Dentists Gloucestershire

My assessment appointment with Dr Ho Fat revealed that I needed cracked and worn fillings to be removed from 8 of my teeth and replaced with new fillings. A recently fitted crown also needed to be removed and replaced as decay and old filling material had not been removed from underneath the crown by my old dentist before he had fitted it. I was initially very shocked and upset to hear that I needed such extensive treatment as I had attended vert regular check ups with my previous dentist and his hygienist. Dr Ho Fat explained very well exactly what treatment was needed and why - the use of photographs he had taken of my teeth during the assessment helped me to see and understand exactly what was going on. The dental nurse then made me a cup of coffee and sat with me to explain how the treatment would be staged together with the costs involved. Everyone I encountered at the practice that day was incredibly kind, understanding, and supportive and despite receiving such bad news, I felt that I was in very safe and professional hands. As I had lost confidence in my previous dentist, I was looking for a new dentist in my area. My first appointment with Dr Ho Fat revealed that I needed considerable treatment (something which no-one relishes) but I am now half way through the necessary treatment and I could not fault the care that I have received. The reception staff and the dental nurses have all been exceptionally kind, supportive and efficient and the treatment I have received from Dr Ho Fat has been professional and efficient to a level I have never encountered before. I am very confident in their care and could not recommend the Practice more highly. Furthermore, I have also recommended this practice to a friend and my mother, both of whom are also delighted with the care they are receiving.

As a busy working Mum, I don’t usually write reviews but this one is well deserved! My family and I have been patients at Confident Dental and Implant Clinic for several years now and would not go anywhere else. We usually see Dr Ala Rozwadowska, Julia Hall and any hygienist available. Ala and Julia are kind, gentle, honest, skilled and professional – qualities that rarely coexist in the dental profession! I can genuinely say that they put your well-being above profit and don’t suggest treatment unless absolutely necessary. All staff have good working relationships and you get the impression that they really enjoy working together. I was recently in quite a lot of pain following some treatment, phoned in and was quickly offered an emergency appointment. When I came in for my appointment, Ala and Julia’s friendly rapport instantly put me at ease and I relaxed as they carried out treatment to calm a sensitized tooth. What struck me was that over the following week, 3 different members of staff checked to see how I was doing! They really went over and above the call of duty to make sure I was OK! A trip to the dentist is considered a treat by my children and I often struggle to get them to leave the practice after their appointments. Ala is very good at reaching out to children with very different personalities; my eldest being a very switched on but more nervous patient and my youngest being a playful child who doesn’t usually sit still for 2 minutes and demands that her toy lion receives the same treatment she does (which they happily accommodate). Both of my children sit happily for Ala and Julia and let them carry out examinations and treatment like fissure sealants etc. We are very grateful to have found Confident Dental Care and happy to give credit where credit is due.
