The Mydentist Corstorphine practice, is now located on St Johns Road, and was officially launched by practice manager, Claire Macmillan, and her team on August 8, 2024.
Following a project that lasted just over 18 months, all the dentists and staff from the previous Corstorphine site on Meadow Pl Road have moved to the new site, where patient appointments have now started.
Claire Macmillan, practice manager at Mydentist Corstorphine, said, "I am delighted to reveal the new facilities and flexibility of appointment times that we can now offer to our patients.
“With our recent enhancements and expanded services, we're poised to deliver a higher level of dental care and provide an even more exceptional experience to our community. We look forward to welcoming patients into the practice over the coming weeks and months."
The move has marked a substantial enhancement for the 8,000 patients of Mydentist in the community of Corstorphine. According to Mydentist, patients will now benefit from a modern, state-of-the-art practice, a greater range of dental treatments and technology, as well as improved travel links and disability access.
There are four surgeries available at the Mydentist Corstorphine practice, with key services offered to its patients including, NHS dental care, private treatment options via the Mydentist options service, hygiene and cosmetic services.
Laura Ward, Mydentist area development manager, commented, “We’ve been working very hard to relocate to a more accessible site in Corstorphine for the last 18 months, so to see the new practice finally open is fantastic.
“With four modern surgeries we now have much more choice for patients, plus our team are benefitting from improved facilities. Our aim was to meet the needs of our patients and our team here in Corstorphine now and in the future, and feedback so far has been extremely positive.”
She added, “We know that accessing dental care in this region is difficult which is why we’re pleased to have recruited two new dentists, who are due to start in November, which means we can then increase our NHS capacity and take on new patients.”
