"First Class Emergency Dental Care"

I had tremendous pain in my teeth, face and jaw. I rang 111 who after a telephone consultation asked someone else to call me back with an appointment for East Surrey Hospital Emergency Dental Department. The appointment was within the next hour. I arrived, registered by very efficient receptionist and was seen on time. The dentist and assistant were totally professional, efficient and caring. The room was extremely clean. Despite being in tremendous pain I immediately felt at ease and confident in the knowledge that they could help me. Within a few minute they had diagnosed a large dental abscess. I was given full instructions on what to do in the next few days and antibiotics were prescribed, which I collected from the Boots Pharmacy in the hospital. I cannot thank everyone involved enough, such a smooth process: from the initial 111 call, to the receipt of prescribed medication. This was first class treatment by the NHS. Thank you very much indeed.
