Reviews of Christchurch Dental Practice
K. D.
I joined Christchurch dental practice last year after researching the local area for a good dentist for a few weeks. I chose Christchurch because of the brilliant reviews about customer service and professionalism of all the staff ! I was not disappointed ! It is a lovely warm friendly personable practice. Kind, reassuring staff. Prompt and thorough care with great treatment plans given. Derek is the most caring, highly skilled dentist I have ever come across who goes above and beyond to take care of his patients. Personally looking after me with my wisdom teeth issues and worries which I very much appreciate.
I am a very nervous patient and I have plans made to restore my smile with Derek with implants and veneers which I very much look forward to as I know I am in great hands.
Thank you to the team at Christchurch dental 💗

I don't tend to do reviews but I do feel that the team deserve all the praise under the sun! So pleased I joined and wish I did it sooner. Ash and the team have been absolutely fantastic from day one! Its probably the first time in my life I can say that I am actually happy to go and see my dentist!! I have had dental treatments and hygienist appointments and every time I go, I know that I am in great hands. Thank you so much :)

As an apprehensive 45 year old experiencing her first filling today. I would have no hesitation in recommending this practice. I was fully consulted throughout my procedure. Derek and the dental nurse were considerate and communicated clearly to ensure I felt in control, offering reassurance. Their professional and personable manner resulted in me leaving the practice feeling reassured.
S. B.
I attended a hygienist appointment yesterday and it was the best experience I have had! Christchurch Dental usually have very high standards-I’ve been with them for over ten years now- but they even bettered their own quality of service. Professional, caring, attentive. Highly recommended.
T. H.
There are three generations of our family who are very happy to patients of Christchurch Dental Practice. No matter what complex needs we have presented to Dr van Staden and his team from dental implants to root canal treatment or routine hygienist appointments, we have been treated with amazing kindness and expert care. Thoroughly recommended.
c. p.
Was referred to Christchurch, they were brilliant. The whole process from booking the appointment to the actual treatment was first class.The whole team from the reception, dentist and support team were caring and ensured that I was informed what was going on at all times.It put me at ease and inspired total confidence on what was happening.
N. L.
Excellent as always. Professional and friendly. I’ve been a patient for several years and I’m very happy. Both the dentist and hygienist were careful and considerate and the equipment is stunning! A very knowledgeable and up to date practice.
S. T.
Excellent experience - 10/10. I had wanted to do Invisalign for some time and after a bit of research in the Ipswich area, I decided to go with Christchurch Dental in November 2019. Eighteen months later - I have finished my treatment today and I could not be happier with the results.
Derek and the rest of the staff at the practice were so supportive, flexible and professional throughout my treatment. I moved to London halfway through my Invisalign, which I was anxious about in terms of keeping up with my treatment, but the team at Christchurch could not have been more supportive, and advised me that they would always work around you, which I was so grateful for.
If you are even debating whether to get Invisalign, 1. Just go for it - you won't regret it if you have the means, and 2. I would thoroughly recommend going with Christchurch dental.

10 years ago I visited the Christchurch Dental Practice…due to emergency treatment required but never returned only due to my high anxiety, Fobia and Tears of Fear etc. of all Dentists. Following Pressure from Family and Friends who want to hear me laugh and see me smile again, I am now attending this lovely Practice for much needed dental treatment.. yes, I wish I had gone back 10 years ago..Due to a welcoming and reassuring call from Gabi (apologies for the tears, Gabi) with an awesome plan of action/treatment agreed at the start…. I shall be attending my 6th treatment. My anxiety issues are now at level 3 out of 10 due to “Baby steps” taken, quoting Dr. Ashvin, my reassuring Practitioner.
By the way, Gemma and Brogan, I am soo sorry i squeezed your hand soo tightly during my treatment …….and the odd tear of fear….!
