Alvechurch Dental Practice

★☆☆☆☆

Not good

Not good. I’ve been with them since 2016. Difficult to get an appointment. They don’t Answer the phone. I was told I won't on their books because I hadn’t attend for over 2 years- there was a note on the door saying they were shut for training when I had an appointment a couple of years ago. The latest dentist very Young said she hasn’t read my notes and why had I come - obviously for my routine check up. Then told me I needed 3 fillings - which means my teeth deteriorate within a year. I visited last year for sensitive teeth and have a problem with grinding and receding gum line. This new dentist didn’t comment on there. I’ve been to another dentist who suggested I just have staining on my teeth no mention of fillings. Dental practices seem to only focus on money making schemes these days and it’s very expensive. Need treatment on the NHS.

Right to Reply

As part of our commitment to providing an honest and transparent view of health and social care services, Healthwatch Birmingham & Solihull encourages providers to respond to comments the public have left.

Alongside ensuring providers can have a fair say in discussions about their services, replying to reviews demonstrates evidence of responding to patient feedback for the CQC, who regularly monitor our Feedback Centre. It is also an effective way to recruit service users for any wider engagement work at your organisation.

Guidelines for provider responses:

  • Keep language appropriate and civil
  • Remain professional and treat people's comments fairly
  • Engage with the content of the review by addressing specific points and avoid cut and pasting a standard response
  • Don't disclose the service user's personal details or any potentially identifying information
  • Where appropriate leave organisational contact details e.g PALS or patient engagement teams for people to get further information

Remember: your response will be seen by everyone who uses the Feedback Centre, not just the original reviewer. All responses are moderated in accordance with our moderation policy.

For full terms and conditions, including a guide to how right to reply works for service providers download this guide.
