Local services
« on: August 14, 2011, 10:46:18 pm »
Dear all,

I was wondering, on behalf of my wife, whether anyone knows of an NHS dentist that is taking on patients in the 3 Towns area?
We already have one, many, many miles away... which I will stick with.
Mrs Fester however has got sick of the travelling and organising her life around an appointment.

So, if anyone knows of a dentist (preferably a recommended one) with a vacancy, please let me know.

Spooky that. My son is back from Uni and is also on the look out for a local NHS dentist. I was just about to raise a thread before you beat me to it.

Suggest the best way is to sign up with a practice and go on the waiting list.  I am with Oasis in Princess Drive, Colwyn Bay and they seem to be taking new patients every time I and the wife attend so the wait may not be too long.    ££$

It's not expensive to go private. I use Rhos Road Dental practice in Rhos On Sea, excellent service.

The same goes with Rob Percy-Hughes in Mostyn Avenue in C-y-D.

I have been with Rob for the past 30 years.

When we moved here a number of years ago we rang NHS direct and they gave us a list of NHS dentists who were taking on patients.
It could be worth a phone call.

Depends on what you need doing - some of us are getting on a bit and the old knashers need a bit more attention!    ;D

That was all extremely helpful and prompt.

It seems there is potentially a fair bit of choice, and I shall get on to it in the next few days..  $thanx$ $thanx$ $thanx$

I need a new dentist. Have been with Oasis in Colwyn Bay and Mostyn Dental Practice in Llandudno in the past, but I'm thinking of going private, much against my principles, but NHS dentistry just isn't what it was. Can anyone recommend a decent dentist, preferably a practice rather than a one man.

Many thanks,
chemi

The Dentist in Deganwy Avenue, Llandudno, take N.H.S. patients as well as private. Although I do not know if they are taking on any new N.H.S. patients, worth a try.
