My first visit to this dentist, like the previous Yelper I too have a fear of dentists (don't we…read moreall?) - but today was a very relaxed and pleasant visit. I was prompted to go because of some pain that told me something really bad could be coming. The office itself is rather like a sprawling modern house. I think that there are as many as 8 dentists practicing there (see pic), but I only met one, Jag, who was amazing. As it turns out I had actual 'procedure' today - just exploration and X-rays. Trust me I have many probing dentists elsewhere (in the US mainly) and pain always follows but Jag was SUPER cautious and all was without any screeches from me. We determined that everything was structurally sound and the pain was either sinus related or a nerve playing up under an existing crown. For today we left it at that, take an anti-biotic for a week and then re-examine - most likely to the endodontist for me to drill through the crown and do a root canal (hopefully painless!) and save the cost and hassle of having new crown made. 5 stars so far!! I (almost ;-) ) look forward to going back next week! Review #51 2018

I was constantly worried of more teeth falling out and me being literally a toothless smile. I went to see Raj Mistry who immediately made meek feel calm - he talked me through everything and gave me confidence to trust him. I had all the teeth removed and a new top and bottom denture made and put in immediately after my teeth were removed. I had IV sedation I felt nothing and remember nothing though I was awake during the whole procedure. My new denture is superb - it looks real and not false - I have my smile and I could not be happier - I wish I had met Raj sooner. I know there must be lots of people like me worrying about needing dentistry - I wish I had met Raj sooner because I perhaps would have kept my own teeth longer - however my new denture is perhaps visually as good as it gets - thank you Dencare 1 smile you are amazing xxx

Once you go to the reception to check in, you get the smilling, pleasant staff greet you and deal with you accordingly. The waiting room well sized although if you go in there, be warned of the arkward silence that must be maintained at all times. There are the old, old magazines there to help you through that. Mr & Mrs Norris, both the dentists work here are incredibly nice and are great dentists to make everything as painless as possible. I would recomend it too all, although like all dentists when you go up for a check up, you get a 5 mins check and everything is fine like always.

He is ideal for patients who are nervous or anxious. It is never true to say that going to the dentist is pain free, but he makes sure you knwo when something bad is going to happen, so you can prepare yourself. He is very gentle with the injections (I have had dentists who leave you sore for a week afterwards) and he is very professional and explains all your options. Although they only accept kids as NHS patients, they have a scheme where you can pay monthly or you can be a private patient for quite reasonable fees.

Another nervous moment... going to the dentist! Mr. Snarky was really in need of a dentist and I…read morewas convinced I had the start of a cavity. After looking online I stumbled across Cavendish Dental Care. They address nervous patients and have their prices online, so it is quite transparent. When I rang up, they were able to register me over the phone, although they do take a £40 fee to ensure that you do turn up to your consultation. She did inform me that they weren't taking NHS patients as of a couple weeks ago, but that was fine with us. We don't seem to be in any catchment area, but we need a dentist, so we registered anyway. There is a small amount of parking out front of the office, but I think the closest car park is the Rose Hill Car Park, unless you can find some parking on one of the streets nearby. They do close at lunch time so if you are trying to make an appointment or turn up a bit early for your appointment just after lunch, you'll have to wait until everyone returns. The waiting area is quite large with dental equipment for purchase behind the desk. There is a t.v. with images and ads playing... in fact some of the diagrams of various dental problems were quite interesting as I've not seen anything like that before. When I went back to meet the dentist, I was pleasantly surprised at how modern and welcoming the room was. When they recline the chair, you'll notice a t.v. above the chair that you can focus on. Although rather than a t.v. show, it just had BBC Radio 2 on. The dentist is very soft spoken and very gentle. While I didn't feel pressured at all, I can already tell that they are suggesting services and as we have registered as private patients... it will probably cost a pretty penny. For example, I still have a baby tooth, but there is no adult tooth to replace it. As a result, my previous dentists have advised me to take care of it and said with care it will probably last for a long time. At this appointment they were already talking about implants for it, but apparently it still looks healthy and there is no movement... However, as long as there is no pressure into services that aren't needed immediately, then we will get on just fine.

I have been made inactive on an assumption that I am never in Loughborough, I am only away two weeks each semester and six weeks in the summer. Ten weeks in total. I am disabled and need regular medication and injections to function and live a relatively normal life compared to able bodied people. No alternative GP services have been provided to me, which is recommended by NHS England. I have only three days worth of medication left and was told to ring 111 to get this or go to A&E. I wonder what the local hospital thinks of this? The admin staff do not know their facts about patient rights within the NHS and they equally do not care about their patients after several interactions with them over the last few months. They were cold and unhelpful today and do not understand that just nipping down to the practice is not an option when you are disabled. There is no patient care or compassion. This practice does not care about their patients, they stereotype, the admin staff are poorly trained, the practice manager never returns calls. The senior partners (GP) implements the care that is given to patients with no thought of the correct procedures in doing this, with any thought towards the patient or as a human being with feelings. This is an appalling practice who care more about making money as partners than their patients. Like Comment Share
