We are very sad to have to share with patients that Carole Parker has decided to retire at the end of January 2024.  Carole has worked as a dentist in the local area since qualifying more than 40 years ago, initially running her own successful Practice in nearby Bamford and then, more recently, the last 7 years working with us at Diamond Court.

Carole’s dedication to her patients is second to none and her kind and friendly nature will be sorely missed.  We are sure that all patients would like to join the staff at Diamond Court in wishing Carole a well-deserved retirement and all the very best for the future.

Carole has been carefully planning her retirement over the last 12 months and all of Carole’s patients have been moved on to the lists of one of our other existing dentists.  If any patient is unsure who their new dentist will be or, if there is anything we can do to help with this transition, then please feel free to speak to one of our reception team.

Once again congratulations to Carole on a wonderful career!

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all our patients a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Due to the dangerous driving conditions and flooding of numerous roads in the local area, the Practice will be closed on Saturday 21st October.

The weather is forecasted to improve during the weekend so we plan to open as normal on Monday morning.

Due to the overnight snow and dangerous travelling conditions, the Practice will be closed until at least 10am this morning when we will reassess whether it is safe to open for the rest of the day. We will be in touch with any patients who need to have their appointments re-arranged.  We would be most grateful if patients could contact the Practice directly if they need to cancel their appointments.
