 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would like to express my most sincere and heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Marcela and to the entire team at Queens Gate Dental Practice for the exceptional care my daughter, Izadora, received. I was in a state of deep distress when we arrived, and from the very first moment we were welcomed with kindness, calm, and compassion. Dr. Marcela’s presence, sensitivity, and professionalism made all the difference during such a difficult time for us. After having gone through extremely challenging experiences in the past, being cared for at Queens Gate Dental Practice truly felt like finding a safe place. Dr. Marcela treated my daughter with so much gentleness and love, and spoke to me with patience and respect, helping us regain the peace and reassurance we desperately needed. This was not just dental care, it was genuine human care. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Marcela and to the clinic for such an outstanding level of professionalism, warmth, and empathy. I truly believe she is an exceptional and enlightened professional, and the clinic reflects those same values. Thank you, Dr. Marcela, and thank you to Queens Gate Dental Practice, for taking such loving care of my daughter and of me. We will never forget this experience. ✨🤍

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Mr Patel – very professional and kind. The reception team is also incredibly friendly and responsive, which really helps when you’re in pain or stressed. I had an erupted wisdom tooth and while the NHS would have taken weeks/months to get it sorted, Mr Patel’s team was empathetic and quick to help. Pricing was reasonable, and they even gave me a phone number to call in case I had any problems or concerns afterwards. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve just completed my treatment plan with Dr Fern and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the entire team was incredibly responsive and consistently flexible in accommodating my schedule and individual needs. The treatment itself was highly effective thanks in large part to Dr Ferns’ meticulous attention to detail and clear commitment to delivering the best possible outcome. What really stood out was the atmosphere at the practice. All the staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making each visit comfortable and positive. They’ve managed to turn something most people dread - going to the dentist into an experience that’s both enjoyable and entirely focused on your personal goals. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just completed my Invisalign treatment with Dr Fern. She was so wonderful, always so pleasant. She has a lot of experience and is very detail oriented. She really wanted to make sure that I was very happy with my end result. She truly looked after me every step of the way. Her team is also great and super friendly and knowledgeable. The entire practice is extremely professional. I also see Neil for regular dentistry (as well as my children). We could not be happier with all of the professionals at Queens Gate Dental!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After two visits (dental examination and hygienist), I can confirm that Dr. Laura Sadone is a very professional and kind dentist. She communicates clearly about what she is doing and why. I recommend her, especially if you are looking for a French-speaking dentist.
