"Fantastic dental service"

About: Perth and Kinross Health & Social Care Partnership / Public Dental Service (Tayside)

(as the patient),

I needed to have some emergency treatment on a wisdom tooth, having just moved to Arbroath from England I hadn't even registered with a dentist. I have a real fear of dentists but the staff were amazing and were so reassuring and me feel very comfortable. 

The work had to be completed over two visits, Tom, my first dentist,  was quite frankly a rock, made everything seem effortless and painless to some extent.  He was assisted by the fantastic Louise. On the second visit I had Dr Herbert and her assistant Paige - they were equally fantastic. A student nurse saw I was stressed so held my hand throughout.

I am no longer afraid of a dentist visit and it's all down to these wonderful staff. I highly recommend this team and this practice.
