"I would like to say a big thank you to Matthew who has restored my faith in dentistry.  My son was extremely anxious, after being put off years ago.  However, Matthew is very sympathetic and understanding and has a professional, gentle nature that my son has warmed to

He is no longer nervous and totally at ease.  I'd also like to say the receptionist, Kerrie us very welcoming, friendly and helpful"

Mrs GR (Highcliffe,  21 January 2019)

I was given a fascinating lecture by the dentist, Matthew and his assistant, Carly.  He explained every part of the ongoing treatment which then removed all fear and unnecessary worry - Wonderful!"

Mr AM (Highcliffe 19 September 2017)

"Not usually being the one to write a Testimonial, I felt the need to give praise to Matt, Hoburne's new dentist and Carly, his Dental Nurse.  Following on from my visit to the practice this morning I felt well informed and was left feeling very happy with the treatment.  Having, in the past experiences a degree of anxiety while visiting the dentist, Matt made me feel very much at ease through his friendly manner.  Matt was also very honest with regards to any issues or future care I may need, of which all the options were dicussed and explained.  This visit has left me feeling far more confident for future appointments at such a friendly and helpful dental practice.  Thank you Matt and Carly."

"I am very happy with the work Mr Willy has done on my front teeth.  They look so much better now.  I can smile with confidence more."

Mrs HM (Christchurch 14 August 2017)

"I was very nervous as I had not been back for a number of years.  The dentist and Carly immediately put me at ease with their kindness and understanding.  I could not have wished for a better experience.  Everyone inspired me with confidence. I cannot praise you all enough.  

Thank you. 

Mr AR (Highcliffe 24 April 2017)

"I just wanted to write this to say how grateful I am for all the support I received coming into the Hoburne Surgery for the 1st time in a long time last week. It has taken too long for me to take the step to get some help and I am very happy that I came to your surgery. 

My son, aged over 25! had not been to the dentist for some time and came initially as an emergency patient.  Due to past experiences he was a nervous patient, and the prospect of 4 wisdom teeth out was quite a challenge.  Several months, and 5 appointments later, he is a very relieved and happy young man. The outcome exceeded all my and his expectations.  Professionalism, care, attention, understanding, and THANK YOU!!"

Mrs SD (Bournemouth, 29 Jun 2015)

"I was somewhat (not exceptionally) nervous; the pleasant atmosphere in the clinic contributed in no small way to my feeling of confidence. The treatment was sensitive and caring and made me feel relaxed and confident. Thank you Jonathan."

Mrs SBM (Highcliffe, 21 May 2014)

" Following many years of visiting the practice, the Receptionist, Hygienists, Dentists and Nurses are always friendly, helpful and put you at ease."

Mr MG (Bournemouth, 29 April 2014)

" Having had a very bad experience at another practice I cannot praise enough the care and understanding that I have received since attending Hoburne. I am no longer a nervous patient thanks to Sharon, Michael and Pete's care."

Mrs JC (Milford on Sea, 15 February 2014)

" There was a welcoming atmosphere on arrival at the surgery. Everything was very informal and friendly.

Excellent dental treatment for a condition not resolved by a previous dentist at another practice. I received professional care during my treatment. "

Mrs PF (Brockenhurst, 22 February 2014) 

"Very professional, as a very nervous patient. I cannot fault my treatment – I would not want to go elsewhere."

Mrs PW (Highcliffe, 8 March 2013)

‘Staff very friendly on first name terms ‘

‘So relaxing’

‘Fast service –and very helpful’

Mr GL (Bournemouth, 21 February 2013)

‘My Mum is 91 and lives in a care home. Visiting the dentist is quite a challenge as she is not very mobile. However, she has always received excellent care and attention and sailed through root canal work. At her age this level of care is very important and vital. I am glad we have found it.‘

Mrs EH, (Christchurch, 5 April 2013)

‘Dear Peter,

Now that my lengthy spell of dental treatment at your practice has come to an end I felt that I must write to you to express my delight at the treatment and service I have received.

I am so grateful to Chris for setting me on the right track and I much appreciate the way you continued to take over my treatment. You both carry out your work in a very professional, but relaxed way which helped me through what could have been a stressful time.

I am so pleased with the results that I cannot stop smiling. I would also like to compliment the reception staff who positively add to the pleasant and cheerful atmosphere which runs through your practice. ‘

Mrs MM (Salisbury, 5 April 2013)

I have a dreadful phobia of the dentist. I last attended twenty years ago. A friend told me about Hoburne practice’s dental anxiety service. Together we planned how I could undergo treatment. It has helped me so much and I am on my way to having beautiful teeth

CW, (New Milton, 26 April 2013)

The outcome exceeded all my and his expectations.  Professionalism, care, attention, understanding, and THANK YOU!!" 

Mrs SD, (Bournemouth, 29 June 2015)

I made an appointment as I discovered that you dealt with nervous patients.  I had lost my confidence following a stroke over three years ago and was reluctant to go to a dentist.  The reception staff were very kind and I was helped into the surgery by the dental assistant. I was still feeling anxious, but as the door opened the dentist, namely Matthew Leadbitter, gave me such a beaming smile and asked me what I would like to be called. This put me at ease, as did his reassuring enquiries. He was so kind and gentle that I felt I had known him for a very long time. After the check up he told me very clearly what treatment I needed. I have since been back four times and Matthew made me feel at ease on each occasion before starting the treatment. I can thoroughly recommend the Hoburne Dental Practice and would not go elsewhere. I would like to thank Matthew and his assistant Carly for helping me over my anxiety.

