I was really nervous to see Gulab today, I really don’t know why!? He was great, thorough, professional and very friendly. He offered me some anaesthetic gel prior to treatment but I didn’t need it. My teeth feel and look amazing. Thank you and see you in 6 months. 🩷

I have been with Wensleydale Dental for just over 50 years and most recently (last 10 ish years) with Gulab as my hygienist.Gulab is an excellent hygienist! Supported by Bex. Gulab recently put a replacement crown on a front tooth and did an excellent job.Also, you are able to speak to reception when you call the practice, which is very beneficial.

I visited Jess and Fatima for my hygienist appointment yesterday which I hate having done. They were so kind and reassuring, told me exactly what they were going to do and did it swiftly and expertly. Probably the best hygienist I have ever seen, thank you so much girls.

Jessica has been my hygienist for many years, she and Fatima are simply the best! Their expertise, kindness and consideration cannot be overstated. They make a somewhat potentially uncomfortable experience worthwhile.

I have been a patient at Wensleydale for 25 years. Recently, I had an issue with the service being offered so wrote a complaint letter. Laura dealt with it perfectly. She showed me care, understanding, and treated me professionally. She resolved my issue and booked me in to see Hamza. This was the first time I'd seen this particular dentist. I am a disabled patient and can struggle sometimes to get to the dentists office. He clearly explained the options of treatment for my teeth (within my budget) and I came away knowing exactly what to do next. He showed me care, describing my options at a level I could understand and treated me respectfully. I look forward to seeing him again. Credit should also go to Yulia, his dental assistant who was also caring towards me. Thankyou all so much for your support and understanding. A positive outcome for me.

I chose to have my teeth straightened at Wensleydale using Spark. Ines and Nan were my dentists and they were absolutely fantastic. They were incredibly personal and friendly which made the whole experience great! Ines was really knowledgeable and realistic about what my teeth would look like after treatment while also giving my advice about other dental queries. Nan was so lovely and great to chat to and always bought a smile to my face.Both were gentle with treatments if I had any sensitivity or pain.Overall, I am so glad that I had them through this whole process! Thank you!

I have been a patient with Wensleydale for over 47 years. At 67 I still have my own teeth, a few caps, crowns and fillings. I have witnessed the practice develop. What impresses me most is the adoption of the latest technology. The care has always been second to none. I feel I have a strong relationship with Patrick and Gulab and their assistants. I trust their judgment and try to follow their advice.

Have always had great care at this practice over a period of 20 plus years. Mrs Cornwell is excellent and is supported by a fantastic team. This week I was fitted in on the day as an emergency after losing a crown which I really appreciated.

Graham Wilkinson

09:38 17 Jun 25

We have just been for our 6 month check up once again & I only have praise for the team at Wensleydale. I always see Esther and Nan who are absolutely amazing. Their care and compassion is superb as is their medical knowledge both on dentistry and other areas and how this could impact on teeth and gums and what to do to rectify this. I would absolutely not go anywhere else.

Ryan Swales

07:42 04 Jun 25

Work done by Gulab and Jana and although I understand people can have reservations about the cost, to be able to smile again in a photo with confidence has definitely been worth it. Very informative and talk you through each stage of the process. You only get one set of (adult) teeth so best to invest in them and look after them. Would recommend.

16:17 29 May 25

Victoria has been my family dentist for 20 years and extremely happy with her and Katherine's care and treatment. I have also had a fastbrace fitted, recieving excellent treatment with amazing results. Thank you for a wonderful service.

Viv Phillips

12:09 27 May 25

Always hated the dentist. Fortunately, I was referred to Jennifer and her assistant Steph and I now feel less stressed about a visit.They are a great team and .are you are made to feel at ease. Everything is explained to you which further reduces any anxiety. A great team.

