I am very grateful to my dentist. I have 69 year old teeth and am a bit phobic about. My dentist, Fotis, is very calm, gentle, supportive, non judgmental and keeps my teeth going! There is always a fix and he keeps me pain free. After so many negative experiences of youth I am no longer frightened of going to the dentist! Big thank you! All the staff are lovely from reception staff through to clinical.Posted on Google Sarah JankowskiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 ⭐️Dental practice.
