They gave me all the time I needed

February 27, 2021

I have left reviews before about DDHC but after my appointment yesterday I felt I needed to say this. Long story short,  I have quite a complex problem with one of my teeth, I have been seeing Dr Ali at the practice for some time where he has done everything in his power to save the tooth for as long as we possibly could. However it has now worsened and the time has come that I will have to lose it. My appointment yesterday was to discuss where I go from here, as at 39 years old you can imagine how worrying this is, bearing in mind I am the most anxious patient you could ever meet! My appointment was with Maz one of the other dentists that I’ve not seen before as Ali wasn’t available to see, Ara the CEO of the Centre actually also attended the appointment as he knows how terribly nervous and worried I was! (he is also my hygienist) Basically, I had a full check up, detailed examination of the problem tooth, and 4 x-rays woth Maz followed by an hour long explanation with both Ara and Maz of what my options were. They both gave me all the time I needed, explained everything 100%, and provided me with details of the costs for all options. Maz was fantastic throughout as Ali always has been, and Ara is just the most knowledgeable, genuine, honest, easy going Dentist/Hygienist/Ceo with a cracking sense of humour you will ever be able to meet! In all honesty when everything was being discussed yesterday it was as though I was sitting in a room with a good friend discussing everything that happens to be an expert in all things teeth! Towards the end of my appointment Ara told me about an experience he had personally had with a tooth, the way he told the story was just hilarious, I was literally nearly crying with laughter sat in the chair!! Having been terrified all my life to go to any dentist appointment I’ve ever had before I joined this practice, I am so so thankful I decided to register here. Everyone here is is just wonderful, including Sarah, the oral surgeon, she is just magic!! If you have any worries about visiting the Dentist, are anxious or are just looking for first class service, do not hesitate to register. Thankyou Ara and Ali, and all of your wonderful Team, don’t ever stop being you!! Xx
