I went with toothache today on the 1/12/21 and honestly I have never felt so at ease and welcomed by a dentist like this. The staff were incredible. I forgot the name of the dentist but his assistant is called Robyn. They both deserve recognition for how they treat their patients. Thankyou so much for making me feel at ease today. I don’t think I’ve laughed that much in a dentist before.

Great experience at Bateman & Best, the staff are lovely and have always managed to fit me in when I've needed emergency treatment. I had some work done last week to close a gap in my teeth which had meant I haven't smiled on a photo for years - I'm so pleased and can't thank Daisy enough for sorting it. No more hiding from the camera or trying to remember which way to turn to try and disguise it!

I usually see Matt - he is my dentist, but he was unavailable and I needed an emergency appointment. I saw Brodie instead. My experience was exceptional!! From being greeted into the building (very COVID safe!) and greeted into the surgery, I was made to feel so welcome. ALL the staff are so friendly and helpful. The whole place has a really happy atmosphere and really helps with my fear of the dentist! THANK YOU Bateman & Best - Highly recommend!! :)

Fantastic service and A* quality! Dr Best managed to do some emergency treatment on an abscess, requiring removal and replacement of my current bridge. He went above and beyond and I'm over the moon with the results so far. He really put me at ease with what was quite a tricky procedure. Really welcoming staff on reception also. Would highly recommend!!
