Dental hygienist


Sue

Recommended Posts

I just phoned the Gardens dental centre to make an appointment with the hygienist.


I was told I had to pay a deposit - fair enough, I was happy to do that.


But THEN I was told I had to go there in person to pay the deposit. FFS! It's pissing with rain! It's a twenty minute (at least) round trip!


Surely they can take card payments over the phone? On their website, it says call them to book your appointment, which clearly you can't do if you have to trek down there to pay the deposit.


In any case, I think the person I used to see at The Gardens has left.


So - can anybody recommend a good dental hygienist elsewhere in the area? And indeed a dentist, as I think I may move altogether now, and the excellent dentist I used to see there has left :(

I'd highly recommend the North Cross Road dentists called Smile. My hygienist there is Jack - he's brilliant. They do require a deposit, but you can make this by card, over the phone.


I also think if you call up on the day the hygienist is cheaper - but this only works if they have space and you have that flexibility!


Good luck!

A second recommendation for Jack at Smile. It's also handy that you can just make appointments with a hygienist there without having to see a dentist first. I'm not quite so keen on the dentists,I used to see them but due to an ongoing problem that wasn't dealt with satisfactorily ( long boring story !)I have changed to the East Dulwich dentists on Forest Hill Rd and am very happy with them.

How weird!


Maybe it was a new receptionist?


Or maybe they thought I didn't sound trustworthy!!!! I've been going there for years (before it moved to The Gardens) but they didn't ask my name!

    • The difficulty with all the national shame is that you are handing the world to the right wing populist parties ("The flag, love it or leave it").  You can look at many if not most of Europe for the damage their colonial conquests did to much of the world. For Britain we could equally look at partition and the impact on the Indian subcontinent, 10 million plus death and the bonkers situation with India and Pakistan now.  Spain and Portugal went much further in wiping out much of the population of South America.  i understand that Stalin was less.  We all know about the Third Reich, even then perhaps the allies could have done more. I am not questioning what you say, but sadly most are only concerned about the present and don't care about sins of the past. And back to my earlier comment that some will point out other 'conflicts' attracting much less interest. Not a reason not to march tomorrow

    • I'm interested to know why you say that? They both sell the same kind of thing, they both have own brand products, and unless I've got it completely wrong, they both seem to be trying to attract the same kind of customer? I would have thought a Waitrose and an M&S so close to each other would have split the customer base (?not sure of the correct term) for both of them? People might shop in both, but I'd have thought each store would still lose out on sales?
