Patient stories

Three people who let us tell you what happened, in their own words rather than ours.

A mother and her daughter, both patients at the clinic

Two generations, one appointment slot

Akosua had not seen a dentist in eleven years and did not want her daughter to inherit that. They come together now, back to back on a Saturday morning. Maame has had one filling in six years and is not afraid of the chair, which was the whole point.

The visit where nothing happens on purpose

Nii's first three appointments involved no treatment at all — a ride in the chair, a look at the mirror, a sticker. By the fourth he asked to have his teeth counted. He has since sat through two fillings without holding anybody's hand.

Eleven visits, one figure, no surprises

Years of grinding had worn Gifty's upper teeth to two thirds of their height. The plan ran to eleven appointments across five months and the quote she was given in February was the amount she paid in July. She sent us the photograph herself.

In their words

What people say afterwards

I had put off going for six years because of one bad experience as a child. They took forty minutes to explain what they wanted to do before anything touched my mouth. I have been back four times since.

Patient since 2022

My son cracked a tooth on a Saturday morning. I called at nine, we were seen at eleven, and he was back at football the following week. No fuss, no lecture.

The quote they gave me at the start is the amount I paid at the end. After what I had been through elsewhere that on its own was worth changing practice for.

A note on these

Every story here was written by the patient

We asked; they wrote; we changed nothing but the spelling. Names are used with permission and the photographs are of the people described. If you would rather tell us something privately, reception will pass it on without your name attached.

Same-day emergency slots every day we open, and a first appointment that costs GHS 150 whatever we find.
