Chester Smiles Reviews

Always late, every appointment is at least thirty minutes later than the time you turn up. I have previously been asked to arrive ten minutes early (which I did) and then waited for over an hour before being seen. Probably the poorest timekeeping I have ever known. I have adjusted this review from 1 star to 2 on the basis that I felt 1 star was unfair as I quite like the dentist, she is nice and I can’t complain about the work she’s done on my teeth.. but time keeping is one of my pet hates....

Just seen Dr Hajra Hareef with nurse Isra and I couldn't be more ecstatic with the work I had done! Very polite, easy to talk to and attention to detail was amazing. Would be more than happy to see this pair again to get anymore work done!

This is a great little dentist. which I've been using, for the last 15 years. Tucked away in a little side street, in the heart of Chester. It has very friendly, and professional staff, who are always super helpful. I used to fear, going to the dentist. But not after I found this great little practice. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.... (Show more)

Response from the owner2 years ago

Absolutely disgusting service. No customer service at all, I've been chasing an extraction for my 15 year old niece to have teeth removed so she can have her braces fitted since December. I've had to push her braces back 3 times due to the negligence from this clinic to now be told that the dentist doesn't feel confident doing the extraction but I can pay privately to have them removed at one of their other clinics! She is a 15 year old child under the NHS. Absolutely joke!!!!!!!... (Show more)

Phoned them to book an appointment only to be told that I am not registered with them any more, would it be nice to at least let me know before removing me?

Dan M Garces - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

DISGUSTING PLACE AND PEOPLE STAY AWAY, not fit for practice. lucas was only decent dentist there and now he's gone it's gone absolutely disgusting to the point I had to get my doctor to help me in the end, the staff are just rude, they will do absolutely nothing to help even when u have an infection and are in pain u still have to fight for them to help. Worse dentist ever in chester.... (Show more)

Unbelievably poor service. Booked a check up appointment (which took me 23 calls to get through) I was told that the clinic charged me incorrectly for a retainer I had 18months before, management was due to call me, I am still waiting for that call. Everyone there is rude, unhelpful and quite clearly do not care. They also tried to sell me Invisalign's, I had braces as a child. DO NOT GO HERE.... (Show more)

another £70 down the drain, they charge you £70 to say you need a tooth out then tell you they can do it a dentist who cant extract a tooth really im not joking they can take £70 off you again, but cant extract a tooth. You could not make it up i wish i was but im not im also in agony looking for a real dentist

Reception staff polite and helpful dentist quick and professional some other dentists should take note of this excellent surgery as a example of a public service at its best.

Twice this year I have arrived for pre booked appointments with a 4yo and a baby to find the surgery closed to patients. I have submitted a complaint but had no response.
