‘Dear Mr Kotecha,

I am writing to inform you I will no longer be attending your dental practice as I have been re-located with work at short notice and so travelling to the surgery would now be unpractical.

I would like to say however, I have found your practice extremely helpful, friendly and without sounding too cheesy you’ve made dentists appointments a lot more bearable.

Again I would like to thank you for your services’

Yours faithfully

Mrs. CT, New Duston, Northampton

‘Dear Lina,

As you know I had not visited a dentist in over 8 years.  Because my experiences of dentists in the past had been quite bad, my teeth were not in good shape at all, with lost fillings, broken and chipped teeth nearly down to my gums.  I had gaps which stopped me from smiling properly, always covering my mouth with my hand or looking away. I knew I needed extensive work doing.

My sister, who lives near to your practice, is a patient of yours and recommended I try you saying that you would not take out my teeth, unless it was absolutely the last resort and you were sympathetic to one suffering from such a fear of the dentists.

So I decided to travel the 26 miles to see you for my first check up in years.  On that first visit and examination I was so, so nervous.  I heard things like, root canals: have to remove nerves, crowns and bridges which filled me with absolute horror especially as one of my biggest dreads was having to have injections to start these procedures with, I hated injections!

After 10 visits to you my teeth look really good now I want to thank you very much, not only for saving all my teeth and giving me a confident smile, (I do not have any gaps now) but also for the time you took in making sure I was fully aware of what you intended to do by explaining every procedure and what to expect during each treatment.

It gave me so much confidence.  You put me at ease from the very first visit and I continued to feel relaxed right the way through all the treatments. You have taken every fear of going to the dentist away, I can honestly say you did not hurt me once during the whole treatment, and I didn’t even feel the injections!

You are a wonderful dentist with a lovely calming disposition and I would not hesitate in recommending you at all and in fact I have already been recommending you to my friends and other relatives, and will continue to do so.  If anyone would like to ask me personally about my treatments I would be more than happy to speak with them. Once again thank you very much for all that you have done and see you in six months!!!!

Yours sincerely

Mrs. PD, Daventry, Northampton

‘Dear Shrik & staff,

I am writing this letter purely to thank you and your staff for the excellent treatment I received, also for the way you managed to make me relax and loose my fear of dentists.

I think that happened because of my trust in your abilities, once again many thanks and look forward to seeing you all at my next 6 months appointment.’

Yours Sincerely

Mr. JB, Oadby, Leicester

‘I was very anxious about having to visit the dentist.  I hadn’t been for so long but was immediately put at ease by the receptionist who was so friendly and took my mind off the treatment.

Shrikesh is a fantastic dentist, hard to find these days, highly recommended, professional and friendly family dentist – something I look forward too!’
