To our Patients & Friends at GHB Dental Care,
RE: Coronavirus (COVID-19)
We find ourselves in unprecedented times and are trying our utmost to navigate through these uncertainties.
The relevant bodies have advised that ALL dental practices must postpone ALL planned routine dental care.
For our Registered Patients, we have now setup an Emergency Telephone Consultation Service. This is for anyone that may have urgent pain, swelling or bleeding.
This is operated between the hours of 09:00 to 13:00 on Monday – Friday (excluding Bank holidays).
If you are Registered with us and require our assistance, please contact us on our usual telephone number (0114 2377642) during these hours. You will be greeted by one of our Registered nurses in the first instance. If required, a telephone consultation can then be organised with your dentist to discuss your concerns.
If circumstances change in the coming weeks and we are not permitted to be at the premises, the voicemail will direct you to an alternate telephone number where we can be contacted.
Alternatively, you are welcome to ask your dentist a question by email on [email protected] and mark it as FAO: Your Dentist name (Mr. Ricky Makkar, Mr. Masood Jaffer or Mr. Sat. Makkar).
If you are soon due to attend for your routine Dental Check-up and Scale & Polish, we must defer this to the first available opportunity. We are already implementing changes to increase our clinical capacity for when this pandemic is over, to enable all patients to attend and catch-up on their overdue visit.
We need to keep the Dental Practice patient entrance locked at this time, to reduce person-to-person contact. Therefore please telephone us rather than leaving your home to attend in person. If an emergency appointment is booked for you, please do the following:
– Telephone us when you are at the door and we will unlock it for you.
– Attend close to your appointment time. (Our appointment slots will be structured to minimise the risk of multiple patients being in the premises at any one time).
– Attend alone where possible, or with a single Carer / Parent / Guardian as required.
All being well, we are aiming to re-open at the first available opportunity. Please regularly check our website at www.GHBDental.co.uk as this will be updated as and when circumstances change.
As a team, we are all doing everything we possibly can to remain fit, well and able to work.
We hope to be able to continue to offer our usual high standard of dental care for you as soon as possible.
Thank you for your support and we hope you stay safe.
