Ratings on other sites

Recorded with source, scale, count and the date read. These are not our own ratings.

Strengths

  • The practice publishes a full private fee list with NHS charge bands and monthly plan prices, so you can see costs before you book [3].

  • Its CQC inspection of 4 February 2016, published 18 March 2016, found care meeting the regulations in all five areas checked [6].

  • The team page names the Malinslee principal dentist with a published GDC number you can look up on the GDC register [4].

Limitations

  • Registration rests on site-published GDC numbers [4].

  • No insurance or guarantee wording is published on the site, so that category holds no score [1].

  • The site claims 25+ years, which runs beyond the 2009 company record, so history is scored from the company date [1][7].
