Where have all the 'good' dentists gone?

[swingsound]

Hi, Could someone please recommend a dentist in the CP / Gipsy Hill / Dulwich area... the dentist we used in Townley Road ED, decided to move back to Ireland mid-treatment! It's very frustrating as he was brilliant (apart from the sudden departure!) others at the same practice seem to pick and choose what work they do, 'oh my area is this only, you need them for that' etc... so you end up seeing 3 different dentists at the same practice. I'm starting to realise a good dentist is like a good plumber... keep hold of them! Would rather go private and not a place where there is many new staff and locum / agency dentists. Thanks!

I use The Gardens Dental Practice, opposite Peckham Rye and can recommend Rasheed there, has been very good at sorting my teeth, far better than the previous dentist.

I'm supposed to be registered with them, but since Mr Freedman died and they moved premises, they have never contacted me for a checkup :(

Which was the dentist at Townley Road who left, as I was thinking of going there instead?

Think it's every year now

I had a tooth pulled last year in the Gardens - and it didn't want to go - its a good practice though.

I have used Mr Yeap at 4 Hannen Road, SE27 next to West Norwood train station for many years. My entire family use this dentist, even those who have moved slightly out of the area. Straight talking dentist that knows his stuff. We've all had good teeth just by keeping up with appointments. 020 8670 8889

Another recommendation for Rasheed at The Gardens, we left the Townley Road practice after a female practitioner there was truly harsh and horrible towards my nervous 7 year old.
