"The Dentist from HELL"

First of all, I never write reviews. I own my own business and know how it can impact. However I could not sit back and let this lie.

My husband got an emergency appointment to see the dentist after being in pain for a couple of days then calling the NHS 111 service.

The Dentist we saw on Sun 1st Feb at 6pm at St Johns Health Centre, Halifax was the WORST Dentist you could possibly meet in your life. He gave the same diagnosis to the two people before us - you either need a root canal filling (which cannot be done today) or we take the tooth out which can be done right now.

He took an X-ray but didn’t look at it before giving the diagnosis. My husband was five seconds to decide if he wanted the whole tooth out or a “prescription” for antibiotics!!! He doesn’t have a infection - he has a tooth that needs a basic filling and this dentist wouldn’t do it!!

The poorly Dentist helper was super kind and lovely - how she works with this awful man - I have no idea.

Anyway - if you are thinking of going here - call 111 back and get transferred to Huddersfield rather then Halifax.
