This page is a work in progress and has only been up a few days.
If you have time please read it and give me feedback
The page is accessed by using the <NHS dentistry - whats happening?> link on the front page at

Hi Simon -
to Cable Forum
- I read your page, & totally agree about the ridiculousness of setting performance targets in health care.
One thing you may want to think about, is stating a few of your thoughts on how you feel you an offer a better service as a private, rather than NHS, practice?
My dentist went private this year, I've been with him for 12 years - even if there was a choice (no new NHS patients being taken on round here), I would have stayed with him. Since the change I have found he is able to be much more relaxed about the consultation & I no longer feel like I am a conveyor belt. I am not happy about the extra costs, of course, but they are somewhat offset by the improvement in the service.
