About us

Most people are a little nervous about a first visit anywhere since they are entering new surroundings and meeting new people. However, at Oakmead, you are welcomed by a dedicated member of the team in calm, contemporary surroundings.

Your first appointment will be relaxed and informative. We discuss your previous dental experiences and conduct a thorough examination. We like to learn about you so that we can provide care that is a real contribution to the quality of your life. There is plenty of time to ask questions and discuss your treatment options, whether health-related, cosmetic or both. Together, we will formulate a treatment plan and only proceed when you are happy.

We believe in a team approach, and each member of our team is dedicated to patient care, comfort and knowledge. We work hard to listen to your needs, respond to your concerns and provide for your comfort and safety every time that you visit us. The important thing to note is that treatment progresses at your own pace so that it is comfortably within your own timetable and budget.

Your Dental Health at Oakmead

At Oakmead, we recognise the importance of good communication. We make sure that you are fully involved and able to make an informed decision with regard to your treatment options. Gone are the days when a dentist pronounced a verdict on your teeth after a cursory examination. We offer a variety of treatments depending on your needs, and one of our team of dentists will be happy to discuss this with you and answer your questions.

Lovely to meet my new dentist and his assistant today. Good experience, felt looked after and it is obvious that they care about people. Well done!

My first visit to a hygienist. Pondi was very professional and my teeth and gums were given an extremely thorough descale and clean. My mouth felt a lot better when I got home.

GBT treatment is like a gentle therapy with maximum results and very comfortable. Thanks to Karin for explaining the process and at home tips to keep teeth healthy.

Visited the hygienist today and had the new Swiss cleaning treatment which was a far more comfortable experience than the previous treatments. Definitely the way to go.

Soraia Spina

Dr. Samir Patel and his dental nurse were extremely professional, kind, and attentive throughout my visit. They made me feel comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend Dr. Patel to anyone looking for excellent dental care!

Excellent service from end to end. Used the latest hygienist ‘spa’ treatment from Karen and really impressed with the results. Great clean and far less intrusive than previous methods..

Karen (hygienist) is excellent. I have been a long standing patient at the practice and would thoroughly recommend booking an appointment with Karen. She is always thorough and explains everything clearly and gives brilliant proactive advice. The new GBT airflow polish process was really good, very impressed. Dominic

Connor is an excellent dentist, down to earth, friendly & professional. He is also fabulous with patients who suffer with anxiety

Mandy

My first time with Karen, a hygienist and I felt comfortable from the beginning. She began by asking me questions and used the answers to plan her method of carrying out her procedure. The treatment was thorough. At the end of the cleaning, Karen relayed her concerns and what I could do within my dental care routine to improve things especially in certain areas. Excellent.

Chris Pearman

I’ve been going to Oakmead for around 13-14 years and the care and attention has always been superb. I was a little apprehensive today as in my head I was stepping back to day 1, the dentist is been with for pretty much all of that time had retired which meant new dentist day. I needn’t have worried as I saw Anum who was excellent and whilst I was only booked in for a regular examination managed to squeeze in a necessary filling into the booking. As always everybody at oakmead puts patient care at the forefront and any worries or nervousness quickly floats away. Would thoroughly recommend them.

Stephen Pope

Had my first visit to oakmead today and I now have my faith restored in dentists. Samir was amazing and very professional, he explained everything in detail to me and left me feeling very reassured. The staff on the reception were also amazing, thanks to you all.

Karen Gover

Very friendly and efficient. First point of contact are the reception staff who are all very happy and make you feel at ease. Karen, my hygienist, is gentle but thorough. I followed my dentist, Samir, when he moved from my previous practice. I cannot recommend him enough, he is professional, cheerful and friendly. He never tries to upsell, just does a very good job on what needs to be done.
