Patient Testimonials
I finally finished my treatment today and I would like to thank Richard and Bob for their care, profressionalism and understanding during my treatment. From the first day that I attended the surgery I was put at ease and never had any doubt that I was in the care of experts. I can't tell you what a difference this treatment has made for me. Thanks too to your wonderful girls especially Kerry, Danielle and Joanna for the unfailing courtesy and good humour (and, of course, the coffee!). Once again many, many thanks and I wish you all continued success. I'll be back for more some time in the future.

I attended St. Anns Dental Clinic for the first time in May 2007 and was seen by Dr Bob McLelland, as I was in severe pain. I was extremely scared as I had been so traumatised by treatment I had received at my previous dentist. Dr McLelland put me at ease and explained everything , taking timje to ensure that I was completely happy and comfortable at all times. I now have a lovely smile and can eat and drink anything, which I did not think I would ever be able to do again.
Bob - the king of treatment for jaw pain and grinding teeth problems. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Miss M, Jan 2009
Everyone at St. Anns Dental Clinic has been excellent right from walking through the reception door and I have every confidence in my dentist Dr McLelland. Mrs W, 16/01/09
