Bengal Street, on the corner
A converted mill on the corner of Bengal Street, ground floor, with a black door and the name on the glass. If you walk past a red-brick chimney you have gone about thirty seconds too far.

Getting in
Every one of these is something somebody has rung up to ask, which is why it is written down rather than left to a phone call.
- Is it step-free?
- Yes. Level access from Bengal Street through a 900mm door, and all three surgeries are on the ground floor. There is no lift because there is no upstairs.
- Where do I park?
- There is no practice car park. Pay-and-display on Bengal Street and Jersey Street, and a multi-storey on Great Ancoats Street about four minutes away. One Blue Badge bay is directly outside.
- Which tram or bus?
- New Islington on the Ashton line is a seven-minute walk. The 216 and 217 stop on Great Ancoats Street. From Piccadilly it is fifteen minutes on foot.
- Can I bring someone with me?
- Yes, into the surgery as well as the waiting room. People bring partners, friends and support workers and it helps more often than not.
- Is there a toilet?
- Yes, accessible, off the waiting room. Worth knowing if you are anxious — a lot of people ask and almost nobody asks out loud.
- Do you take NHS patients?
- We are a private practice, so no. We publish every price so you can compare before you ring. If you need an NHS dentist, ring 111 and they will tell you who is taking patients.
If it is your first time
You can sit outside until we are ready
Tell reception when you arrive, or ring from the pavement, and we will text you when the chair is free. A lot of people do this and nobody in the building thinks anything of it.
There is a bench outside the door and a café two units along that does not mind people waiting with one coffee.
