Well,it is drawing near the end of the year in which I bought the practice and what a phenomenal year it has been in many ways.

There seems to have been so many changes in the nine months.
The practice is very busy at the moment and we are making appointments for routine treatments for next year already!
however I do try to see anyone in pain in the same day or at least within 24 hrs.If you are in pain please contact the surgery as early in the day as possible so we can facilitate this.
Those of you that have been in recently will notice that Kelly is no longer with us.I am on my own now and plan to review the situation after Christmas.

Another change that has relevance to the workings of the practice is that I am sending denture work to a lab out of the town.This is a lab well known to me and it mmeans that I can offer better and different options on my denture work.It does however mean that repairs can usually take a couple of days instead of the same day service.
The lab that I am sending work to is Dental Crafts in Londonderry owned byTrevor Hughes.

With December almost here,I plan to try to update this newsletter more frequently.I would like to say once a week but realistically it will probably be once a month unless there is something of relevance or interest that necessitates different.

Another bit of relevant information is that there will be no dentist in the practice on Fri 8th and Monday 11th of December.I am having these days off(I hope well-deserved.)Elaine will be here to answer the phone,make appointments and give general advice should anyone have a problem.

I also can be contacted should there be any urgent matters.

We have our first Christmas lunch as the RoeValley Dental Practice to look forward to on the 22nd!

Happy Christmas and many thanks for my first year in practice as a practice owner!
