I have been twice to Dental Pods. It's easy to get appointments here (usually within a week). I have tried other dental clinics before and the waiting time ranged from a few weeks to 2+ months (private patients)!
The service was great too, from the reception to the dentists and assistants.
Pastor Colin Mason
Excellent service from the first phone contact with Juliana who was very empathetic and reassuring about my situation to my consultation with Dr Colm Doyle and eventual extraction of a very painful tooth. They managed to fit me in very quickly and I am no longer in any pain. I was provided with lots of sound information and recommendations on better looking after my dental hygiene. Will be going back very shortly for further treatment and am confident I will experience the same level of professionalism and care as my first two visits. Would highly recommend.

Just had stage 2 of an emergency root canal treatment and couldn't be more pleased with the service and the procedure. Having called randomly trying to find an emergency dentist, Dental Pods were very welcoming and treated me like a regular on my first visit. The staff were very friendly whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism. I would highly recommend to others and I will be returning for further treatment on other teeth.
