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?

    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
    • Nope, I'd just get on with my day and forget about it. And I wouldn't report them on the basis that they might spill my coffee in the future.  However the OP seems to think that this young woman is deliberately pushing her bell, slamming her gate etc, having repeatedly been asked not to. I'd wager the woman is a bit pee'd off and there's a bit of a stand-off going on. Best course of action is to go out, take the parcel, smile sweetly, say hello, tell her you hope she's having a nice day / staying cool etc, in a way that comes across as genuine and not pass-agg,  and to let it diffuse. Might find it calms down a bit.  But I like the girl hate the idea of her being denigrated on here when she works so hard. 
    • So of you're in a coffee shop and the barista is rude to you you wouldn't complain as long as you had received your coffee? 
    • OP, you've got to relax a bit. Multidrop delivery is a total nightmare and the delivery drivers are woefully underpaid. We as a society all want to order stuff online and for it to be delivered quickly and cheaply. The square gets circled by allowing companies like Evri to have sham contracting arrangements. None of this is your fault OP but the delivery person is just trying to get through their workload as quickly as possible. Delivery is not, historically, an industry with large profit margins. “The only way it can be profitable is if you underpay the person who is the courier, by not treating them as an employee, by not paying taxes, by not paying their insurance, by refusing to give them sick pay or cover them if they have an accident or train them,” says Prof Annabelle Gawer, the director of the Centre of Digital Economy at the University of Surrey. “That is where the ‘savings’ are coming from.” https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/mar/01/the-hidden-life-of-a-courier-13-hour-days-rude-customers-and-big-dreams