It is the welcoming smiles from the lovely Team, Rebecca and Chloe in Reception….and a “hello” from Dr Derek …whilst I sit in the waiting room, discreetly glancing now and then at the exit door, that I return for my treatments. No matter how complicated your treatment will be, allow me to highly recommend a call, please don’t wait for pain to occur (especially when you are on holiday abroad). Speaking from experience, you will treated as a Person whilst you are under their care, not just a Patient…..Thank you to all the Team at the Christchurch Dental Practice.
R. M.
I used to hate going to the dentist until I joined Christchurch Dental Practice. Derek and his whole team make the experience so much better.
T. S.
Derek and his staff always give a personal service, which leaves me at ease when in the chair, something I always used to get anxious about! The difference they made to my smile and confidence, after a sports injury to my teeth, was amazing. I get many compliments on my teeth now which makes me smile even bigger. Thanks to all the staff at the dental practice, you do a great job
M. R. D.
Outstanding service. All so friendly and make the whole experience of going to the dentist as comfortable as they can. Especially as I am a nervous patient! The facilities and tech used is amazing. I would strongly recommend Christchurch Dental Practice to everyone.
c. k.
Ashvin performed my first appointment at the Christchurch dental practice.
He was very pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in my teeth.
The camera and up close views of my teeth was new to me and is a wonderful way to see your teeth up close (and personal)
Overall, a great experience.

Derek is one of the best dentists that I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. Very well spoken in a calming, yet reassuring voice and he explained things very well. The nursing staff to the receptionists also compliment the relaxed experience well. Highly recommend Christchurch Dental!
P. H.
I joined Christchurch Dental as a new patient almost a year ago and I'm over the moon that I did. I cannot fault the practice one bit.
Derek and his team are amazing! They make you feel so relaxed and welcomed, providing the best service.
Everyone from the receptionists, to my dental hygienist Laura and to Derek are outstanding.
I would 100% recommend Christchurch Dental to anyone.
L. R.
Christchurch Dental are the best dentists I have ever been to. Derek and the team make you so welcome and it feels like a truly personal experience. Laura the hygienist is so personable and happy to answer any questions and she explains her process so you know exactly what is going on. Dr Ash is such a warm person and he is so good at answering questions and explaining treatments. Derek will always stop and say hello no matter how busy he is. They are great with nervous patients and their Covid precautions are incredibly well thought out.
A. H.
I can thoroughly recommend Christchurch Dental. I am a new patient and I have had my initial consultation with Derek, followed by a hygienist appointment with Anna and another appointment with Ash. Everyone I have seen so far has been absolutely amazing - so kind, considerate and caring. They have so much time for their patients, they explain everything in simple terms and I even had a phone call in the evening to ask how I was. I don't think I will ever be able to say I enjoy going to the dentist, but Derek and the team certainly make it as comfortable as possible. I really wish I had joined them years ago! Thank you :)
K. M.
Having visited Christchurch Dental for several years, I can highly recommend this friendly and very professional Practice. All the team are welcoming and caring and adhere to very high standards. On our most recent visit, we received excellent care and attention from Laura for our hygienist appointments. Ash was equally attentive during our check-ups, taking time to explain everything and making everyone feel at ease. The surgery is always immaculately clean and the team is managing the Covid 19 situation admirably.
J. O.
Great hygienist visit today, professional, informative and friendly, fantastic! many thanks Rob and Ali..great team.
D. F.
Recently I had a root filling from the mid 80's refilled and a crown fitted by Derek. It's one of those things that I wonder why I hadn't had done so much sooner, guess I was worried refilling wasn't possible and I didnt want to lose the tooth.
Well I can safely say getting this root refill and crown was one of my better decisions.
The root filling wasn't the easiest for Derek as there was a broken implement in one of the roots, from when it was first filled in the mid 80's. I think getting that implement out made Derek's day, I know it made mine.
The whole team at Christchurch always go out of their way to put the patient first and are always a pleasure to deal with.
