I see Ashley at Durban Dental and he is superb. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him. His knowledge and clinical skills seem top notch. He offers practical and sound advice, without pushing unnecessary treatments. He gives confidence and is calm and patient. I find the whole team welcoming and very professional. Highly recommended.

I am a nervous patient but I have every confidence in my dentist. This has changed my whole outlook in coming to the dentist. Also the treatment and results are excellent . The patience and time taken to insure the tooth is smooth after the filling and fits the gap correctly is extraordinary . A very happy patient .

I was experiencing problems with my general health that affected my next step forward with dental treatment. The dentist was extremely understanding and patient coming up with a solution and produced a denture that has been extremely successful.

Since being referred to Ashley Sim for the making of a denture, he has been super efficient and kindness itself. Dentists are not my favourite people due to past experiences and all the staff at Durbans have been very understanding.

I can't thank Dr Ruth, Dental Nurse EJ and Hygienist Anda enough for their kindness, care and compassion, following my recent extensive dental treatment. I can now smile with confidence. I would highly recommend each of them, and I feel I have found the perfect practice for me. Thank you so much.

Saw Dr Ruth and dental nurse EJ, fantastic and calm service. Kids felt relaxed and well looked after. Their patient is their main priority and they are focussed on well being.

I am a nervous patient and my dentist explained the procedure for me and gave me the option for him to stop if I needed . ..I felt more in control.
