Hygeia is about the expertise and care of its staff – who are brilliant at what they do. They are very skilled and up to date. I do believe that Jo – and the whole team – really try to deliver an excellent service – and succeed. Everyone is treated as an individual – with great care and respect. Try them yourself.

I love it! Coming here has changed my life. I had severe dental phobia and thought I’d never be able to get dental work done – but here I am three fillings later! The staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming, including the Practice Cat, Kernow. I am so glad I’ve found this Dental Practice. Thank you!

Cannot recommend Hygeia highly enough… it is expensive but worth every penny. From Louise’s delightful customer service to Jo’s truly professional and gentle treatment this practice has it all. As a confirmed wimp I do not do pain but no one can beat Jo for comfortable and thorough care. Simply the best.

Jo is a highly skilled dentist – the best I have ever had. I used to think that all dentists were the same in terms of qualifications, experience and use of materials but I have come to realise that a few are much better than the others and Jo is one of them!

Jo has restored my faith in going to the dentist – she is my own tooth angel! I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jo to anybody who has a fear of dentists, not to mention the lovely work she has done on my teeth. A kind, competent and wonderful practitioner. Thank you Jo.

Choosing this practice was one of the best decisions of my life! I’ve never felt so relaxed at a dentist’s before. Jo is the most wonderful dentist; caring and professional; excellent at explaining and advising. I was initially an extremely nervous and reluctant patient but I almost look forward to going now! I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Without any doubt whatever I can say that Jo Giddy is the finest and most professional dental surgeon I have experienced. She has undertaken extensive dental work for me which has overwhelmingly improved my sense of well-being.

I have avoided dentists all my life as I’m highly sensitive and have always been petrified. It wasn’t until my 73rd year that, luckily, I encountered Jo Giddy at Hygeia. Her compassion, patience and empathy are priceless and her work on my teeth is excellent. I’m completely delighted and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jo to anyone.

I am truly fortunate to have found Hygeia Dental Practice. Deep rooted fear of dentists had prevented me from visiting a dentist for years. Coming here has truly been the best decision I could have made and I am the happiest I have felt in years. All thanks to Jo and her staff at Hygeia. I would recommend this practice very highly.

I’ve been a patient of Jo’s for many years and would wholeheartedly
recommend her, and her team, to everyone.

The best decision I have made was to put my faith in Hygeia.  Gave me the most thorough mouth examination I have ever had.  Unbelievable service!  You will never find a better dentist in the South West.  I cannot recommend this practice enough.

“You are a credit to your profession…

we think you are a brilliant dentist!”

“I would not consider going anywhere else.

It is an outstanding practice.”

“I think it is not like going to the dentist. And that is a huge compliment. Highly professional and warm, friendly, welcoming and reassuring. Totally respectful and the commitment to prevention and painless treatment is superbly carried out in practice on every visit.”

“The wonderful Jo and her team have restored my faith in dentistry, and believe me, I’ve had some horrible experiences in the past.  Appointments at Hygeia hold no fear or dread for me whatever, I know I am always in safe hands, and have found there only kindness and excellent care.”

“Best dentist I have ever had.

Actually cares about their clients and the state of their teeth!”

“This practice has challenged my assumptions about what dental treatment can be.

I’m not sure that I can quite say I look forward to the dentist, but this is as close as it can get!”

“Brilliant: friendly; incredibly helpful; good advice. It’s fantastic that I can have treatment without painkillers as Jo is so gentle.

I am so happy to have this practice and really appreciate you. Thank you so much.”

“I’d happily recommend
Jo to anyone!

She’s the most considerate
and gentle dentist
I’ve ever had.”

“Jo is amazing – I have complete confidence in her. Everything that is going to happen is discussed and all different options explained. I feel comfortable asking anything I need to know. Everyone is kind and friendly and welcoming and go out of their way to give you what you want.”

“Jo and staff are brilliant at making me feel at ease and calming me down.

You have helped me come to terms with visiting the dentist and now it’s not such a big deal!!”

“Excellent – I was in so much pain last weekend and I was really grateful to be attended to especially on a Sunday, giving up her time to see me.

There’s not many people that would do that.”

“I am always most grateful for Jo’s wonderful work and also for the helpfulness of Louise and Jo’s dental nurse.

If [my] words encourage others to try the surgery, it would be splendid.”

“Excellent. Really comfortable waiting room (nice little library) & very impressed with your dentistry (artistry!)

Really pleased to have found you (just wish I’d done so earlier…)”

“I must say there is nothing you need to change as it is a wonderful dental practice.

The only thing I would say is:
don’t ever leave!
Thank you.”

“Many thanks for your
prompt and excellent care
of my son.

I really felt he was in
safe hands with you….”

“I am impressed at the
thoroughness and the expertise
with which the treatment
is carried out…

And the front office is polite
and helpful at all times.”

“Thank you for fitting my
new crowns. I am thrilled
to bits with them.

You really are an excellent
dentist and lovely person.
Thanks again.”

“I’ve always been treated
with sensitivity and caring.

It’s the best dental practice
I’ve ever visited.”