L. G.
After going to my own dentist recently and coming out of there upset with the experience I decided to go private. I have never had an experience like I did with Christchurch dental. From first knocking on the door to the moment I left I was treated to the highest of standards. Derek was a pleasure to see and his knowledge was incredible. He really does make you feel so at ease and talks you through absolutely everything his doing. I thank Christchurch dental and am excited to speak with Derek again regarding my treatments 😊
M. R.
I have had extensive dental treatment, including implants, at Christchurch Dental Practice over the past 3 years, and I am extremely pleased with the service I have received. Derek's attention to detail is impeccable, and he goes to great lengths to maintain high standards, to explain every step in the process, and make the patient feel at ease. The practice staff are amazing, making for a very safe, friendly, and comfortable environment. Highly recommended!
F. R.
As an extremely nervous patient who has avoided the Dentist for the last 14 years, Christchurch Dental has been brilliant. From my initial booking to the treatment I have received so far, they have been so accommodating, considerate and patient; ensuring my experience has been as comfortable and stress free as possible. Derek has been fantastic. I would highly recommend Christchurch Dental, especially if you are a nervous patient or have had a bad experience in the past. I couldn’t be more pleased & impressed!
H. H.
My only regret with this dental practice is that I didn’t join sooner. Everybody is effortlessly friendly and puts you at ease. Treatment is thoroughly explained and options given. After previous bad experiences elsewhere, I feel relaxed and have confidence in the fantastic team at Christchurch Dental. 5 star treatment and care.
E. M.
I am a new patient at Christchurch Dental and I am also a VERY nervous one. From the very start, my hour long first visit was amazing. Derek and Becs, his lovely assistant, carried out a very thorough examination, nothing like I’ve ever had before at previous Dentists. They made me feel calm and comfortable, not doing anything until they explained to me what they were going to do every step of the way. I have a very painful and troublesome tooth, Derek advised me of all my options and explained, in detail, what they were, even drawing a picture for me so I could understand what my problem was and what can be done. I have opted for a Crown with sedation in a months time and I am actually looking forward to going back at the end of March to have the procedure done. Never thought I’d EVER say I’m looking forward to going to a Dentist! I may actually keep up regular visits instead of only going when I absolutely have to!
The practice is clean and bright and they adhere to strict hygiene procedures from the moment you walk through the door. I can’t praise enough not only Derek and Becs but all the staff at Christchurch Dental. I’d give more than 5 stars if I could. Thoroughly recommend anyone to this practice. 👍👏👏
A. N.
Exceptional, Professional, Caring & Welcoming! As a new patient of the practice (and a nervous patient overall), I could not recommend Christchurch Dental Practice highly enough. I have the pleasure to be cared for by Dr. Ash. Every step of the way I was made to feel comfortable, relaxed and in control. Dr. Ash is bar far (in my personal opinion) the best dentist I have ever had! My Hygienist Laura was wonderful, knowledgeable and gave fantastic advice.
If you are anxious, nervous or ever had a bad experience previously, I would recommend to you this practice! Dr. Ash & Laura and the Practice itself, has me for life! I could not thank them enough for the high quality of care, and understanding that they have shown me.
Everyone here is wonderful from Clare, Gabriela to Brogan & Macy! Thank you all for giving me back my confidence, you truly have not only restored my teeth but my faith in exceptional quality dentistry!
J. G.
Earlier this year I had a tooth root filled and the level of care and precision was excellent. More recently, my hygienist appointment was also very professional and stress free. Everyone there, makes one feel very welcome. The very strict protocol they operate for protection from possible Covid transmission gives great security to both patients and staff.
K. E.
I've been with Christchurch for many years and have always been delighted with the standard of care and customer service received. My recent appointments this year during the coronavirus have been no exception, and I have been very impressed with the unstinting professionalism of the practice. In addition, Derek and his staff have kept me continually updated by email on the service they have been able to provide, during and outside lockdown, together with all protective measures put in place.
S.
I would like to say a big thank you to Dr Ash and all the team at Christchurch Dental Practice for the friendly professional treatment, care and aftercare they have given me from start to finish.
I can honestly say I have never received such professional friendly dental care in my life.
I'll openly admit to being a nervous patient, But Dr Ash and the team made me feel at ease during my treatment, from the moment I turn up for my appointment, to the moment I leave.
