I recently saw Dr Thomas for a dental cleaning and had a really positive experience. He was thorough yet gentle, and made the whole process very comfortable. I also asked about retainers and some tooth sensitivity I’ve been experiencing, and he took the time to explain everything clearly and provide helpful advice without rushing. I really appreciated how patient and informative he was.
First time I went to a dental clinic here in Australia. I lived in Footscray so I usually search somewhere near my place for clinics. There are different dental clinic here in my area but Fine Smiles Dental has a lot of reviews and a good 4.8 ratings so I decided to go and try. I booked an appointment online and did the registration form which was super easy. The clinic is so clean, I was greeted well by the receptionist. Staff were so friendly. Dr Helen Chau was the one who looked after me, she's so nice and she did a very good job in cleaning my teeth, she also carefully examined and checked, took photos and explained every bits and pieces regarding my teeth and how to maintain them moving forward. I loved how they look after me, it really did not disappoint, 100% recommended. I already have an appointment in 6 months!! Thank you so much Fine Smiles Dental and Dr. Helen Chau! Ohh I also got a complimentary dental kit. Yay! Now I can say I found my dental place.
I’ve needed a lot of dental work since I was a kid and have seen many dentists over the years. Dr Eugene Lim is honestly one of the best I’ve ever been to. He shows genuine care, empathy, and patience, and always makes sure you feel comfortable. He’s professional, friendly, and very skilled at what he does, with great attention to detail. The reception team is also fantastic — they’re always patient and welcoming. I feel well looked after every time I visit.
It was such a lovely experience from start to finish and Dr. Rama Chockalingam and his team were so amazing. Thank u so much for ensuring l had such an easy and cared for experience. I’m happy l no longer have to worry about my wisdom teeth ever again. 😄🤗
Would easily recommend this dental clinic! I found out about this clinic through a recommendation from a friend. Dr Thomas was so knowledgeable, attentive and competent. And I felt very looked after by him and the team. They have personally become my gold standard by which I’ll measure all other healthcare providers from now on.
