Hastings - Golden Apple Dental

Had an appointment with Golden Apple Dental last week - they were fantastic. Anyone worried about dental procedures can rest assured you are in good hands . They were experts at pain relief and the technology is state of the art". I had great service

Last week I travelled from Wellington to Hastings to see my lovely dentist Isha. I am happy to make the trip knowing that I am seeing a dentist who is so highly skilled and professional whilst still being very caring and compassionate. Thank you Isha and the lovely team at Golden Apple Dental.

Excellent service, Lovely welcoming staff.Kept me informed the whole way through made the checkup pretty painless. Can’t remember the dentists name but she was very professional and friendly

Save your money to somewhere else. Not here!!!The dentist never explained to me what's going on with my tooth, she just said i need a major operation. Not even asking how long the pain i have been feeling with my tooth, how extreme the pain is, etc. And had me on xray even i already had one with them 10 months ago.Only questions involved are1. what is my work and 2. my husband's work.The next thing we know, she is charging us $2,500 and scheduled me the next day first thing in the morning without leaving me a choice! We just been there less than 10 min. Very dissapointing!

I am so impressed with Dr Isha! She is so professional, kind and has amazing bedside manner. She is very knowledgeable and went above and beyond with her care and attention. It was an amazing dental experience that was so smooth and I was very relaxed. Thanks so much!

I started my journey with Isha and team at Golden Apple last year, I say a journey as this is what it has been for me.Unfortunately due to a health condition my teeth had deteriorated quite a lot in the last few years and after a recommendation from a friend I took the plunge and called Golden Apple to make an appointment.I didn’t have to wait long for an appointment which was a positive as it gave me no time to back out.I meet with Isha and explained I have high anxiety about dentists due to a horrible experience with another dentist.Isha was empathetic and reassuring however unfortunately the news about my teeth was as I dreaded they needed to come out … deep breaths needed!We discussed the plan and agreed to take the teeth out in two lots and I would definitely need to be sedated.The day arrives and im having a nervous breakdown, Isha and her team were amazing they kept me calm and Isha has a great sense of humour so that helps!It’s a miracle they managed to get a line in as I have shocking veins but she did it,Success half the teeth out and we wait a few weeks to get the next lot out but alas to no avail they couldn’t get a line in so I go back the following week and fork and spoon (that’s the polite version of the f word) they couldn’t get a line in again so unfortunately Isha had no choice but to refer me to the hospital which to this day months later I still haven’t heard from.In December my anxiety about the way I looked with my teeth was at a high so I decided to call Isha and ask can we just try once more please, the answer was yes .. yay now I just needed my body to behave!This week was my appointment, the team welcomed me back like a long lost friend and in we went.They tried to get a line in however my vein’s refused to cooperate I was started to feel sick and thought well it is what it is but no Isha went out to the health centre and brought in this fantastic man, my hero and he managed to get in line hallelujah and that’s all I remembered from that part obviously the sedation workedI had my follow up today and all is going according to plan YAY!Now I could have just written a review saying great dentist but these people are amazing they ooze empathy and treat you like an intelligent person I can’t recommend them enough they all deserve a medal!Fork & spoon I haven’t written a novel like this in years.Thank Golden Apple

Way better experience than my last visit! Had a new dentist this time Dr Alina, had to have my tooth extracted (first time) and she walked me through each step of the way and she was absolutely amazing, both the ladys I should say! They both made today's visit a breeze and made me feel comfortable. Was so lucky to have 2 lovely lady's that's for sure :)

Have been to Apple Dental now for the past two years and can honestly say, they are the best dentist I have ever been to. Always caring, informative and very reasonably priced. Isha is exceptional in her patient care and gives 110%. Thank you Golden Apple.

Absolutely recommend Isha. After a complicated journey with other dentists, endodontist and periodontist, she was able to help me and find my peace back. She and her team went the extra mile to help me smile again. Grateful forever!!!!!