Mrs MB (New Milton,  8 January 2019)

If going to a dentist could be classed as a pleasure, all at Hoburne really do achieve this.  The reception team, especially Carly, Joey, Kelly, Alistair and Andrea are really fantastic at their various specialties". 

Mrs DH  (Burton,  15 November 2018)

"Over three and a half years I have had major dental treatment done by Mr Willy.  I've trusted him and his team every step of the way.  He and his team have not only advised me on the medical aspects, but also on the financial side of the treatment.  Their honesty, work ethic, and professionalism have helped me go through all the steps, reassured that I've made the best possible choice joining Hoburne Practice". 

Mrs FC  (Ferndown,  13 September 2017)

"I was a nervous patient and after a bad experience at my previous dentist, I needed some emergency treatment.  The dentist and Carly have been so supportive and caring.  Truly professional in every way!". 

Mrs HS  (Christchurch,  3 August 2017)

"Professional, relaxed atmosphere from all staff at Hoburne.  Never a worry about any treatment I have had and always great results.  I do recommend to anyone".

Mr RD  (Chandlers Ford, 7 April 2017)

"As an 86 years old and long time patient of this practice, just had my second front bridge fitted to maintain my open “smile” without the need for dentures etc. Jonathan Gollings is in my view, a credit to his profession, with his eye for detail in the match and fit in carrying out this intricate work. Must also mention the caring and sensitive assistance from Jo his dedicated Dental Nurse who quickly has to hand the required materials and equipment etc.to ease and comfort my time in the “chair”. 

Mr DL  (Bournemouth 12 April 2017)

"How lucky I was to stumble upon this fabulous practice.  A highly skilled and well trained team have put me back together again - a special thanks to Peter and Andrea for the amazing job they have done - crowns, implants, composites, a complete rebuild! I unreservedly recommend........"

Mrs MH  (Tiptoe, Lymington, 2nd November 2015)

"My old teeth were given a face lift and a new lease of life and I couldn't be more pleased.  Mrs Johnson is a very kind, gentle and excellent dentist.  I cannot thank her enough for all the help and care she has given me."

Mrs JH  (Barton on Sea, 23rd June 2015)

"I have always been a nervous patient since childhood and let my dental treatment lapse and felt very uneasy about going to the dentist even for a check up. It was obvious I needed a lot of work done. The thought was awful but I discussed sedation with my dentist and he reassured me, giving me confidence to come along. On the day of my treatment I was still nervous but you and the doctor that had come to carry out the sedation, really put me at ease. I can’t thank you enough for that, and although I must return to complete the treatment, I am no longer dreading it."

Mrs FC (Boscombe, 31st January 2015)

"I have just visited your practice as a new patient and would like to say what a fantastic experience it was (actually looking forward to my next visit). I have never been offered Tea /Coffee in a dental practice nor met such lovely staff. For the first time ever a trip to the dentist has been enjoyable ...Thank you."

Mrs JS (Burton, 19th September 2014)

"I was a very nervous patient and hadn't visited a dentist for many years. The dentist and the Dental Nurse were wonderful and the treatment was pain-free. Everyone, from reception to clinical staff, is caring, warm & friendly. I have recommended the practice to friends and relatives."

Dr LB (Highcliffe, 20 July 14)

"The treatment I received from the Reception team and from the Dentist and her nurse in the surgery was excellent. I could not have been treated any better."

Mrs KL (Christchurch, 1 June 2014)

"Reception - Always  friendly, cheerful and very helpful.

Hygienist - Friendly, extremely efficient and informative.

My Dentist - Always helpful, efficient and very caring.  A brilliant dentist who always puts you at ease and completes any procedure with the utmost professionalism.  I include her Dental Nurse, Andrea in all of these comments - Brilliant!.

I would certainly recommend this practice to anyone - in fact most of my friend and family, daughter and Grandchildren have become patient on my recommendation."

Mr CH, (Christchurch, 14 April 2014)

"A clear explanation of the treatment proposed was followed by exceptionally skilfully implementation in all respects."

Mr TB (Christchurch, 5 March 2013)

" I moved here aged 62, uneven teeth, did not like to smile. I saw your advert. That was the beginning of my long relationship with Hoburne Dental Practice.

They changed my bite (it is never too late) so that my teeth could be capped. My upper and lower dentures were replaced by bridges, so no more mouth ulcers. Then the most marvellous thing of all, when a vital tooth, supporting a bridge had to go. I was offered implants and what an amazing success they are. Thank you one and all. "

Mrs IB (Christchurch, 5 December 2013)

"I was very impressed with my treatment from start to finish. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Sharon for her help. Great job. "

Mr CB, (Barton-on-Sea, 5 March 2013)

"At my previous dentist I was only given the option of getting an implant for my missing front tooth. This was not the option for me due to the expense. At Hoburne, however, I was offered painless far more inexpensive solution. Very pleased with the overall experience so far. "

Mr KC, (Bransgore, 18 March 2013)

"I was in a very bad place; I was physically unwell and needed a lot of dental treatment. Without the help of the reception staff I would not have even got as far as seeing the dentist, such was my nervousness and distress. The dentist and all the staff were exceptional.  My treatment is well underway and has made a difference to my daily life. "

Ms SM, (Burton, 18 April 2013)

"I have attended that practice for many years and have always received the most friendly and professional care. The staff are almost like friends. I would recommend this practice without any reservation. "

Mr TJ, (Bournemouth, 18 April 2013)

"I have found the treatment and caring attitude of Peter has exceeded my expectations. Every step of my treatment has been delivered with utmost skill and professionalism. I love my new smile!"
