EXCELLENT Based on 363 reviews Amy Cavanagh05/06/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't express enough gratitude for the incredible support I've received from Gisborne Family Dental. Not only is the dental care fabulous, but the receptionist (Melissa) is consistently friendly, helpful, and goes above and beyond to assist. They truly bent over backwards to write supporting letters to help me apply for a special consideration for my two large university assignments that fell right when I had to have dental work completed. This level of empathy and dedication Dr Priscilla showed during a stressful period made me so grateful. Highly recommend them for their outstanding care and truly compassionate team!

Holly Tomlinson28/05/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend this practise enough, especially Dr. Jack. I experienced a lot of anxiety regarding the dentist before being recommend to come here, however Dr. Jack is so thorough, gentle and informative, it always feels like I'm in good hands and now I don't experience that same anxiety before an appointment. Definitely the best dentist I've ever been to! Barbara Matthews19/05/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I have recently moved to Australia from the UK, to join our son and daughter in law. We needed to register with a dentist. My son made an appointment for us at the Gisborne Family Dentist. Dr Bethany carried out our first check ups. She was very friendly and welcoming but also very thorough and explained the treatment she thought would be needed. She used the X ray images to explain her diagnosis and was very clear and thorough in her explanation. She also gave both of us an estimate of cost which we found very helpful . We have now returned for our necessary appointments and again were very comfortable with Dr Bethany's treatment. Everyone at the surgery is very friendly and helpful including the reception staff. We're so pleased to have found Dr Bethany and this practice. Josef Hanna17/04/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best dental place ever!!
