Hughes and Owen in Swadlincote are a fantastic dentist. If youre like me you may not like going to the dentist , but at H&O all the staff from reception, hygienists, dental nurses and dentists alike are super-friendly.
Whats more, is they are highly professional and a very capable high performance team. All the staff work collaboratively and gel together.
H&O in Swadlincote is a brilliant dentist practice. I highly recommend them.
Clare Watson is my dentist and she is awesome and so highly skilled too.

Worst service I have ever experienced from a customer facing receptionist. I became a Charles & Owen customer when I first moved to the area several years ago and left them for the exact same reason. Their reception staff (Linda in particular) need training on how to speak to customers. She was rude, uninterested in my call and when I asked to… speak to Mrs Owen (my actual dentist) she said I can’t and will need to speak to the practice manager instead. I have been paying a monthly practice plan, missed an appointment when I was on holiday in Brasil, which I maintain I never made

We have been with Hughes & Owen at Swadlincote for several years now and have always found all the staff to be friendly and helpful, especially our dentist Mark. I had a broken tooth fixed by him today and the whole process from calling this morning to book the appointment, to having the tooth fixed was stress free and painless, cannot thank them enough, excellent service throughout.
