Now living outside the west end and all the places I used to frequent, I figured it was about time…read moreto move to a new doctor closer to mi casa. Well, I guess I wouldn't say it's close, but it's closer than going to the west end. My guy recommended this dentist, as this is the one he goes to, so I figured, why not make this our family dentist. Huzzah. This dentist must be pretty busy because I called in for an appointment and they were able to schedule me in a month later. No biggie, I had no pressing issues to speak of. When I arrived, it was a blustery typically rainy Glasgow day so I was quite happy that it was so warm and toasty inside the Dentists doors. The waiting room is full of antique furniture, I almost felt as though I had stepped back in time. Very cozy indeed, I was able to relax a bit while I waited to be seen. When I was taken back for my check up, I was greeted by friendly staff and we got down to business. I spoke of a few small issues I was having and without even blinking, we were off and running, chatting about the ins and outs of teeth, and how mine are pretty great. (Years of braces and the want to keep them as clean as possible probably helps). I quite enjoyed that the dentist was chatty, as it helped ease any anxiety I have about being in the dentist chair. I'm back in a few weeks for a cleaning and it's funny to think that I'm actually looking forward it it.

Can you go as far as to say you love the Dentist?…read more If it were possible I would say I loved this one. Although no one wants to go to the dentist McCarte and Swan's is just about the least intimidating, most friendly surgeons you could hope to find in the centre of Glasgow. They're based on Douglas St in a surgery that used to be a house. With comfy chairs, Smooth Radio in the background and a cozy, living room ambience, it's hard to feel nervous. You may have to wait a couple of weeks to be seen so if you can afford to, book in advance. They do, however, offer emergency appointments, are open late on certain week days and will strive to see you as quickly as possible should you require assistance. And you know, even when you do get to the part where you're sitting in the chair, the dentists and nurses are so good you're out before you can blink. I've been in for some pretty painful infections in the past and had to get a number of jags in one day but the crazy thing is I don't remember it being as sore or unpleasant as it could've been. My dentist is Dr McCarte and he always offers friendly advice and chats away. So even in the most severe cases he goes out of his way to make your life a lot easier - he seems completely at ease which also helps. The general upkeep of your teeth is up to you but a check up and tooth cleaning in here is just over ten pounds and it seems to ward off any further infections. Dr McCarte always keeps up with you and even though he is a very busy man he always remembers you, making it feel more like a family surgery as opposed to merely a service. If you ever do have dental problems, his empathetic but pragmatic approach is always a huge help. So after my earlier years being fearful of the dentists, I can honestly say that Dr McCarte and his professional staff has eradicated my concerns, making my dental health a lot more manageable with minimal stress. The attitude, work and interest from all staff mark this surgery a cut above others, and each individual is an asset to the health profession.

I'm sorta doing this review on behalf of my boyfriend and fellow Yelp partner in crime. Yeah,…read morethat's right, Mr B - I'm stealing the first review, bitch! The Berkeley Clinic specialises in cosmetic dentistry and cosmetic treatments such as Botox. For teeth, they seem very clued up and professional. Their dentists are very prestigious and have won awards, including Young Dentist of the Year. The Clinic couldn't really be described as a surgery - it's clean, more like a salon. It's very progressive, and the Clinic has brought new teeth repairing techniques to Glasgow, such as 6 week orthodontics and safe ways of removing mercury amalgam fillings. They do this in a very secure setting, and make sure that the patient doesn't inadvertantly breathe in the fumes of their old mercuy filling. In the long term, it keeps your mouth clean and safe. They seem very quick and apt at getting to the source of your oral problems, seeing that the patient is kept in the know at all times on what treatment is best for them. It's very personal, and their non evasive way of scanning teeth and projecting the results to the patient quickens lengthy, archaic procedures of taking moulds. They also have panic buttons on the side of their chairs so if you are geting a filling or feel uncomfortable in any way, you can stop treatment immediately by turning off the equipment. This gives the patient a feeling of control, which is the idea behind why they put such techniques in place. They run an anxiety workshop to help alleviate your fears even further. Crowns, veneers and bridges are costly, but the lasting effects seem aboslutely excellent. The dentists work alongside the guys who do shows such as Extreme Makeover, so as far as cosmetic dentistry goes they are great at bringing the magic. Overall, the Berkeley Clinic's consultations and procedures take you out of the chair and into modern dentistry. My boyfriend received a goodie bag that looked like he'd been away a spa weekend, and his dentist is giving him a diet program to help keep future tooth decay at bay. They are equally as good at helping the patient realise why their teeth are a certain way, and giving them control over fixing the problem. I have a really bad snaggle tooth and know what it's like to have a smile that I'm a wee bit embarrassed of. I would give an arm and aleg to get my teeth fixed in here, because as the Clinic outline they know that adults can feel socially insecure if they aren't proud of their teeth. The professionals here encourage good habits and offer great techniques which can give you a Hollywood smile years before braces can. When I have more money, I'll stop by the Clinic and swap my fang for some sparkly gnashers, and it'll be a good day!

