All the staff here are brilliant - maintain the highest professional standardsMichael, UK, 16 11 22

Excellent dental care from the whole team, but most notably Victoria and most recently Dan, who throughout my double implant journey did his utmost to address all my fears, and I had quite a few! He has done an amazing job. Terrific dental surgeon. We moved to this practice after a poor customer care experience elsewhere, and both my wife and myself have no hesitation in recommending Heather Williams’ Practice. All the staff here are brilliant - maintain the highest professional standards, and continually make us feel individually valued as patients. Superb practice. Thank you for looking after my wife and myself with such care.

He discussed and explained my required treatmentJohn, UK, 31 08 20

I have a terrible fear of dentists and was suffering from toothache when I visited the Bexley Dental Practise. I was treated by Aatif who was great and put me at ease, he discussed and explained my required treatment. I did need the tooth removed and Aatif made sure I would be in no paid before he proceeded. I would like to thank Aatif for not only being a good dentist but also for his empathy and understanding.
