Testimonials
"What can I say dr Jeffrey and her team are amazing honestly. Went in crying my heart out came home with a smile. I was so nervous to have teeth out so I had dental sedation I had worries about not being able to find a vein due to my veins being difficult but doctor jeffery and her team put me at real ease even to the point of jut rubbing my shoulder so I knew someone was there (you really don’t know how much that meant) I would recommend this dental practice to anyone will be going back as need more work but the main big scary stuff is over and definitely in a lot better head space to go back with a smile THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART you have turned my fears of the dentist upside down ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" - Kim Jones
"As someone with a dreadful fear of dental practices, I had to get brave and go to a dentist. Age and tooth decay finally caught up with me. I was recommended the Willows practice and have to say they have been fantastic with me, put me at ease explained everything and why they have to do certain procedures. What my options were etc. Carl, Lucie and Nikita were amazing. Thank you so much. Needed fillings to front teeth and they now look great." - Lynn
"As a nervous patient I recently had root canal here and I can’t believe I actually went through it without sedation! I was able to do this with the help of the amazing Emily and her team who were so good at every step. Her confidence and attention to detail really helped me feel more at ease with the procedure.
I’ve needed sedation at a previous dentist to have a filling so to come here and have work done without sedation is something I never thought I could do in a million years. I’ve spent many sleepless nights panicking and pacing around with worry thinking that there was no chance I could do it, I even rescheduled the appointment many times before I went through with it. What an amazing practise!" -Simon