Karolina Wilczynska

10:52 27 May 25

I had a truly outstanding experience at this dental practice. From the moment I walked in, I was made to feel welcome and cared for by a team that is not only professional but also genuinely kind and attentive.A special thank you to Hamza, Maria, Yasmin, Joanna, Yulia, Laura and Dave — each of you contributed to making my visit smooth, comfortable. Your friendliness, clear communication, and expert care were deeply appreciated.

Sarah Singh

17:14 21 May 25

Estha and Nan took such good care of me when I came in with a concern recently. They were very thorough, and I really felt they went above and beyond to put my mind at ease. I have always had good experiences at this practice.

Linda Clarke

15:03 09 May 25

I routinely go to the dentist for general check ups and always feel slightly nervous. I came today for a small amount of treatment and was so impressed with all the staff . Everything was clearly explained to me, I was continually put at ease and reassured. Thank you so much Pedro, Sirjana and all the receptionists.

Nick Harper

07:14 29 Apr 25

My son had two teeth extracted ahead of having braces fitted. Esther and Nan were fantastic, as always, making him comfortable and the whole procedure as pain-free and easy as it could be. Thank you!

Joanne Taylor

09:59 24 Apr 25

I can highly recommend Wensleydale Dental Practice, I always receive excellent care and advice. I would especially like to mention my dental team- Jennifer and Steph, they are always friendly and welcoming- making me feel at ease during my appointment!

Pedro did my root canal and for weeks I was dreading it. He was brilliant. Made sure it was completely numb and talked me through it all. If you are anxious Pedro is your man! He also has a kind way and a good sense of humour. I highly recommend him. I even emailed to say thank you. The reception lady could be nicer to people though! When you are anxious you really need a bit of warmth and friendliness on arrival. She is quite rude.

Mim Grey

14:35 02 Apr 25

Today was my first visit to this dental surgery as my next door neighbour recommended them.I saw Dr Ines Riberio Who has put a new fixed retainer on my top teeth. I have seen many orthodontists in my life and I have to say Ines beats them all in her work, caring attitude and professional work. She didn’t let me leave until I was absolutely comfortable with my bite and the work she had done.Her assistant ‘Nan’ was super welcoming and put me at ease throughout the one hour procedure at a very reasonable cost as I’m a musician and was worried about the expense.Can’t thank them enough and will definitely be returning for any work I need in the future.Mim Grey

I would like to express how Gulab has made me feel in coming along to your dentist.I have a big fear of the dentist but this gentle man helps to make me feel comfortable and not so stressed.He is always so happy and caring and now I feel I wouldn’t go anywhere else.I highly recommend this gentleman.

Kirsty Henly

16:04 25 Mar 25

I always have such a positive experience at this dentist when I visit with my children. We absolutely love Esther and Nan, they are just both so nice, friendly and welcoming. They’re both also really professional and you feel like they are taking really good care of you during your consultation. Thank you Esther and Nan ☺️

This is the first dental practice I have had a good experience with and I highly recommend this place!I have always been nervous and put off going to a dentist after a bad experience many years ago. I am thrilled to say I was very happy with my results and was at ease after my first visit. I was seen by Hamza and Maria, and I am so grateful for them as they really made me feel comfortable and at ease the whole appointment. I also took my 6month old daughter for her first time and they were amazing with us. I even booked my next check up the same day! Highly recommend and very friendly staff!

Richard Martin

20:16 15 Mar 25

I recently had a crown fitted at Wensleydale by Esther, and have to say that she and Nan make a great team! They explained the procedure at each stage in great detail, making me feel completely at ease throughout. The only painful part was the bill at the end, but having been informed of the cost beforehand, I guess I can't really complain!

James Norton

08:10 21 Feb 25

As a rule I dislike going to Dentist get nervous and have avoided going for years. Had to bite the bullet and go and these guys have been amazing especially Jennifer and Steph who go out there way to explain everything and make you feel comfortable.

