Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Wonderful and expert care

I had a great experience at Thurloe Dental. Booking was easy, and the team was skilled, responsive, and friendly. I was seen on time, and the care was excellent. The clinic has state-of-the-art facilities, prioritises comfort, and the front desk is efficient and welcoming. I would happily return and recommend Dr. Raza to friends.

Excellent doctor, absolutely disgusting customer service and receptionist treatment

Shameful outcome dealing with them. Booked a meeting on the wrong date, as it was being discussed face to face, and now insinuating I should pay for a cancelled appointment. Not only that but they cancelled all future appointments too.

Fair game, except a person that lives and dies by the calendar, I wrote everything down, including the exact times I commit to in person as the doc's office, only to get slapped by the receptionist that I am full of it.

Now I get slapped with a cancellation fee and rejection on all future appointments. Here's to a very well deserved 1 star review!

We are sorry to learn that you were unable to attend your appointment again. We take all feedback on board and pride ourselves in giving excellent customer service. Thank you for complimenting Dr Raza on his knowledge and skills.

Flavian, unfortunately have you failed multiple appointments and arrived late to your appointments and we have continually waived missed appointments charges for you as a gesture of goodwill and we have also accommodated you when you have been over 20 minutes late. We know you are busy and have been empathetic towards your workload.

We really do not like implementing failed appointment charges and to be able to use our clinical time effectively and efficiently, when you scheduled your appointment we sent you:

• A confirmation email right away
• A calendar invite
• A reminder by email 3 days before the appointment
• A subsequent reminder by text 1 day before the appointment

Therefore, please understand that we do not accept that we booked an appointment for you on the wrong date.

We have enjoyed looking after you and you are so very worthy of having appointments and dental treatment with us, but please do understand, we need to use Dr Raza's clinical time effectively and efficiently and when a person fails multiple appointments regularly or arrives very late we are left with no other option.
