They kicked me to the curb after paying a lot of money. They don't seem to care about patients as much as other places I have been.

I've been going to this dentist for many years. Today I had a tooth out and almost cried, not because they did a bad job, because I'm a 37 Yr old wuss.
Dr Caro is a genius, a gentleman and a easily the best dentist in the area. All his staff are a class act too. I hope he never retires.

Highly recommend this place to anybody with severe anxieties and fears of the dentist! They are kind, gentle, sympathetic and put you at ease and comfort and reassure you throughout your appointment. They go above and beyond! Finally a dentist I trust!

I would highly recommend Bispham Dental Practice. Dr Virdee is an exceptional dentist. I was a nervous when I walked through the door and when I left I confidently booked myself in for another filling. I've been let down by so many dentists in the past, but not by this one. This one took time and care, extra care. Lovely experience. 5*
