Absolutely disgusted with Oakley, paid 1800 for dentures that dont fit went back to have them adjusted told me had to make an appointment for a week later and wanted to charge me 65, the teeth have caused sore gums, even after driving up there and asking to see someone to adjust them which would have taken minutes I was told no!!!!! you have to make an appointment,the practice has gone down hill since Steven left he wouldnt have left a patient in pain

I started going to Oakley after being a nervous NHS patient. I've had a few appointments now including an extraction & fillings and can't rate Uzair enough. He's so patient & explains everything step by step to make me feel at ease. I'd recommend Oakley to anyone, especially nervous patients

Having endured many years with a poor NHS dentist, my wife, Samantha, decided to try Oakley Dental in 2018 and I soon followed suit. All the staff are welcoming, friendly, understanding and most of all, extremely professional and knowledgeable. A big shout out to Cindy and Chelsea for our hygiene appointments, and Danny and Amber for our dental work/check ups.

Fully recommend this practice. All the staff are friendly and very professional. Uzair explained every step of my treatment, listening to my concerns so I felt fully at ease. Clare checked regularly throughout procedure to see how I felt and its clear these two make a great team. After a not so good experience at my last dentist I know I made the right decision to change to Oakley where I completely trust my dental care in their hands

Oakley is an amazing dental practice. All of the staff are extremely helpful, friendly and efficient. I am a nervous patient and I CANNOT recommend Adam enough. Throughout my life I have had several dentists and he by far exceeds all of them. His attention to detail, professionalism and care for his patients is incredible. He is a great guy! Thanks Adam

I haven't yet begun my treatment - which is fairly major (to me, for sure) - but I am very encouraged by the service I've received so far. At its initial stages of assessment and consultation for treatment plan, I've found the staff, from receptionist to dentist, to be helpful, courteous and even sympathetic to my abject nervousness. I hope, of course, that this will continue throughout my treatment and I'm confident it will.

I would highly recommend Oakley dental surgery. The team are highly professional, personable and super friendly. Danny is a perfectionist and from my first visit I felt confident in his ability to do an outstanding job. My initial consultation was with Helier, her kind reassuring manner gave me the confidence to start my treatment plan. All the staff at the practice have such a caring approach, they make you feel at ease and more than just another patient. It's definitely a big smile from me. Gracias!

I came to Oakley 18 months ago and wouldn't dream of going anywhere else now. Ritu and Clare have looked after me from the first appointment, through a full treatment plan and now regular checkups. They are the 'A Team' - professional and friendly and I actually look forward to coming to the dentist! My teeth are amazing - thank you

The whole experience has been amazing at Oakley dental. Myself and my partner wanted work doing and had a tight time frame. They made it happen and the results are beautiful. We were not pushed into anything we didn't want either like some other places we looked into. 100% recommend!

Only had my initial consultation but I already need to leave a review because they're all so lovely. Can't find an NHS dentist anywhere so figured if I'm gonna pay private I may aswell go for the best. They're so lovely they take their time with you to understand what you want and explain what they can offer, as well as taking the time to get to know you as a person They offer both normal dentistry and cosmetic! Honestly I'm so glad I've signed up with them and really excited to get everything done! If you're looking for a private dentist these are your angels because they're all so lovely. Xx

I've had a few appointments now, one with a hygienist, Shahid, who was really careful and made sure everything was cleaned without hurting. He was always checking to make sure I was ok and didn't need to stop. I've also had a couple of appointments with Daniel too for fillings and root canals. Daniel explains everything he's doing, keeps me calm, and again works carefully to ensure I'm comfortable all the way through. Everything has gone perfectly and I'm really happy with his work. I'm so glad I've found a dentist that I don't dread going to.

I've had 3 appointments at Oakley with 3 different members of staff for different treatments and I've never met such a lovely staff base on the whole. As a nervous patient from the second you walk through the door your made to feel comfortable and for this reason alone I would choose Oakley over any other practice I've visited any day. Had a particularly lovely appointment with Hellia today who talked me through the whitening process; she was professional, personable and made me feel as if she really enjoyed her job. Thank you so much for such a positive experience.

As I was a very nervous patient I hadnt been to the dentist in years. Ive been to Oakley a few times now for treatments and Im wondering why I put it off for so long! Everyone at the practice is super friendly and made me feel very reassured and at ease. Already booked in for next check up! Thanks!

I have been with Oakley Dental for over 15 years since they were located in Crumpsall. Steve and the team are very welcoming and always have an upbeat and positive attitude from the moment you walk through the door. Their surgery is very clean and ultra modern. I have complete trust in their expertise in looking after all my dental needs.
Jackie Price
Would like to thank, Steven, and his team at Oakley Dental, not been to a dentist for 20 odd years! Had made my mind up i had to go, after losing a couple of front teeth, i was very nervous,but was made to feel so welcome, and felt so put at ease, had quite a few teeth out, under sedation, i would recommend this to anyone who has a deep fear like me!! I can say now that i don"t mind going to the Dentist at all, so friendly and professional... Now i can smile again... had lots of good comments off my friends, and family .

I come to this dentist to have my teeth cleaned. The staff are fabulous and Cindy is great the hygeniest. I have also recommended this place to friends and family. Thank you for looking after my smile.
Hayley Ann Brooks
I have been at this practice for 6 years and I would never change practice. I feel safe in the hands of the Oakley dental staff I always feel welcomed there, so well looked after and receive sound advice. Ritu, Steve and Elisha the hygienist do an amazing job helping me look after my teeth and I would highly recommend this practice to anyone.
Catherine Fitzpatrick
I have been with Oakley dentist for just over 18 years, prior to joining this practice I had a huge fear of the dentist, to the point where I had stopped going. Then I met Steven, I still cannot have treatment without sedation, but to know there is an alternative to enable me to have the necessary treatment is essential for me. I no longer fear going for my dental check ups. The sedation is fantastic, to the point where I am secretly happy when Steven tells me I need work done on my teeth.
