Comments included, “I am more than happy with the personal attention,” and “Sturridge, Capp Barrett are quick to action any issue I have dentally, they operate efficiently and effectively.The dentist has an incredibly approachable bedside manner and is thorough in explaining all of the works [the partner dentist] advises individually. The staff, from receptionists to hygienists, are all incredibly polite and helpful. I feel thoroughly looked after whenever I visit.” Patients commented positively about the standards of cleanliness.
