"Emergency appointment"

About: Perth and Kinross Health & Social Care Partnership / Public Dental Service (Tayside)

(as a service user),

I started to get toothache and swelling but being so scared of the dentist I ignored the is for a few days until it got to the point where I had to call. I phoned broxden and got an emergency appointment with a 5th year dental student. Her and the dental nurse could not have been nicer to me. They were so kind and explained everything, even wiped my tears as I was so scared. The treatment all went so smoothly and I didn’t feel a thing

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback especially after such a difficult appointment for you. I am pleased the student and staff were able to help and reassure you. I hope you are feeling better now.
