My family used to go to the same dentist but to see Mr Donelly. It was when he finally left that Mark Wilkinson pulled the plug on NHS. His excuse was that he couldn;t get another dentist to share the practise. It's funny how he has the time to see private patients and not NHS. I have been going there for 38 years and consider him to have no respect for longevity and/or faithful patients. It used to be a good dentist to in my opinion. We contacted NHS Direct and the nearest ones are in Chorley. This isn't bad for me as that's quite convenient but for my mother who doesn't drive and has been to the other dentist for almost 60 years has no choice now but to pay privately.

If I sound bitter, then that's because I am and not being nasty but hope it doesn't work out!
