I recently had an appointment with Hassan. It’s been ages since I’ve been to the dentist but Hassan made me feel really at ease and was thorough, attentive and professional throughout. He took the time to explain each step of what he was doing. He also gave some great advice for at home dental care. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the Dumfries area!

I had an appointment for a check up with Christina this morning. Assisting was Jo and i was introduced to trainee Ewan. Jo went over my medical history and Christina checked my teeth. I had visited the new hygienist a few weeks prior to my appointment so the check up didnt take long. Christina gave me good advice on taking care of my remaining teeth, and advice on improving my denture wearing. I booked in for a 6mth follow up appointment, i would have name checked the lovely receptionist, but i didnt get her name, sorry. Her telephone manner is great. Thank you😀x

Today I saw George, the dentist, and Hassan, the hygienist, for my check-up and hygiene appointment, and I have to say I was so impressed with how caring and reassuring they both were. George was incredibly informative and took the time to explain why I needed certain dental work by showing me my X-rays. I've never had a dentist talk me through them before, and it made such a difference. Knowing exactly why treatment is needed makes the whole experience so much less daunting. Hassan was just as reassuring during my hygiene appointment. He explained every step of the process as he went along, which really helped me feel relaxed and at ease. From check-in to check-out, the whole team was fantastic. A special mention to nurses Ash and Chloe, who checked in on me throughout my appointments and made me feel so well looked after. Ailsa and the reception team were brilliant and efferent in getting me rebooked in with the practice What a lovely, caring team. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them!

I had an appointment with dental therapist Hassan and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I was feeling quite anxious about going to the dentist, but Hassan was incredibly reassuring, kind and patient throughout my appointment. He made me feel comfortable and listened to my concerns without making me feel judged. I genuinely feel that he has helped me get my oral health back on track and has given me the confidence to take better care of my teeth. Most importantly, Hassan has helped me feel confident about going to the dentist again, which is something I never thought I’d say! I’m really grateful for his care and would highly recommend him to anyone who feels nervous or anxious about dental treatment.
