Reliably offers the best dentist experience I've ever experienced and seem to get better each time. Friendly, hospital front of shop staff and considerate, caring and communicative people all round. Ask for Diona the hygienist and Chris the dentist and you won't be disappointed. Wish I could give 6 stars.

Dr Emily Illingworth is really great at The Dentist and takes the time to fully review your x-rays and discuss your dental health. In my 4 years going to The Dentist, I’d say 90% of the time they’re running 15-20 minutes late, which can be annoying if you’re going during the working day.

One of the best dental practices I've been to (Both their Balham and Putney branches). Chris and Kyla are excellent, very knowledgeable and skilled in what they do and ensure that all my queries have been answered. Appointments never feel rushed and they are very thorough in their approach. Receptionists also fantastic, friendly and efficient. - Amy in reception is also awesome too! Thank you The Dentist team. Please pass on my feedback to the team as its important its recognised the fantastic work they are doing each day for patients in, what is, a demanding industry

Dr Penrose was fantastic. I was very nervous and he made me feel at ease. The price was also very reasonable.

Skin boosters are injectable treatments that enhance skin texture, suppleness, moisture levels, and overall look.

 💧 The procedure entails injecting a soft, gel-like substance called 𝘩𝘺𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘤 𝘢𝘤𝘪𝘥 (𝘏𝘈) under the skin, which enhances the skin’s elasticity, tightness, and glow, thereby improving overall skin quality.

Often referred to as ‘skin quality’ treatments, skin boosters work to augment and promote the overall 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘲𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘺 of the skin.
