I am beyond pleased with my outcomeChristopher, South Africa, 17 01 24

WOW, Dr Jay personally answered my call when i phoned in over festive period looking for a dentist for some relief. He was busy with an emergency procedure but told me to come on through and he will assist. Not even a month later and a tooth that's given me endless problems and i was referred for surgical removement previously has been removed, painlessly i might add. I have had a root canal and the most functional and beautiful bridge was made and fitted for me. The man's a cross between an artist and a master but oh so humble and reassuring every step of the way. I am beyond pleased with my outcome, the timeframe, the advice and explanations as well as the overall service. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
