They are just carrying out a refurb but it's taking longer than they originally anticipated. I am not sure the staff were given much notice as I was halfway through a course of treatment when I was notified of the closure. I'm not best pleased that I'm now having to wait an additional couple of weeks to finish the treatment.

It's 15th September and Townley Road dentist still seems to be closed, no answer message and the place looks abandoned. I have had to find another dentist in an emergency as a crown that was fitted by them at over ?500 has come out after 2 months, the other dentist was very scathing about the poor quality of work and I might have to have a new one. How do I complain about this dental practice which seems to have vanished?

I have previously complained to NHS England about my GP practice and felt it was worthwhile as action was taken as a direct result. If the dentist is an NHS dentist you can complain to them too...

I found the easiest way was to call them to lodge a complaint on 0300 311 22 33

I have not been a patient at this practise but accompanied a very nervous friend there a couple of months ago.

Rather than it being a calm place, the [?]owner was showing round the builders, letting them bang on walls outside treatment rooms, talking loudly about refurb plans whilst in the waiting room , ignoring patients etc and it all seemed very inappropriate. It clearly wasn't patients first and , from what everyone is saying here, it still looks like that.

I have been with this dentist for 25 years and they have been great. They we're let down by the last owner of the practice but seemed to be making a comeback which is why it's so strange that they have not kept patients better informed. I tried to phone today and still got no answer- anyone else got any updates?

    • Thank you all for your input- we had the children with their mother for a few days. individually the children went out - one  to the theatre and Camden Market and Horniman's. The other to the transport museum and Leicester Square (could not get in to the Lego place so went into M & M place) also Dulwich Park with his Aunty and cousin. My daughter is a special needs teacher in Sussex and even though schools have closed, she had  to work 2 days (INSET Days)  one day she had a 3 hour zoom call with her colleagues as could not find a child minder, so worked from home, the next day the 9 year old spent the day with friends so she could go to work. At least with us she could get some respite from child care. After much negotiation, their father in Liverpool  has managed to get some leave from his new job for 2 weeks. My daughter will drive them to Oxford where Dad will pick up. This gives my daughter a few days  without children to catch up with various friends in the Midland's and Yorkshire. I will search the science school link as above as there maybe something in the October or February Half Terms which we could enrol the 9 year old in. We try to support our 3 daughters with child care but most of the grandchildren are grown up which leaves us with 9,11 and 15 year olds. We have not been asked to look after the 6 year and 3 year old great grandchildren - !!! We are firm believers that grandparents should be active in their grandchildren's lives and offer support where they can. I looked after my eldest granddaughter when she was a baby and toddler one day a week so my daughter could work. My granddaughter is now 26 and we are very close as she is the only one living in London. The others are scattered around Kent, Sussex and Essex.  
    • I do know the care home julia tant was moved to
    • Our cellar was damp constantly and we were told that there were many underground streams in Dulwich (which eventually end up in the river in Belair Park),  Agree it is connected  to the water table. We had all old plaster removed from walls and replastered, 
    • Andy did a good job for me doing up a flat - bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen for a very reasonable rate. He’s a top notch painter and decorator and can turn his hand to many other trades too. I’d highly recommend him - nothing was too much trouble.