They are an NHS dentist predominantly and their standard is very high and (more importantly to me) they don't rip you off with treatments you don't really need. I always get a (very thorough) check-up by my lovely, caring dentist Margaret and usually a scale and polish (because I loooooove the way my teeth feel afterwards!) which feels amazing and the Hygienist is always cheerful and super lovely. Great reception staff too and it is never a problem if you ever need to change an appointment. Good selection of magazines too in the clean and comfortable waiting room. If you're living in or near the East End then I would definitely recommend Whitehill Dental Practice. My teeths feel HAPPY! :D

My friend and I were leaving in the morning to make our way to the Scottish Highlands and I knew I had to be seen before our departure. I emailed 2 emergency dental clinics. Hammaad, the dentist, emailed me soon after they opened at 8:30 am and said he could fit me in at 9:15 am. I called him as requested and told him I would be on my way. The location was easy to find. Every single employee at the clinic was so kind. I was seen right away and they quickly took x-rays and started on my root canal. I told Hammaad that I was leaving to go to the Highlands and not returning to Glasgow. So he made sure to set me up for success. He cleaned out my tooth that had a bad infection. He constantly asked how I was doing during the procedure. Afterwards he gave me antibiotics to make sure the infection would go away. He told me he would call me the next day to check on me and called me while I was still in the office to ensure he would be able to get a hold of me. The cost of the last minute appointment, x-rays, and the root canal was 299 pounds. I paid out of pocket since I am a US citizen. But it was worth every penny as we all know toothaches are the worst. They gave me directions to the pharmacy and it took just a few minutes to pick up my prescriptions. Hammaad called me the next morning to check on me which was thoughtful and kind of him. I highly recommend this dental clinic. Everything and everyone was perfect from start to finish. I was able to still make it to the highlands and enjoy my holiday without any further pain. Thank you, Hammaad.

Due to my positive experience I decided to attend this dentist surgery all the time, they were able to allow me to attend with the same dentist who did my emergency treatment and I thought that I had found a good dentist surgery I could trust. However, after my first appointment I was told that my teeth had serious issues that couldn't be dealt with by a general dentist and that I needed specialist treatment at the dental hospital. I was pretty upset but grateful that they had managed to find the problem and went to the dental hospital two months later to get treatment, however when I was seen by a specialist they couldn't understand why I had been referred and told me that my teeth were absolutely fine and I only needed a few fillings. I returned to the dentist surgery but they then refused to see me which led to me finding another dentist surgery who are amazing and I have attended since. Since then, the dentist who I was attending at the time has left the surgery and I hope that my case was just isolated and very unlucky but it shows that you should definitely get a second opinion on things; I personally wouldn't recommend this dentist surgery after my own experience.

The 2nd two week wait made it harder for me again but the final part was made less scary by Mark and now treatment done. I would still worry again in the future again but he did help November 2015; I had to go again with another small worry but they are making time for me again, nothing seems a problem to them. Well I have been too many dentists with the exclusion of one I certainly didn't trust. But then along comes Mark. He is a ace dentist and I have total and complete trust in him. He knows about my personal issues and takes them on board when treating me. I always feel advice he gives is honest. Like for scalings due to issues with sensitivity makes sure I'm numbed up. He always makes time for me no matter what the issue is. He is a credit to the practise. Also I have met Jayne when I had plaque build up on a tooth and she helped great also. The reception staff always a pleasure, For me to go to a dentist there needs to be something good safe and comforting and this place ticks all the boxes I don't deny I'm still scared of going to the dentist, scared of what they might say and worse what might need to be done, but mark does make it easier

Price wise I think they are good value for treatment but I did think the scale and polish (approx £28 in June 08) was quite expensive.
