Bupa Dental Care Prestonfield: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I spoke with Shannon this morning to ask for an emergency appointment, I explained the problem, she made it possible for me to have an appointment with a dentist today, she was kind and extremely helpful. After my visit with the dentist Shannon helped with payment options.
Fantastic experience: a very professional practice and has been for years
Fantastic experience: So pleased I made the switch here, staff was really friendly and sorted my claim for me during the appointment. The dental hygienist was much gentler than I am used to. My colleague recently had an appointment here also and had nothing but good things to say too.

Fantastic experience: Tricia and Ola were wonderful to me
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Practice that always gives you the feeling they are paying attention to your needs. Attentive reception staff. Very professional service from the dentist. I could not recomend more.
Fantastic experience: My dentist, Andre Noroozi, performed a much dreaded and somewhat complex tooth extraction in half the time he had allotted for this, without complications. He was very kind and gracious when I arrived late and flustered, and had a chillout playlist running in the background to which he hummed along occasionally, creating an atmosphere of calm.
Fantastic experience: Very caring and professional

Fantastic experience: A well informed team of professional behind the reception desk helped me not only register but also schedule a visit for general check up within a week. My experience at this practice is very positive and am satisfied with the level of expertise the employed (operating denstist preserves). I would strongly recommend them for both NHS and Private dental treatment.

Fantastic experience: Great customer / patient experience! For someone that has grown up dreading the dentist, it has become a pleasure to go to the dentist! Professional/fun team! The team at Bupa Dental Care Prestonfield, demonstrate some of the best customer / patient experience I have seen. The team's friendly, patient focused care is fantastic. They make the process seamless and are always very supportive whether it is just a routine check up or issues with having to change dates last minute. Marion leads a fantastic team, and while it is unfair single out anyone Shannon is always there with a smile and an explanation of what is required procedurally. Above and beyond! Bupa Dental care have always employed some of the best dentists and even when I lived in London for 15 years I continued to come back to Prestonfield for my treatment. My current dentist, Ioannis is no exception. His patient care is superb. I always get a bit nervous at the dentist and find that distracting myself with humming helps. On my last visit he hummed some Handel while I worked to distract me! what dentist does that..!! Always impressed and grateful! :)

Fantastic experience: Great appointment today while my son had his wisdom tooth extracted. John is a great dentist & according to my son a very autistic friendly dentist.

Fantastic experience: Reception staff are always polite and friendly. I have never had bad treatment or advice from the dentist. 5*
Fantastic experience: All staff friendly and professional .
Fantastic experience: I have attended Bupa Dental Care Prestonfield for over 33 years when it was Ivy Dental, long before Bupa took over the practice. Recently, I required a heavily filled molar, that had some decay, to be drilled out, filled and topped with a crown. My new dentist Eunho Kim first of all spotted that it needed to be treated, then over two appointments carried out extensive dentistry, to ensure that the tooth was free of decay, filled, then fitted with a topping crown which fitted perfectly first time. Throughout the treatment I was very impressed with Euno's skill, thoroughness and patience. I would highly recommend Eunho Kim at Bupa Prestonfield
Fantastic experience: I have been with this practise for a few years and couldn't recommend it high enough. The reception staff are all very pleasant. They are very good at fitting us in for appts . The dentist is very good at explaining what needs done and goes over things if you are unsure . Very welcoming practise indeed of the highest of standards
Fantastic experience: Fantastic dentist, only one thing missing, a karaoke machine to make the waiting room a little more fun.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant staff , they make me feel relaxed and comfortable every time I go
Fantastic experience: Very professional practice I'm glad I got appointment will definitely be staying with this practice.
Fantastic experience: Excellent and professional service.

