Emily

Emily, Head Dental Nurse, was very good at communicating with me, the patient, as to what was happening re my treatment. The dentist was concentrating on the job at hand and so Emily's reassurance and professional approach was invaluable.

From recption, to dentists and dental assistant, and back to reception were all patient, friendly and professional. I was a nuisance patient with lots of stupid questions and rotten teeth, but they took the time to explain pros and cons, including seeking advice from a colleague with specialist experience. Appreciate and value your NHS dental service !

I highly recommend this practice

I highly recommend this practice. The care and attention I have received here are second to none. George Billis did wonderful work and the implant matches my teeth so well you wouldn't know its not real! He has a wonderful caring team so any nerves you may arrive with soon disappear.

I thought the dentist treated me with top level care and most importantly the problem i had for the last wo weeks has been resolved pror to my departure to North America.

Best dentist I’ve been to

Went to them for years. They were always kind, patient and efficient. Even a year on after I moved to a new area I emailed them as I needed copies of their 360 xray. Within half an hour I was sent copies from amber. Truly perfect service. I’ve not known a dentist like them to be honest!

Superb dentists, friendly and excellent care

An excellent, professional, warm and friendly practice. My complex treatment plan over several months was designed to be minimally invasive, to achieve the best results with the lowest possible costs and inconvenience. The solution Gateway dental provided was elegant and intelligent, with a dedicated staff and superb service, other dentists had suggested brute force, bone grafts, or some cases, even rude. The treatment from Gateway was beyond compare.

Root canal marathon

No one would choose to have over three hours of root canal work but sometimes you just don't have any other option. I can't pretend it was enjoyable but it was significantly better than I'd expected, performed with real skill and care - and painless!

I have Autism and adhd, I get extremely anxious about medical/dental issues. Both the reception team and the dentist were amazing. Very high level of care, and was made to feel at ease at all times. I really can't recommend them enough.

My root canal treatment with Dr Billis…

My root canal treatment with Dr Billis was exceptional from start to finish. My options were explained to me very clearly, in a way that I could then make a well informed decision. The procedure itself was one of the least painful dental treatments I have had! I would highly recommend him.

I needed a complex root treatment

I needed a complex root treatment so my Dentist referred me to this practice. All the staff very helpful and friendly. Had a consultation with Maria Chountala who was very kind and explained everything. Dr Georgios Billis carried out the procedure he was expert at his craft and saved my tooth. I was pretty nervous but I knew immediately I was in very capable hands, he was kind and considerate and I felt at ease.

Paid £80 for nothing

Paid £80 for a consultation, they looked in my mouth said everything looks okay. They wanted to take three x-rays but didn't as I didn't have the funds. They would not allow me to owe them.

The week after my tooth split in half.

RIP OFF!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We’re genuinely sorry to hear about your recent visit and the subsequent issue with your tooth. It sounds frustrating, and we do understand why you’re upset.

The consultation fee covers a comprehensive oral examination and professional advice from our dental experts. While an examination can sometimes appear brief, it’s a critical step to identify potential issues and recommend necessary treatments. We regret that the limitations on funding prevented us from performing the X-rays, which are often necessary but do not usually show cracks within a tooth.

We are committed to providing high-quality care and ensuring our patients’ satisfaction. Please get in touch with us directly so we can discuss your concerns and find a way to address them. Your feedback is invaluable, and we want to make things right for you.

Thank you - Gateway Dental
