A huge thank you to Mr Patel for his exceptional kindness at my initial consultation. For the first time in four years, I left a dental examination with an air of positivity. It really is amazing how the professionalism and understanding of one person can make such a huge difference to my day to day worries in regards to my teeth.

I was expecting a diagnosis that would be negative. I was very relieved to find some positive alternatives that were suggested. I will be receiving treatment over the next few months which was booked there and then. I saw Dr Puneet Patel for a gum inspection and to discuss possible treatment options. I liked his relaxed and friendly "bedside" manner, which included also asking about my mental health which I thought was a nice touch given the current ongoing craziness. The exam itself was very thorough and I liked him showing me on screens against x-rays of what the options are. I now have some treatment options to consider. Mr Puneet Patel is an excellent dentist, caring, friendly and of a calm disposition who took time to explain my case and put me at ease straightaway. I highly recommend him.
