't book me because the two previous ones were marked as no show - simply incredible. I have seen similar comments from others so maybe they are using Covid as excuse to take more private patients.

All my family goes there. Always nice doctors! Called in an emergency for baby and one of the doctors looked after us after 30min! Didn't expect that quickly because this surgery is very busy. Sometimes for check up need to wait a bit longer but it's worth because job is done well, nothing is falling out after half year like from other place experience, crown was made for me 6years ago still everything is fine. Kids are always happy to go there - I guess not all kids gets excited for dentist appointment. My older one never wanted to go for our old surgery but now he asks me all the time when is chek up date. I really like this place.
