Appointments

APPOINTMENTS
At this our dental practice we see you by appointment only. Our Receptionists will be pleased to help you during these hours:

8:20am to 12:30pm Monday to Friday
1:20pm to 5:00pm Monday to Thursday

We try our best to be on time for appointments. The most typical cause of delays is the late attendance of patients, which has an inevitable knock-on effect for others. We respectfully ask patients to give themselves adequate time for parking, especially on Thursdays, market days in London. If you are very early, then take advantage: settle in, read the papers, sip a coffee! How to make an appointment.

When making a routine checkup appointment, if you know that you have a dental problem, please inform our receptionist so that she can allocate more time for you.

If you call out of hours, a recorded message provides information for emergencies. There is no facility for you to leave a message.

We ask you to please make any cancellation of appointment by providing one full working day’s notice within our working hours. If that is impossible, we still appreciate your word or note.

It is essential that you give the operator BRIEF information which must be:

the patient’s full title and name
their full STD phone number
the name of their dentist
Unless this information is supplied, then there may not be a response to your call. This Emergency Service covers only current regular patients of certain Dental Practices.

There is no need to go into details of the actual problem with the pager operator – only a small amount of information can be relayed (by text) to the Duty Dentist, who will then try and contact the patient. If you attend a practice out of hours, you must be prepared to pay in advance for the service. Our practice sees its own under-18s free for a genuine callout.
