Fantastic experience: Excellent care and a high quality treatment. I can add now that I am always more than happy to recommend Dr Desi as a professional who provides the highest standard of dentistry. We couldn’t ask for better service in the area. He keeps a good record of care which really matters over the long term.
Thank you

Fantastic experience: Excellent service from an NHS dentist which is really appreciated. I've had to rearrange appointments a couple of times and reception is happy to reschedule. Checkups are very good too. Dentist offers good advice and tips. Encourages use of additional cleaning aids to help prevent issues. Recommended

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Meltham Dental Care for many years. From walking in the door the staff are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Bal is a very experienced Dentist and takes time to explain things re your treatment, puts you at ease and is very professional , extremely knowledgeable and patient focused.

Fantastic experience: Always feel at ease and I’m very nervous of dentists
Fantastic experience: Have been coming here for a number of years now .. and the moment you walk in everyone is always welcoming and polite. In surgery my dentist explains what’s going to happen and gets the job done. I have a broken tooth but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort .. my dentist always tells me that if it’s ok then it doesn’t need removing or replacing .. I find that she’s not trying to do anything I don’t need and is happy if I’m happy. 10/10 from me.
Thank you for such a lovely review ☺️

Thank you ☺️
Fantastic experience: Our experience with Gus is always so positive. He is super friendly, always makes me and my two children feel at complete ease and is extremely knowledgeable. He always explains each process fully and the reasons why, which I think is really important, especially when visiting with young children as it allows them to understand what's going on and the benefits of having frequent check ups. We have been coming to see Gus now for the past few years and I would highly recommend him, he is a credit to the team at Meltham Dental Care and I hope we continue to have him as our dentist moving forward! I would also like to take the opportunity to thank the staff who work on reception too, as they are always so lovely. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that you felt at ease during your visit. It's always our goal to make every appointment as comfortable and stress-free as possible. We look forward to seeing you again at your next appointment. Many thanks for your lovely review!
Fantastic experience: I have been registered with MDC since 1991. Gus has been my dentist for the last couple of years and I have always found him to have a friendly, approachable and professional manner. He always takes the time to explain what he's doing and has given me the confidence to place my trust in him. My appointment this week was no exception and I am very happy that Gus managed to build up a tooth that I broke a couple of years ago and fit an onlay to preserve the tooth, my previous dentist had not thought this was possible due to the depth of the crack.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. We appreciate your loyalty to MDC over the years and are so pleased to hear about your positive experiences with Gus.. We’re especially glad to hear that the recent treatment exceeded your expectations and preserved your tooth – that’s exactly the outcome we strive for. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to Gus and the team. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience!
Fantastic experience: Excellent, professional and efficient service. Notably higher quality than other dental work I’ve had done, both in terms of procedure and results. Thank you.