Carol Mains

18:02 19 Feb 25

My visits with Hamza & Maria :They are so very good at making one at ease before, during & after my appointments.Also ensuring that I was happy with the dental work carried out before I left the dental clinic .I really appreciate the time spent on my teeth & giving me confidence that I did alright during my appointment 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

I've been with this dental practice for over 37 year's and never had a problem with their fantastic service and staff, towards me and my daughter who's been coming here close to 20 year's.Was seen a few days ago by our regular and long standing dentist Marina and her lovely friendly assistant Yulia, who gave us both an excellent service. Regarding the wonderful Marina, if Carlsberg could do dentists, Marina would probably be the best dentist in the world.

Esther and Nan are amazing, I have been unwell and they were very understanding, kind and caring. Lots of top tips going forward, a very positive experience for me, generally I am nervous at the dentist but not on Tuesday. Thank you.

Peter Robertson

Esther and Nan were excellent today. Made sure I understood what was going to happen. Made me feel very confident I was in safe professional hands. Great job on my filling enjoyed the whole process.

My two daughters consulted Mr Gulab Singh, and he provided complete dental care. He addressed all the aspects in a very caring manner. Kids had interventions (filling & extraction), which happened in a smooth manner, purely because of Mr Gulab Singh's exceptional capability of dealing with kids. The nurse (Joanna) was also very friendly and helpful. Thank you for your amazing service.

David Hector

18:21 19 Jul 24

Unfortunately, I've had issues with my teeth over the years but I have found Gulab to be professional, amicable and good at his job. When I've needed an early appointment he's made this possible and his efforts are very much appreciated. Gulab also makes an effort to find out if there's anything I want to tell him about my dental health - or health in general where this matters. Excellent chap and the nurse that assists him is top class. Five stars 🤩

Mark Simlo

11:21 11 Jul 24

Been coming here for 57 years. I've never had any problems with the place. It's a great dentists surgery and if you can get on their books, I'd recommend the place.

Dawn Hamilton

10:46 10 Jul 24

Gulab has been looking after my teeth for the last 5years. He is a great Hygienist who I try to see 3-4 times a year. Really cares about you and the welfare of your teeth and gums. Always come away feeling well looked after.

Julie Jenner

08:18 01 Jul 24

I contacted Wensleydale for a second opinion as I was unhappy with the options (and previous service) provided by my then dentist and was given an appointment with Patrick. This is without doubt the best decision I ever made. Patrick talked me through multiple options, taking the time to explain each one in detail and the cost involved. In February we started the work and last week I got my new bridge which I am so happy with - I can finally eat normally again. Thank you Patrick and Wensleydale, I can't thank you enough. Definitely 5* all round.

Alex Ng

10:07 18 Jun 24

I have been going to Wensleydale for 25 years and have never had a complaint. I was seen today for a hygienist appointment by Gulab and Jana and their service was exemplary - Gulab is extremely thorough and his advice is super informative and helpful. The staff in general are always professional and helpful, and the practice itself is welcoming and kept very clean.

Joanna Miller

06:23 16 May 24

I'm never going to be happy about seeing a dentist and being told I needed 2 fillings by Mrs Z was pretty terrifying. But Gulab and Jana were able to fit me in immediately so I didn't have to spend any time worrying about it, and although I was a nervous wreck he was very kind and patient with me, so many thanks for making my experience painless.

I can personally highly recommend Wensleydale Dental Practice. I have always been nervous of dental treatment but they have turned that around! I see Jennifer and Steph and they are such a great team - they always put me at ease, very patient and calming and nothing is too much trouble for them. They explain things thoroughly and answer any questions patiently. I recently had root canal treatment and I had no need to be nervous at all - they were so kind, caring and professional. I never would have thought I could have coped with the idea of root canal but with these lovely ladies it was a breeze! They have turned me into being really proactive and positive to my dental needs (rather than waiting until something needs doing) because I know there’s nothing to worry about and no need to be nervous. My whole family are signed up with them now! I highly recommend both the dental practice and Jennifer and Steph - I would never go anywhere else!

