    Our Reviews

    My Mum has quite bad dementia so getting her tooth fixed isn't straight forward. Finding a dentist that would help was even harder. Not only were these guys helpful when I rang up but caring and empathetic. We got an appointment quickly and the dentist was so kind and patient with my Mum. Ultimately we got a fix for her discomfort and a plan of action should we need more help. Having such kind and practical assistance from everyone from the receptionist who initially took the call, to the dentist and his assistant... was marvelous. Happy to recommend.

    I had an outstanding experience at Alpha Dental Clinic. From the moment I walked in, the team was welcoming, efficient, and genuinely caring. Dr. Swati Anand deserves particular mention—not only for clinical expertise but also for their patient-first approach. She took the time to explain every step, answered all my questions with clarity, and made me feel completely at ease. Highly recommend to anyone looking for high-quality dental care!
