Reviewers describe sensory support and trust in the dentist

Six reviews describe care for autistic patients or people with sensory or special needs, all of them four- or five-star. Ten reviewers say they trust the dentist's word. It keeps a Monday-to-Thursday week, 8 am to 4 pm, so it suits daytime visits more than after-work ones.