Julie Jones

I have been attending Wensleydsle Dental Practice for several years and see Jenifer and Steph, they always make me feel at ease and explain everything in a way that’s easy to understand, nothing is too much trouble and I appreciate being given appointments sometimes at short notice!Thanks to you both, you are excellent dental practitioners.Julie Jones

A visit to the dentist is not always the most appealing of activities but Dr Pedro and Karen have striven to bring calmness, humour and great skills to my appointments. A great team providing a high calibre service and positive outcomes over several years.

Jessie Lyness

06:10 14 Apr 24

I have recommended this dentist to all my family. Amun and her wonderful assistant Nan have both made me feel so at ease after being a very nervous patient. They both take so much time to make sure I am comfortable and understanding what needs to be done. They both make sure I am happy throughout my visit. I will continue to recommend them to anyone who needs a new dentist!!

Annie Parkes

16:50 10 Apr 24

Amun is a very accomplished and knowledgable young dentist. She uses the most up-to-date technology but also explains everything in an 'easy to understand' way. I feel very safe in her hands. She is most ably assisted by her very experienced Dental Assistant Nan. We all had very happy, often colourful interactions. I am delighted to have found this first class dental surgery.

Been with Wensleydale since I moved down here in 05. Amundeep has been great and offers good advise in looking after my teeth. Both her and her nurse are very welcoming!

07:57 28 Mar 24

I have been with Wensleydale for over 30 years. I have always had excellent service from everyone involved and my teeth have benefited from the care I’ve received. I have recently seen my hygienist, Anna who is very good and thorough and is aware of the problem I have with sensitive teeth. She treats me in a way to reduce my discomfort. A few days later I saw Patrick and his dental nurse, Jo because Anna had spotted something she wasn’t happy about. Patrick put it right immediately. My teeth are in very good condition and I have the staff at Wensleydale to thank for that. Over the years many years I’ve used this practice I have always been happy with my treatment.

I've only been a couple of times but this dentist is already a thousand times better than my last one. Pedro and Kirsty are lovely. Its so nice to go to a dentist who is passionate and happy at their job.

Janet Georgiou

18:30 21 Mar 24

Both Anna and Kirsty are exemplary!! They are professional, knowledgeable, polite and friendly at the same time. Putting me at ease and informing me about everything that was being done. Can’t praise them enough.

Mary Blackhurst Hill

16:32 19 Mar 24

Pedro and Kirsty are a great team and make going to the dentist an absolute pleasure. Pedro is always cheerful, professional, and positive. Any work is done quickly and painlessly, so one's smile can be as bright as his! ;)

As a child back in the 1950’s I had a number of bad experience’s and because of them I had not visited a dentist for yearsI first nervously walked into this surgery some 8 years ago with a raging toothache so I had no choice. My teeth were a mess. Fast forward 8 years my teeth and gums are healthy and my fear is a distant memory thanks to the wonderful care given by my superb dentist/ dental therapist and there whole support team. They deserve more than 5 stars and I can’t recommend them highly enough

Sue Moore

17:32 13 Mar 24

Professional, friendly, kind and efficient service always. I telephoned yesterday for an emergency appointment and was given one for today. Marina, and her assistant, Yulia, greeted me warmly and the problem of great sensitivity in one of my teeth was quickly dealt with, thank goodness. I am so very grateful as I could not previously eat or drink on that side of my mouth. The effect of the injection has nearly gone now, so I am looking forward to normal eating and drinking. Thank you very much.

Sweet Wrappers

20:10 12 Mar 24

Five Stars. For an anxious patient it’s so much better when you have full confidence in and trust your dentist. Today was another comfortable experience for my children and I at our check-ups, under the exceptional care and manner of Mrs Zachrisson and her nurse Yulia.The hard-working reception team too deserves a mention - this is clearly a busy and popular practice, but the front desk staff are always friendly and polite and in my experience always follow-up with phone calls when they say they will.If you're looking for a practice that prioritises patient experience and also combines the latest techniques and dentistry skills with friendly professionalism and care, I cannot recommend Wensleydale Dental Practice enough.“Relax”, said Yulia at my appointment today - and I did. Thank you.