From my very first visit, right through to the end of my treatment, everyone at the practice has treated me exceptionally well, the whole team are always professional, always polite and friendly, all are a credit to dentistry and to the practice.
So to all the team.. A big thank you once again for looking after me like you have and for the warm welcome each time I visit.
J. L.
As a new patient I was very happy with all the staff and the service provided by Christchurch Dental Practice. My only regret is that I never registered earlier. Everyone is very friendly, helpful and, being very nervous of the dentist, everyone was so understanding and did their best to reassure me. As I hate high-pitched sounds, Derek very kindly put himself out to provide me with headphones and some great music while I needed to see the hygienist for a clean up. Not like a dental surgery at all as everyone is so nice. After only 2 visits, my dental phobia is disappearing fast and my mouth and teeth feel wonderful! Would thoroughly recommend to anyone nervous of the dentist and everyone else too. Couldn't wish for a better dental surgery. Thank you so much!
M. W.
Needed an appointment at short notice which was accommodated the next day. Excellent reception team, nursing staff were fantastic and Dr Ash was superb. Very clear with treatment plan and cost. I cannot recommend this Practice highly enough!
M. M.
I am so pleased with the professional and caring treatment I received from Derek and all his team. I am an extremely nervous patient and did lots of research before selecting a private dentist, I was actually recommended Christchurch Dental by another dentist ,I couldn’t be happier with the 2 procedures I have had so far .I am actually looking forward to my next visit 😊 Many thanks
A. P.
5 star professional service. I recently undertook treatment to have my teeth straightened using Invisalign, and some final cosmetic work to repair some damage to my front teeth. Throughout my treatment Derek and the Team were very supportive, and took the time and care to ensure that I was happy with the final result. Overall, I am extremely happy with the outcome, and would highly recommend Christchurch Dental practice due to the great service I have received.
C. L.
I have been attending this Practice for many years. Very friendly and professional staff. Always greeted with a smile. Regular updates on current situation and a lovely Newsletter keeping patients updated with all their news. Highly recommended.
S. K.
I’ve been with CCDP for 3 years now, undergoing Invisalign treatment with Derek - who I can’t recommend highly enough! My smile has been completely transformed already, and I can’t wait to see the end result.
Right from my very first consultation with Becky, I’ve been so well looked after, and I loved the personal touch of a handwritten notecard in the post, welcoming me to the practice. The reception staff are always so helpful and efficient.
I recently had my first appointment with Laura (Hygienist) - who was every bit as kind and reassuring as all the other staff at CCDP. I’m a ridiculously nervous patient, but nothing fazes them!
c. l.
Excellent in every way. I called as an emergency patient and was seen the same day. The receptionist was lovely, follow up was really caring, the dentist was a really nice guy and his work was excellent. I had a chipped cosmetic filling replaced, which I've had done a few times by a few different dentists, and this time was by far the smoothest procedure and the neatest result. Highly recommend them!
F. H.
My son-in-law recommended Derek and his team to me and I can see why. All of the staff have just the right mix of professionalism and friendly care. As a nervous patient I was greatly reassured by Derek's explanation of what my treatment entailed and I was given the opportunity to ask questions. The evening follow up call from Derek was much appreciated. The nearby parking arrangement is a great advantage too. I would certainly recommend the practice to family and friends.
L. S.
My husband and I have been attending this outstanding dental practice for many years. We always receive a warm welcome by name on arrival, and all members of staff provide a good balance of friendly and personal service whilst remaining efficient and professional.
Both Derek and Ash are amazing dentists, both of them putting you at ease and explaining what they are doing each step of the way. I would like to say a very big thank you to Dr Ash for work recently undertaken. He is such a perfectionist and so patient.
N. B.
I always have a enjoyable experience when visiting Christchurch Dental Practise. Derek and his team are all highly professional whilst remaining friendly and approachable. I will always highly recommend this team.
S. P.
As an anxious patient I find everyone at the practice brilliant at putting you at ease, friendly and helpful.
