Very friendly and professional service all round. Thorough and very caring. All the staff put you at ease. Makes visiting the dentist an easy and worth while visit. Would highly recommend Dr Desmond and her team.

Thank you for reviewing your recent experience at Newport Pagnell Dental. We are delighted to hear you like our Hygienist and the patient care she provided you with.
Whilst we appreciate that you may have found our entry process over-cautious, we are still required to adhere to NHS England and Government Regulations for healthcare environments in respect of COVID19. This means that just like hospitals and GP surgeries, we are still required to monitor COVID symptoms and do our best to ensure a safe and COVID free environment for our patients and our team. We do hope that we may be able to return to pre-pandemic processes in due course but in the interim, we thank you for your patients and hope that you understand and appreciate that we must adhere to current guidelines.

Great staff.
Waiting times is not good enough. You need to change the system; the last two times I’ve been; the appt has been between 30/45mins late. There is no reason why sms messages can’t be sent out warning customers. At a very basic level, customers can alter plans, set their expectations etc.

Thank you for reviewing your recent experience at Newport Pagnel Dental.
We are really sorry to hear that you have been kept waiting in excess of 30 minutes on both your recent visits and we appreciate that this is not an acceptable standard.
We would like to reassure you that we do try very hard to keep appointments on schedule but sometimes we have a problem or an un-planned emergency we have to deal with which is beyond our control and can affect patient wait times. However we do appreciate the impact this can have on your day.
Whilst we don't have the resources to be able to send urgent text messages about delays, we have reminded our reception team to tell patients if their dentist is running late when they check-in so you can decide whether to wait or re-schedule your visit. We have also spoken with your Dentist to remind him of the importance of keeping to time and keeping waiting patients informed if he is running late for any reason.
We do hope this goes someway to show you that we value and appreciate your feedback and that we will act on what you tell us in an effort to improve the service for you and other patients.
Thank you again for your patience and we hope to do much better in terms of timekeeping at your next visit.

My dentist was fabulous as always but the over the top policing of all things COVD by receptionists and the fear inducing posters everywhere has marred by experience greatly. What use is a one way system other than making your patients feel like lepers?

Thank you for your review following your recent experience at Newport Pagnell Dental Clinic.
We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with our COVID19 procedures and protocols we have in the practice which are aimed at protecting our patients and our team. We do feel that it is very important to stress that whilst we really do hope we can return to our pre COVID19 procedures as soon as reasonably possible, unfortunately at this moment in time we must still apply and adhere to instructions from NHS England and the Department of Health who have told us that we have to continue with the revised standard operating procedures until further notice. This relates to all medical and dental settings in the UK so you will notice this in other healthcare environments and hospitals too.
We do hope you understand that we must remain vigilant and keep our safe operating procedures in place for the time being and until we are instructed otherwise by NHS England and the Department for Health.
We trust everything else about your visit met your expectations.

Thank you for taking the time to review your recent experience at Newport Pagnell Dental Clinic. We are delighted to hear that you think we provide great service but disappointed that you find our practice fees expensive. We do try our best to keep our fees as low as we possibly can and to ensure we remain very competitively priced against other dental providers locally. Our dental care plan for example is one of the best value options, allowing you to spread the costs of all your routine visits and offering 10% discount on any other treatment you may need, making dental visits more affordable. If you haven't already thought about becoming a plan member yet, then please ask us about our dental care plan before or at your next routine visit so we can share the details with you. Thanks again for reviewing your recent visit.
