“I cannot recommend Dr Madalina and her dental clinic highly enough. She is an outstanding professional who genuinely cares for her patients and approaches every treatment as a true work of art. The clinic itself is beautiful, modern, and welcoming, with staff who are not only friendly but also exceptionally well trained.

I have personally used a range of services here, from extractions and fillings to retainers, and each time I have been impressed by the precision and attention to detail with which Dr Madalina supervises and carries out the procedures. It is rare to find such a combination of skill, artistry, and genuine care.

An emergency appointment led us to Emicare and we could not be happier with the professionalism and service. Having been through quite a few dental practices in recent times, wo found Emicare to be swift and courteous in their approach with a warm welcome in reception. Appointment was on schedule and we departed with the result we required.We willl be returning for other dental works in future for sure!Highly recommended

Dr. Mustafa Duman helped me so much with my tooth emergency. I lost a tooth and came in last minute – he fixed everything quickly and without pain. He’s kind, explains everything clearly, and makes you feel totally at ease. If you’re afraid of dentists, he’s the one to go to! Great team and a very professional clinic. Highly recommend! 🫶🏼

I managed to break the side of a molar which was now wobbling in my mouth. I can live without a filling but not this problem so I went in for an emergency appointment on a late Friday afternoon. The dentist and assistant were great in fitting a temporarily solution and explained all options well. Many thanks.
