Richard is a great dentist. He is thorough and professional and his dentistry is of the highest quality. He doesn't rush and makes sure the patient is happy with the result. I'm not scared of going to the dentist now that I've found Richard!

Dr Mumford has been my dentist for a few years now and I am always happy with his service. If you're looking for a dentist that genuinely cares about your dental health and not just looking to fleece your wallet, this is the place. He takes the time to explain things to you thoroughly so you can make an informed decision with your dental treatments. Can't recommend this place enough. 5 Stars!

I found Richard to be the best dentist I have ever been to and I am lucky to have all my original teeth or albeit with many fillings. I used to dread going to dentist but now I look forward to it.
