Best New Website Nomination

We are very pleased to announce that our website has been shortlisted for the best new website award by Dentistry magazine. The site has taken a great deal of hard work and time, thus we are delighted with this nomination.

This also means that we have been shortlisted for two awards this year, the other being Best Young Dentist in London for Dr Nissit Patel. We believe our site is unique in the content and description of treatment and we are proud that all of the case photographs were taken by and treated by our Principal dentist, Dr Nissit Patel.

We aim to improve our site in 2011 with further links in the Patient area and the addition of new and exciting treatments, so watch this space!
