    Original Feedback for Mydentist - Barrack Street - Norwich:

    Reception area & staff need improvement

    Because I have ongoing gum problems & am on specialist medication for Rheumatoid Arthritis, I have had issues this year with tooth extractions. In March I had to have a wisdom tooth out, but had to be referred to the Norfolk & Norwich for this. I was then told I would go on a waiting list, but not how long the wait would be. I presumed it would be quick because of how painful teeth are. One of the dentists put in a temporary fix, to help & I had it removed in about 3-4 weeks. But during September I had another tooth that was problematic and had to come out, so I was put onto another waiting list (again). The hospital (N & N) haven’t even received the original referral from the holding place (this was on the 12th September ) & I’ve called many times. however They have informed me it could be up to 22 weeks wait which is shocking. Why is this the case for urgent dental work? I then contacted the Siskin Centre, only to be told that they wouldn’t do it as I had a dentist & had been referred!! I have put in a complaint to the N & N & it’s just going through some black hole. No wonder they and many other services in Norfolk are in “special measures”...
