I hate going to the dentist. I have a phobia about it. Well. My experience at Rivergum Smiles could not have been better. I knew that I had to get my tooth out, and had been avoiding going to a dentist for at least 3 years. I held out until my mouth started aching because of the tooth. I contacted them, they got me in quick. The dentist was amazing. Was calm and patient with me. He explained every step of what he was doing. I know this was a difficult extraction, but he did amazing. Did not feel it and the pain was minimal. Even now after having had it done. although I am in pain, it is not major

My family and I have been seeing Dr George and Lina for a few years now. Dr George is very professional, he is kind and compassionate and explains everything before he starts. I had to have two fillings done today and for the first time ever I did not want an injection. Dr George was so gentle I did not feel a thing. He continually asked if I was ok and kept drilling ever so gently. My 23 year old daughter was petrified of dentists until she met Dr George now she happily goes to see him as does my son. I highly recommend Dr George at Rivergum smiles and his assistant wife Lina they are beautiful

I am so grateful. With an unbearable pain, they have provided me an appointment in 5 minutes. Dr George Thomas is a professional, treated me as a family member. May Allahs mercy and blessings upon you and your institution. Thank you again.

I was very worried about finding a new dentist, but as soon as I met George and his assistant they made me feel comfortable. He explained everything he was doing and was very caring. I was very happy with the results.

George is the most meticulous dentist I have known and I have seen a few across different countries. He takes so much care with your root canal procedure and refused to do a quick fill it and forget it job when I asked. I got his contact from a friend when I had severe toothache and George was willing to come back when he was half way home after having closed shop, when I explained my predicament. I should also mention Leena, who doubles up as his assistant and takes care of the appointments etc. Very friendly and tries to accommodate you as much as possible.
