The dentist we've been going to for years has put in place a new policy whereby they won't book appointments for schoolchildren outside of school hours - annoyed and I think it breaches General Dental Council Standards guidance on discrimination on the grounds of age but I'm not sure I can be arsed to complain.


Can anyone recommend a dentist locally where you don't have to take them during school?

Sounds like a story for the SLP to me, what a rubbish policy and wrong on so many levels. What will happen in the school hols? Will your dentist refuse to see them at all then?


We go to the one above the chemist on North Cross Rd. I was there last wk booking apts for my brood and have 3 consecutive appts after school for them.

I emailed the practice for confirmation and clarification and it seems that this isn't the new policy at all, perhaps just a rather over zealous receptionist trying to manage the appointments. It did seem a bit odd and a bit off, especially as over the many years we've been going it's always been a rather positive experience.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
