William Whately of Parkhill Road attended to my teeth when I was in my 20s and now, aged 50, I am…read morestill putting right the botched dentistry. He held my xrays the wrong way and filled a bottom molar clumsily that I had no issues with and sent me off with a bulky filling that fused my 2 teeth together. Many dentists have described it as heavy handed dentistry and tried half unsuccessfully to separate it since. The pressure pain I suffered on this tooth recently has made me finally give in and beg to have it pulled. After my 2nd visit to this cowboy, I was left a nervous wreck and the next dentist said that the bruising to my face was excessive and not what he would expect. My Mother also had issues and had to contest the bill that they tried to pursue even though she had to spend more money getting her teeth corrected after his work. I went to this pompous man because an ex friend of mine was his dental nurse at the time. He was all charm and false niceness until things went wrong and then, I couldn't have been treated more rudely. I have been left.with fear of all dentists since setting foot in his surgery.

Mr Whately is a really fabulous dentist. Calm and gentle and aware of keeping the patient informed…read moreand comfortable during procedures. Also up-to-date with the latest techniques and aware of the importance of the health of the whole mouth rather than just the teeth. I've been a patient of Mr Whately's for about 30 years and although I have seen other dentists now and then (when living outside the area) I have never been happy with anyone else. No NHS patients and the fees are reasonably expensive but well worth it (in my opinion). He is the only dentist in the practise so the waiting room is always quiet (you rarely meet another patient) and calm and the reception staff are happy to mind the children during routine appointments. Limited street parking. Car parks nearby.

I attended a medical conference at Derriford Hospital this week. Coming from London, I was…read moreinterested to see how large hospitals have to run in more rural settings. I found ample parking at 8.30 in the morning though I gather from local friends that it can be more challenging. I understand that there's a free park and ride scheme but I never saw any signs for this. Parking for a whole day costs £8, cheaper than in London hospitals. The signposting to the postgraduate centre was a bit mazy from the front of the hospital but the staff were helpful in offering directions. The acute medicine course was interesting and informative with a nice range of speakers. The venue was comfortable. Quite an impressive setup here in the south west.

There are lots of alternative therapies on offer here as well. The doctors are kind and understanding and the receptionists friendly and helpful. There is a small parking area outside which seems ample for drivers and the centre itself is always clean and tidy with ample lighting and a sense of calm. The nurses are angels and it feels like everyone there is doing the best job that they can. There are male and female doctors for you too see and private things dont need to be discussed at reception in front of the whole waiting room. This centre is also shared by another doctor who is independent but it doesnt interefere with the general running of the surgery in any way

This is to help correct my foot drop issues due to nerve damage from a spinal cord injury. The very first thing that struck me was how friendly and helpful all the staff are. Mr Kelly (Kevin) is very informative, he explained things to me very clearly. So i understood the treatment that would be involved and how long that it may take. The thing that also struck me was that if you don't understand something or have further questions he takes the time to explain it. He is very pleasant and easy to talk too. I really can't say enough great things about this practice. When all other doctors had given up on me, Kevin and the Kinesio treatments have enabled me to regain a much better foot position. One which enables me to be able to walk with much less pain and discomfort. Noticeably improving my balance and in turn my quality of life. I'm still in the early stages of treatment but i'm already seeing improvements. My experience here has been fantastic! I truly mean that! Kevin made it a point to find out my medical history and really understand my situation in order to create a plan that is tailored for me. The support and service they offer at Peverall Chiropractic clinic is superb!
