The dentist is very gentle.” People we spoke with were complimentary about the staff who worked at the practice and said they were treated with respect. One person said, “They are all very friendly.” Another person said, “It’s all very good here; they are very nice people.” Staff told us people received good care and treatment, and their needs were appropriately met. They said good systems were in place to make sure people’s privacy, dignity, and confidentially were maintained, and gave examples of how they did this. People who used the service said they could talk to the dentist, practice manager or other dental staff if they had any concerns and were confident that they would listen and deal with their concern appropriately. Everyone we spoke with said they did not have any concerns or complaints about the practice. People were cared for, or supported by, suitably qualified, skilled and experienced staff.
