Had an appointment with the hygienist and was dreading it, my experience of those appointments are they can be just as traumatic as a visit with the dentist. I have avoided these appointments for years but have recently realised I need to take better care of my teeth and regular hygienist visits are certainly part of that.
Happily, there was absolutely nothing traumatic about my appointment with Debs/Deborah - she was attentive, listened to my concerns, asked questions about my dental routines and reassured me that she’d go steady and get a good job done. Honestly, I could not recommend her more highly or the dental nurse who assisted her - what a team.
She really did get a good job done, in fact, she did an excellent job, I’m not worried about my next visit and she has gone a long way to reduce my phobia of all things dental. Thank you so much

Constantly cancelling appointments. Needed a filling was advised no appointments for 4 months only for this to be cancelled and nothing available fir 3 months! 7 month wait for essential treatment is very poor.

Very disappointed with my experience at Village Dental Practice, Whickham.

After my NHS check-up I was told I likely had gum disease and was then repeatedly directed towards private hygienist treatment. Reception staff told me they only offer private hygiene appointments and I was asked to sign paperwork for private treatment, with little clear explanation. When I asked questions, I was told they could not answer as they were “not medically trained.”

Communication from management was also very poor, including being spoken over, threatened with cancellation, and a phone call being abruptly ended.

I was also referred to a private dentist for a filling and told it could cost over £1,000. I have since been seen by a new NHS dentist who assessed the same issues, found no significant gum disease concern, and completed the fillings under NHS treatment without any problems.

Overall, my experience gave me the impression of poor communication and unnecessary pressure towards private treatment, alongside unprofessional handling of patient concerns. I left with no confidence in the practice and would not recommend it.

Having experienced many dentist over the years I can not praise the quality of treatment and care that I have just received. I needed 2 fillings, which were particularly challenging, but my dentist, Alex carried out the work perfectly, he is without doubt the best dentist I have had the pleasure of meeting and would recommend both him and the staff.

Make appointments months in advance only to cancel them. Never receive reminders for check ups. Now they don't have an NHS dentist to see the children! Only Interested in implants and whiter smiles, go elsewhere!

Excellent. Megan was friendly and very professional. The treatment was pain free and time was taken to ensure I was happy with the result. Very happy to recommend the practice.

Very unprofessional today. Dentist already running 20 minutes late. Staff and baby come into visit and everything stops. Unacceptable. We were not the only patients to witness either. Your dentists need to understand people also have jobs and can't be as unprofessional or lax as they are. It's not acceptable at all. We can't all sit there all day waiting for them all to coo and smile at a baby, making appointments even later for people. Some of your reception staff need to have better people skills also when speaking to patients. Making poor excuses to patients when it's clear in the waiting area what is happening down the corridor only made the individual receptionist look stupid.

Thank you, Megan, for the care you took over my filling. I was extremely impressed by your skill and attitude during my 30 minute appointment. I think it the most relaxed dental appointment I have ever had ! Valerie Giles
