During a routine inspection
Patients told us that they knew how to make a complaint if they had a concern. They said the dentist and the nurse were approachable and they could talk to them without hesitation. Patients told us that the dentist asked them if they were satisfied with their care and treatment. We saw a suggestion box in the waiting area which people were encouraged to use to make comments and suggestions regarding their experience of the dental practice.
Comments from patients included: "I am satisfied with my treatment"; "This is a good dental practice".
Patients told us they would recommend the dentist to friends and relatives. A patient told us they have been coming to the practice for several years because they were satisfied with the care and treatment they have received. We were informed that all areas of the dental practice were clean and tidy.
