DID YOU KNOW? Broken Promises. The community of Walmley is big enough to support a purpose built, “all singing all dancing”, “cradle to grave” community centre, which we were promised over 25 years ago. The City Council even bought a piece of land off Municipal Charities for £25,000 specifically to build a community centre. So what happened to the land ? The land is leased to the Doctors Surgery and Clinic in the Village Centre. ***************************************************

Its purpose is to help consumers, who are choosing a new dental practice, considering treatments and deciding how to pay. Not all private dentists provide NHS treatment so check first before you register. Choosing Prices vary and it is important to compare prices and services. Ask if they charge a registration fee. Consider your personal needs such as weekend appointments and discuss them with each practice. It may be possible to treat a problem in several ways. Ask your dentist what the options are and get the cost of the treatment plan in writing. When you agree to treatment make sure you're clear about whether your dentist is charging you for NHS or private treatment. How to pay There are different ways of paying for private dental treatment. Your practice should be able to advise you so that you can choose the most appropriate one. At the end of your treatment you are entitled to an itemised bill, which should give details of all the costs you have incurred. Making a complaint If you are unhappy with the service or treatment, first of all talk to your dentist. If you are not satisfied with the response you receive then write to your practice. It should have a formal complaints procedure. The General Dental Council (GDC) is the governing body for these professions in the UK. If neither your practice nor the GDC can help, or resolve matters to your satisfaction, you may need to take action through the courts. Your local Trading Standards Department will be able to help you. You can change your dentist at any time. You have the right to get copies of personal records, including your dental records and x-rays. You'll need to make a written request to the dentist to get them and you may have to pay a fee.