Joanna Brialey

13:45 12 Mar 24

I have had Marina take care of my teeth for a number of years now and have always been impressed with the service I receive . I went in for a check up and polish today . With the helpOf her lovely dental nurse Yulia ,they did a great job of making me feel at ease and sparkly teeth as a result . I trust Marina implicitly and simply wouldn’t go anywhere else .

I phoned up and asked for a retainer to be made on Thursday last week, as my one had cracked due to natural wear and tear. The receptionist said they would get back to me which they never did. I phoned again on Monday after the weekend to get a very vague response. Tuesday I was a little luckier and I spoke to a dental technician called Helen a seemingly more experienced member of staff - my patience wearing thin at this point due to me boarding a flight this evening (currently writing this in the airport lounge). If it wasn’t for her I think I’d still be going round in circles. Seems that the receptionists don’t seem to care, and don’t seem to relay information to the customer. Receptionists seem clueless - I accept this statement is very rude but it’s a sad truth for an otherwise good practice. A shame as I have been using this practice since my first ever check up. Not a good reflection of the hard work the zachrissons put into this establishment.

Steve Roberts

12:27 08 Feb 24

I had an Hygienist appointment with Anna Krysniak - at 10:00.I was really impressed by the care and professional approach that Anna has. I have always avoided visiting a Hygenist in the past because the experience has not always been a good one. Today I can honestly say was the best Hygienist appointment and treatment I have ever experienced. A Gentle and professional approach with very good easy to understand, practical advice as to how I should care for my dental hygiene going forwards has changed my mind about visiting a Hygienist in the future. Very happy with todays appointment.

Victoria has been my dentist for a number of years. I followed her and Catherine from Peterborough and wouldn’t go to anyone else. They are so kind and patient and go over and beyond to make you comfortable. I’ve recently had a root canal and I can honestly say I didn’t feel a thing. Victoria knows I get claustrophobic and she was so patient with me. Catherine was on hand with the stress ball. Thank you ladies xx

Bex

19:28 08 Mar 23

Friendly and knowledgeable dentists. Very patient if you have a fear of dentists, anxiety or any sensory issues. They always listen to me, explain everything clearly, and are super friendly and patient with children. I'm really pleased we found such a great dental practice.

I had to visit here as an emergency today after my back tooth broke. The whole team are extremely efficient and the dentist was very professional and compassionate when she found out how nervous I was. She did an excellent job at removing my tooth and getting me out of pain. Can’t thank them enough.

I have registered with Wensleydale Dental Practice few years ago and been unable to find any place that can match them in regards to the quality of service provided. Yes, they are just people and recently charged me twice for the same service, but with no issues I got a refund. Let's be honest, we all make mistakes. The best example of the quality of service is my friend who by two different dentist was told that she needs to remove tooth or even two in an effort to cure the infection.On my strong recommendation she visited the Wensleydale Dental Practice. Few years down the line I remember only bits and pieces. One thing is that after hygienist visit she bled like crazy and was complaining about it. Funny enough, just 2 more visits and control one... guess what. Infection was cured and she didn't remove a single tooth.I would not call them perfect but to be honest I would not trust a different dentist. It is an hour drive for me to get there, but for more than 10 years no one else could match their service... and I did try the best places based on Google reviews.Highly recommended.

I have found Wensleydale practice very helpful and friendly. The children and I all regularly attend to see Charlotte.Charlotte is always very friendly and helps the children feel relaxed and at ease.When my youngest child took a nasty fall and banged his jaw/tooth, the receptionist staff were fantastic and got him seen straight away. We obviously could not see our regular dentist, but the dentist we saw was brilliant and helped reassure my son and me.5 stars from me

Amazing staff who make you feel safe and comfortable. Would rate this practice 5* for politeness and being professional.

Amazing bunch of staff.
