Any dentists taking new patients?
 

My daughter (14) has been on the waiting list over a year, and we are getting desperate now, rang them today and still no idea when or where she can be seen.....am gonna try Oak House tomorrow but not too optimistic.:(

Try Baxenden Dental Practice, tel. 01254 236794. I have a friend who was referred there by NHS direct when she needed an emergency appointment a few months ago, from that both she & her husband were put on their register - might be worth a try.

The one near Morrisons in Blackburn might be worth a try, will get details off my daughter if you want them

It's ridicolous, a basic health issue everybody should be entitled to. I have to take my daughter to Barnoldswick :mad:

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

Accrington Rd Dental Practice, near the Toll Bar pub in Blackburn. I've just enrolled after being quoted a twelve month wait in Accy. Wouldn't mind but I've got full BUPA cover through my employer and I only need an NHS referral!!!!

Cheers Dorfmund, I had spotted their advert and have been trying to get thru on the phone for 2 days now! Will keep trying!:D

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

there's 2 dental practices on Accy road now, one is on the same side as the community centre and one is on the opposite side

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

Try the one on warner street in accy, put my partners name down and recieved a phonecall within 2 mths but I were already on ther books?

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

When my DEntist went Private (Antley Villa)...it took me 2 years to get back on to NHS dentist...which was at Accy Vic then...later transfferred to Oak House...the situation is a total disgrace!...Even once i'd got accepted, i got seen by mainly trainee dentists who never seemed to be there for very long....I've got a great Dentist at Oak House now called David...who i'd reccomend to anyone...try to get in there if you can!

Try Oakleigh Dentist in Ossy!

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

Oakleigh and Oak House both no go, still trying for the Accy rd ones.

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

I need a dentist too, I used to go to Antley villa but couldn't afford the monthly fees any longer as my sly son had me paying his too because he didn't have a bank account. I've cancelled us both 2 months ago and now I have toothache :(:eek:
It's bad when you have to put other bills before having your teeth looked after:sad8:

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

that was why i quit wi them robbers, when they went private sue, wanted £75 per year fer me to stay on there books, as i got false knashers told em to get stuffed. have they not still got emergancy dentists up accy vic?

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

Bloody hell Cashy, the robbing barstewards were charging me £12.50 a month. I've just had my calculator out and that's £150 a year. £300 for me and son:eek::eek:
I don't think they have em at Accy Vic now. I've been told to ring NHS direct to get an appointment. :(

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

if you need an emergency dentist then you go to oak house .. i was there twice last year .. if you dont have a dentist they'll put you on the waiting list and someone will contact you .. i got a letter about 3 months later .. and signed up at baxenden dentists.

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

that was a few years ago they went private, Inflation.:D

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

Thanks I will call tomorrow :D

Re: Any dentists taking new patients?
 

I was with them to Cashy until they went Private!...It took me 2 years after leaving them to get taken on by another NHS Dentist...got the one at Accy Vic...which is now at Oak House. I'm quite happy there now...well as happy as you can be going to a Dentist that is!!!:D

Finally! After all this time we have an orthodontist willing to put braces on for Kels on the NHS ! Delighted as the last bunch ( Richmond terrace, Blackburn) said her teeth were 0.5mm not crooked enough and wanted £3k to do it as a private patient!:rolleyes:
Accrington Road Dental surgery I thank you!:alright:
