I’m really thankful to this dental surgery for helping me last minute, on the same day, because of the pain that I was feeling in my gum near the wisdom tooth. I rang up the surgery practice that morning as I read online that they offer emergency same day appointments for non-registered patients, however, it is not NHS-based, only private. I paid the fee, which was affordable, and I was allowed an appointment that same day, and I met with a really kind doctor who was so helpful and reassuring and put away any fears that I have of the dentist with his gentle manner. I mentioned about my autism and he made good adjustments to make sure I was comfortable. He examined my mouth and did an x-ray and it turned out to be an abscess. I was then given antibiotics and the abscess went within a few days. He did, however, advise an extraction of my tooth next to the wisdom tooth in the long run at my usual registered dental surgery practice, so that afternoon, I was promptly sent an email from the practice regarding the estimate of the type of service that I would require, following the private examination. Nothing was any trouble and the receptionists are such lovely ladies and very caring. Their smiles put me at ease as I was quite anxious beforehand. Thank you Leigh Dental Surgery for helping me face my fears. Great job!
