All the staff are extremely compassionate. I had a lot of pain from a tooth abscess and the beautiful receptionist calmed me down and got me in the next morning to be seen. When I came in for my appointment the next day she made me feel very validated. The dentist was efficient and professional. I highly recommend The Smile Place if you want good and caring dental work.

I have been going to The Smile Place for five years I was always terrified of the dentist after a traumatic visit to a dentist when I was young...Not anymore. Andre has to be the most caring and gentle dentist !! All the staff are wonderful too.

If you have a child who is terrified of going to the dentist, who has had a bad experience at another dentist, and REALLY NEEDS a dentist - GO TO THESE GUYS. Patience, expertise, great staff and really modern and comfortable rooms meant this Mum breathed a big sigh of relief! So did the 13 year old boy child who now looks forward to seeing Dr Wade and Ursula. THANK YOU! You were amazing and I really appreciate the way you take the time to explain everything to both my kids when they are in the chair. Mwah!