After having treatment today I have to say that everyone including Derek and Ash went out of their way to make me comfortable and at ease. Ash is brilliant and I can’t recommend the practice enough.
Thanks very much!
G. R.
Recently started coming to the practice, has improved my overall view on visiting the dentist - they take time & care to explain every step of the way and always happy to answer any questions.
I Had an appointment today with Dr Ash for 2 filling on my front teeth & was pain free and done with photos of every step taken to review the work done after. Highly recommend.
R. (.
I joined Christchurch dental practice at the beginning of the year after having some bad experiences at other practices and while suffering health anxiety I wanted to get my oral health back on track, I am a nervous patient but everyone at the practice were welcoming and easy to talk to. Derek was brilliant and you can just tell how much he loves his job. Thankyou for everything guys, I highltly recommend this dentist.
M. M.
Thank you !!! After root canal treatment with another dentist on Wednesday I feel horrible pain. My dentist don't have time !!!! But Christchurch Dental give me appointment same day on SATURDAY. Do everything properly, give me antibiotics and day after pain gone. All staff are friendly and helpful. 3days after my appointment...they are called me and asked how I feel. Can't recommend enough.
R. S.
I have been a patient at the practice for many years and have watched it expand over the years. Derek and his staff are always attentive and take care to fully explain the procedures they propose and give alternatives where there are any. The expansion of the practice has aided getting emergency appointments when necessary and I look forward to completion of the expanded practice rooms.
The care is exceptional as once when travelling to SE Asia I developed an issue at Dubai and Derek happily responded to an email with a picture of the issue I had and gave advise as to how to deal with the matter until my return.
j. p.
I have been with the practice since it was taken over by Dereck many years ago, in that time my whole family have been looked after by the team, our children have grown up and moved on but still entrust their care to Christchurch Practice. I can't praise them enough I have been extremally happy with our care and would have no hesitation in recommending the practice.
R. D.
Simply the best dental practice in the Ipswich area. The 2 dentists saved me from the worst pain I have ever experienced. Derek and Ash are extremely professional, welcoming and charming. I didnt ever think I would say that it would be a pleasure to go to the dentist but Christchurch makes it such an easy experience. From the professional and friendly reception staff, to the diligent nurses, hygienists and dentists, Christchurch really is a cut above the rest. Well done to an extremely well managed and professional team. Thanks again!
B. S.
Visiting Ipswich, just one day before a holiday to Japan, on a Friday afternoon, I had a dental emergency when part of a tooth supporting a crown broke off. The exceptional and friendly receptionist found an appointment for me on the Saturday morning and Derek was able to carry out the necessary repair work in time for me to catch the flight later that afternoon. I was extremely impressed with the very professional and caring service provided and do not hesitate in recommending the Practice. Exemplary!
D. B.
I am extremely pleased to have joined this Practice. My husband had a tooth which needed to be extracted and was causing a lot of pain. Our previous dentist put a referral in to a specialist clinic in Foundation St. After 6 months an appointment was made to remove the tooth, only to be told this could not be done because the clinic did not have a burr to cut the bridge attached to the tooth. After taking advice from a friend (a retired dentist) this Practice was recommended. My husband had a consultation with Ashvin the next day and the tooth was removed the following day. What a relief particularly as lockdown happened very shortly. I have also joined the Practice and had a tooth extracted by Asvin and we both have had hygienist appointments with Laura. We have had excellent care from both Ashvin and Laura and would highly recommend them both.
R. H.
I have been a happy and satisfied client for many many years and have just had to have metal dentures made. First class and friendly service from Ash(Dr Ashvin Babbar) who has taken great care to ensure a correct and comfortable fit. Thank You.
19/03/21 I stand by my last review but unfortunately my experience yesterday was not so good. I arrived on time and then had to wait 50 minutes in a draughty but covid free waiting room before I was seen. It was a routine appointment for a dentist and an hygienist. I never saw the dentist nor did my wife with a similar appointment. We have paid for private dental treatment for many years at this practice.
