However I didn't make a fuss. My son came out eyes welled clearly in lots of pain so I went to pay for the visit. The dentist came out and explained in front of a young receptionist and other patients in a tiny waiting room that my son had severe gum disease and was likely to lose his teeth in next few years. My son was mortified and embarrassed as a woman waiting raised her eyebrows.. I was angry at the level of confidentiality and lack of professionalism. I paid and grabbed the prescription as the dentist continued to say he needs to see a hygienist asap as the infection is so bad. I left thinking that I had a prescription for antibiotics that would aid the fight of infection while I found him a hygienist the following day. But no... it was for mouthwash that he has been using last few days anyway.
My son was in tears as he has lived on ibrupophen and pain killers for 3 days. So following morning his mouth was filled with blood clots and he was in agony so I got him a doctor's appointment... the doctor said they were surprised he hasn't been given antibiotics with the state his mouth was in.. However the doctor could not prescribe for dental issues.. so he was given stronger pain killers.. today I rang the dental practice in hope to speak to the dentist and hope that he would fax a prescription.. But I was told by a blunt receptionist that no I can't speak with him and would have to go through 111 again... I tried to explain and she became more blunt stating the doctor is not qualified to make a decision and should not of told me he needed antibiotics and to phone 111 she was not interested in listening now I'm left concerned that my son is going to get sepsis due to the fact I know have to wait another 2 days to get him to another emergency dentist.
The whole experience wait this practice was awful so I do not recommend this place unless it was for a simple routine check up or procedure!
Thank you to the dentist that was on yesterday, and thank you to his nurse who held my hand whilst I had the completely painless injection!
Merry Christmas to you both and thank you for fixing my tooth!
Attended during the covid pandemic and all safety precautions adhered to.
Would definitley recommend to others.
Words can't express my sincere thanks to you all at the surgery.
