Your Trusted Dental Care Partner in Cheltenham
Established in 1998, Hilltop Dental Practice was founded by Robert and Gillian Swinson following their relocation to Cheltenham. The practice began in a characterful Edwardian house on Tommy Taylors Lane, where the family initially lived above the clinic. Over time, the practice expanded to occupy the entire building, introducing dedicated spaces including a downstairs surgery and modern facilities. Our team prioritises patient-centred care, fostering long-term relationships with individuals who often remain with us for many years. We offer comprehensive dental services ranging from routine maintenance to advanced treatments like implants and orthodontics.

Our hygienists provide direct appointments for gum care, while our dentists deliver both restorative and cosmetic solutions. We maintain a hospitable environment, ensuring patients feel comfortable and valued throughout their visits. Emergency dental care is available outside standard hours, with dedicated contact information provided for urgent cases. Our opening hours are structured to accommodate most patients, operating Monday to Friday with extended weekday hours. Located in Cheltenham, we serve both local residents and surrounding areas, maintaining a reputation for reliable, high-quality dental care.

I am always very anxious at the dentist but Dr Patrick Greer did an amazing job at making me feel comfortable and anxiety free! The receptionists and dental nurses are kind and gentle and have taken years of dental fears away. In fact the professionalism and friendliness of the whole team is outstanding and I have been beyond pleased with the excellent care I have received at Hilltop Dental Practice.

Appalling... rude receptionists and disinterested dentists, the clues in the title guys... you're a public service. Thier dental nurse was the only redeeming feature.

The hygienist is brilliant and so is the polish woman who works with her. The dentist, not so much. Patrick i think the name is, spoke to me in the most condescending way I've ever heard regarding the fact I brought up they were trying to take double the money from me firstly for a manual clean then a machine one when they could easily have used the machines. It's one of those places that have allowed covid to dictate absolutely everything - that was the reason for doing a manual clean - give me a break. They also refused to let me in maskless even though I'm exempt and the whole experience is

Today Robert gave me my smile back. I cannot thank him or his exceptional staff enough, the three procedures were long but pain free, conducted in a most professional and hygienic way. The result will make me happy every day, and give me more confidence, thank you.
