I've never had such professional people looking after my smile beforeSadie, UK, 30 08 22

Well here I am, 11 months into my treatment consisting of almost a full mouth of dental implants. I did months of research before I chose this practice, I knew it was a huge undertaking and commitment and I was extremely nervous. I've had easy appointments and I've had more difficult appointments but throughout my treatment I never felt any discomfort or pain. And most importantly I trusted my Doctors. The chairs that I have my treatment in are out of this world! So comfy I've even nodded off during treatment and had to be poked awake! I'm not saying it's fun but it's as good as it can get at this surgery. I will be grateful forever for the wonderful care and expertise I receive here. I'm almost finished treatment, as I write this today, my implants are about to have the first fitting tomorrow and I'm so excited. I've carefully chosen from the options available, with expert advice and after a whole year I will finally have a perfect smile again. I'm 66 now and a smoker so if I can do it, so can you! It's the best decision of my life. I'd like to say a special thank you to Doctor Aziz, who has looked after me so well, he can make you laugh through the whole process, which is a gift in itself. The prices were completely fair when the standard of treatment is considered. I've never had such professional people looking after my smile before! Thank you to everyone at Cathedral Road Dentist for an unforgettable experience! I wish I could give you 10 stars and a trophy!

I cannot find fault in any way whatsoever. The staff are so very pleasant and kind. Every treatment is fully explained, always try to fit me in in an emergency. Have been with them from the start, still very happy with my treatment, with young, enthusiastic staff. I have regular check-ups, two extractions, and lots of advice.

My wife had an x-ray for dental implant purposes, the surgery was very helpful. It would be nice if they would offer me and and wife a twice-yearly checkup once our dentures are fitted.

From start to finish I was very well looked afterSarah, UK, 07 10 22

After many years of trouble with all my upper teeth, I decided to have them all removed and have mini dental implants fitted. From start to finish I was very well looked after. I was told exactly what would happen and nothing was too much trouble when any minor adjustments were needed with the final implant. I am left extremely happy with the final outcome and would not hesitate in recommending.