D. S.
Following a stroke, my wife has a number of disabilities. She had a session with Laura on Friday and from start to finish her additional needs were catered for and she was made to feel totally relaxed ( me also). An amazing team.
J. D.
WOW this place deserves 10/10! I have'nt even had my treatment here yet, but i have had my consultation and my discussions appointment. I have all of my treatments booked in the next few months, the first impression i had of this practice is wonderful the staff who i have met so far have been outstanding, being a nervous patient and not much confidence with my teeth, i feel fully assured that i will be a happy girl once ive had my treatment. I already feel confident with my dentist Ashvin he has been very supportive and understanding, the practice is clean, comfortable and modern and your made to feel welcome by the lovely Clare on reception on both occaisons she has made me feel comfortable and also the communication is great. Look forward to seeing you guys soon. Thank you Christchurch dental practice
P. S.
Staff are always polite and helpful. From the moment you telephone you know who you are speaking to and the COVID precautions are excellent. You are always given ample time to discuss any proposed treatments. One small point, photo on the website needs updating
D. P.
I have been a patient at Christchuch Dental for many years. I have recently had root canal treatment with Dr Ash. I cannot praise him and the team enough. He is totally professional, courteous, kind and always taking time to explain. I would highly recommend this practice.
H. C.
Thank you to Derek and his team for giving me such confidence in a dental practice as well as in my smile. I had an initial consultation with Rebecca and felt instantly at ease and Derek was amazing, he made me feel so comfortable after years of being scared to go to the dentist. After having Invisalign I still can not believe I have the smile I always wanted. Thank you so much.
C. C.
Before I visited this Dentist I was Really nervous about going and when I started coming the Dentist was kind and understanding and helped me slowly and made me feel confident in going and at the end of my treatment they brought me a branch of flowers to say thank you for being a nice patient.
A. S.
Complex filling of part broken molar successfully completed.
Felt I was experiencing first class dentistry by a very professional practitioner.
J. B.
I'm a new patient at Christchurch dental practice and so glad I chose to come here. Everyone has been so welcoming and treatment has been 5 star. Wish I had come yrs ago.
K. K.
Excellent practice. All the staff are great, as well as professional, and you always feel well cared for. Worth also noting that for the time being, they are taking Covid related hygiene very seriously, which is immensely reassuring.
J. P.
After calling around every possible local dentist to no avail, I Called 111 to confirm that I had an abscess, they then referred me to Christchurch dental surgery for a telephone consultation, after calling and leaving a message I had to await a call back, which didn’t take as long as I was expecting, the man I spoke to (forgot to get his name) was incredibly helpful and seemed to actually want to help me, which I was really appreciative about as all the others were really unwilling to help despite being my local ones, he prescribed me the antibiotics I needed and had it sent to my local pharmacy here in needham market, a minor hiccup happened somewhere as the pharmacy said they never received and after another phone call he told me he had called them direct to sort it out and that it will be there ready within half an hour!
Cannot thank him enough for his services, helpfulness and even the care he had for me, even if it was just over the phone!
Note- moved just prior to lock down and cannot register with any dental practise till after and my usual one is back in Essex!
S. G.
This dental practice is outstanding. We always receive a warm welcome by name on arrival, and all the staff manage to provide a wonderful balance of a friendly and personal service whilst remaining efficient and professional. The dental care is excellent, and I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.
P. A.
Having had horrendous experiences as a child, I could not imagine ever looking forward to dentistry. Derek and his entire team laid that ghost pretty much from the first visit.
I realise that I presented as a challenge but I am convinced that, without Christchurch Dental, my attitude to dental health would have remained negative.
T. W.
As ever the staff at Christchurch dental practice are efficient, friendly, professional and always make me feel important and relaxed. Thank you so much for looking after me. Tricia
J. L.
Once inside the service was, as always, excellent. However, making patients wait outside in the wind and rain is not good. Whilst I appreciate the current restrictions it would not be difficult to install a "smokers" shelter were the cycle station is so that, even with social distancing, two people could at least stay dry.