Fantastic experience: I attend this practice for my dentist and also with Melissa for facial aesthetics!!! I could not recommend this practice highly enough! 5
Fantastic experience: Very professional staff and setting. Was welcomed in so warmly. Great patient care from the reception team, dentists and dental nurses. Always a lovely experience.
Fantastic experience: What can I say about bupa prestonfield! What a wonderful practice, from the friendly reception team to the professional dental nurses! Nothing is too much for my dentist..
Fantastic experience: Very professional team, great service as always!
Fantastic experience: Great Practice especially Jeanette the Hygenist, but having moved to North Berwick 5 years ago and now retired from working in Edinburgh, I need a Fentisy closer to home so exploring options in East Lothian.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful service with very caring staff. I would definitely recommend them.
Negative experience: The reception team called to confirm my appointment the day before but gave me the wrong time causing me to show up late and miss the appointment. They are charging me £60 for the missed appointment. This is a total scam.
Fantastic experience: I had a new dentist Eunho Kim. He is a very nice dentist and made you feel relaxed. I was happy with the outcome of my crown. All the staff are friendly and the surgeries are all very clean.
Fantastic experience: This is a very friendly, professional efficient practice. I would like to share a recent experience of the service I received recently where the practice went the extra mile with a wisdom tooth extraction. Being a wisdom tooth it was a relatively difficult procedure, and due to this they stayed open until after 5pm when they normally close. The staff being Dr Gruber (dentist), Katalin (dental nurse) and then Marion (receptionist) followed up with a call the next morning - on a Saturday which was amazing of her too. Sadly, there is no option to give 10 stars.
Fantastic experience: Agnez is fantastic , and her dental nurse is lovely also , feel very comfortable and safe after my visits here xx
Fantastic experience: Great branch with approachable receptionists. Good availability and customer service. Quality hygienist Janette who completely changed the state of my teeth through education and quality cleans. Been a customer for almost 5 years and never had any issue! :)
Fantastic experience: Have recently joined the practice and had an appointment with Dr Eunho Kim, the new dentist, he was absolutely fantastic. Incredibly thorough and gave the impression that he really wants to make sure that your teeth are well looked after. My 6 month old son also had an appointment and I cannot thank Eunho enough for how amazing he is with such a young baby in their first appointment. 100% would recommend.
Fantastic experience: A Good Dentist i would Recommend. I have Used this Practice for over 45 years seen many changes not all for the better,but still a very good practice
Fantastic experience: I've been a patent here for years and had the very best treatment throughout that time. I've never been kept waiting: I'm usually seen within minutes of my arrival. On my recent visit I was seen right away. The ladies at reception are delightful,cheerful and helpful.The dental staff are wonderful.My visit was a delightful experience all round. Not something one usually associates with a trip to the dentist!

Fantastic experience: This has always been a fantastic practice for the 10 years or more that I have been registered with. Fantastic reception staff who have always been there to help when I've needed them most. A special thank you to my Dentist Agnes and Dental Nurse Shannon who were very patient with me during a particularly long period of local anaesthetic preparation before a tooth extraction; no rush, they gave me all the time I needed. Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: All good great service
Fantastic experience: Big thanks to Sophia, hope the next chapter in your career in London is good, will miss your excellent care for me. Best of luck and have a nice Christmas and new year xx
Negative experience: My girlfriend was in for an emergency tooth extraction after she had not been to the dentist for 13 years due to extreme fear of it, Joachim Gruber was the dentist he was absolutely horrible the entire time telling my girlfriend "crying wont help im afraid" and then going on about how she has let her teeth rot ect absolutely no empathy shown at all, and a constant attitude, anyone going here especially woman i advise you do your best to avoid him. i also got the impression he does not like people getting services through the NHS rather than private, as you will see from alot of the other reviews, Horrible man no idea how he is still in a job.
Fantastic experience: Both my dentist (Avis D'Costa) and my hygenist (Janette McColl) have been superb. Janette is very reassuring and kind, but tells you how it is and what needs to be done. Great, friendly, capable receptionists too. Excellent team.
Negative experience: I had a appointment today as a emergency for a extraction. The woman was not experienced in extraction was willing to give it a try .I burst out in tears .I ask who is and when can I get my extraction because I am in severe pain. Today is Monday I have to wait till Wednesday for a experienced Dr that can do extraction at 2 o'clock. I have been with the practice since I was 7 years old . It has changed alot . Would I recommend the practice at dalkeith Rd NO .
Negative experience: I've been going here since I was a child, back when it was Ivy Dental. I'd always been attended to well, got seen to swiftly whenever I had emergencies and staff polite and friendly. Since Bupa has taken over, there has been a slow decline in the quality of services offered and a lack of care to long term patients. In the last year alone I've had 3 last minute cancellations from dentists and hygienists with no renumeration, but simply given a date 4 months away from my original appointment. I've found even a checkup is getting rarer to get these days, and it's highly concerning. I'll stick with them for now but I am seriously considering going elsewhere given the disgraceful waiting times and disregard to long time customers.
Fantastic experience: Very professional staff and service
Fantastic experience: Excellent practice, the staff are all very friendly and professional, and just yesterday I had to go in for emergency treatment. The Dentist, Dr Grainger was very understanding, patient and was of great help in treating my condition.
Negative experience: Horrendous
Fantastic experience: Very nice staff (medical & reception). Great advice and care given
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and professional team from reception, being called and taken through to treatment room and dental treatment. No complaints whatsoever.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist and all staff
Positive experience: Prefer 6 monthly checks but now 1 year.
Fantastic experience: I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional care and professional service that you and your assistant provided during my today's 40 minutes dental treatment. From the moment I entered your office, I was impressed by the warm and friendly atmosphere, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the 40 minutes of treatment, you and your assistant demonstrated an unwavering commitment to excellence, showing remarkable skill, care, and attention to detail. I particularly appreciated how you took the time to explain every step of the procedure, ensuring that I was comfortable and fully informed throughout. Your kindness, patience, and expertise were truly remarkable, and I could not have asked for better dental care. Thanks to your excellent work, my teeth are now repaired and looking great, and I feel much more confident in my smile. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you and your assistant for the outstanding service that you provided. You are a true credit to your profession, and I will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone in need of dental care. Once again, thank you for everything. From Kam LEUNG