P.
I’d like to say a big thank you for the work you've done at Christchurch Dental to restore, straighten and improve the appearance of my teeth. To say I’m pleased with the outcome is an understatement. Previously I’d always felt self-conscious of my smile and misaligned teeth in social situations so I only wish I’d made the decision to do this years ago! Everything about the service at Christchurch Dental practice is first class - thanks again.
D. C.
I have been a patient at the practice for the last four years and have found the whole team helpful and professional. I am not the best patient by any means, but Derek has always been so kind and considerate to me which I appreciate so much. Thank you.

I had too have three fillings and was in the chair for about three quarters of an hour. Derek and the nurse were very attentive and while I would not regard it as the most fun experience of my life, I felt very comfortable in their care
R. H.
Have been seeing Derek and his team for close to 10 years now (time flies!). A few things make Derek stand out:
- I always know what's going on. Some people might not want to know but it's is important that I am not just sitting in the chair with my mouth wide open!
- Professional and courteous
- Latest technologies - you don't feel like that you are being seen from someone in the dark ages!
- Follow-up care: perhaps one of the most important aspect - I never feel that I am left alone after an important procedure.
My entire family goes to see him. If that's not a positive testimony I don't know what is!
K. N.
Hello Christchurch Dental Team.... Thank you for the treatment that you have given me yesterday after my missed appointments due to covid lock down.... All of you... from reception through Laura and her team to Ash and his team were truly amazing.... I felt quite at home... I am looking forward to my planned visits and your kind care.

Staff friendly & kind without being patronising. Excellent treatment, taken at a comfortable pace & explained at each stage. Impressed with the time & care taken to 'get it right'. Professionalism of the highest standard.
C. H.
Derek is an excellent dentist who takes pride in offering the highest level of service. It's a really friendly small practice where patients really matter. Highly recommended.
N. M.
Derek and the team put you at easy and make a visit to the dentist as pleasant as it can be. Very pleased with the service - my wife and son have now joined. All advocates.
H. T.
Always welcoming, caring and professional. I've been coming to Derek since he started the Christchurch Dental Practice in the noughties.
D. G.
I have been attending the Christchurch Dental Practice for some years now and have always received excellent and efficient service and care from all the staff.
E. L.
The visit made recently was well managed under the new restrictions. This time when I arrived I was greeted immediately so I did not have to wait out on the street unsure if reception really did know that I had arrived. Staff are always very pleasant and professional.
S. C.
Recently had an appointment at Christchurch dental practice under the new constrictions the team have gone above and beyond I felt incredibly safe and comfortable throughout my whole visit.it was very friendly which compensated the fact it has to be over sterile which can sometimes under these covid times can loose the friendly atmosphere these guys have got it so right, simply the best dental practise in Ipswich
G. M.
Good service by friendly staff. Always a pleasure to sit and have a chat with Ash and the girls. Good advice as always with every visit. Will endeavour to floss everyday
M. J.
Wonderful dental practice 😁excellent dentists and very professional staff. Extremely efficient 😀
R. K.
visit to hygenist went well. good efficient treatment. only criticism is having to wait on the pavement outside could be very uncomfortable in inclement weather particularly with the approach of winter etc.
B. H.

This is a lovely practice. Very patient and kind when we are running late or kids are nervous. We travel for 2.5 hours to go there from Lincolnshire (used to live in Suffolk) and wouldn't go anywhere else!

A GOOD EXPERIENCE ALL ROUND FROM THE MOMENT YOU WALK IN THROUGH THE DOOR. A WARM WELCOME FROM THE RECEPTIONISTS. A BRIEF WAIT IN THE WAITING ROOM, AND THEN INTO CLEMATINES CHAIR TO BE TREATED WITH CORAL ASSISTING ADMIRABLY. THEN ONTO THE 6 MONTHLY CHECKUP WITH ASH, AND SOME GOOD SOUND ADVICE FOR ME TO TAKE AWAY. ALL IN ALL A GOOD 45 MINUTES SPENT.
