Fantastic experience: New to Otahuhu dental care. Definitely recommend.

Yes Doctor Rajeev was the one who got booked in for my tooth extraction would never recommend
Hey Lady You got the wrong dentist
Fantastic experience: I was in need of a tooth extraction, pain levels were on the rise. I rang Otahuhu Dental care,and within 2 hours, my tooth was extracted. The owner of the business ,a dentist of 20 years, was friendly and thorough. The cost was very reasonable. I am happy with the overall care and service I received.
Thanks Bianca it's encouraging patients like you who make our day
Fantastic experience: After many refusals from other dentist who weren’t able to see my dad right away, Otahuhu dental took him in and treated him right away. The dentist and staff were every thorough and made sure we were aware of costs and treatment plans. They kept us informed and were sufficient in their delivery of service. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience at Otahuhu Dental Care. The team is incredibly professional, friendly, and genuinely cares about patient comfort. From the reception staff to the dentists, everyone made me feel welcome and well-informed. The clinic is clean and well-equipped, and they took the time to explain all my treatment options clearly. I felt confident and looked after throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for reliable and compassionate dental care in South Auckland, I’d definitely recommend Otahuhu Dental Care!
Negative experience: Poor service .. waste of my money . My wife was your patient and you told her for surgery for wisdom tooth but she done the wisdom extraction easily with other doctor without surgery. Not recommended to anyone. I wasted $100
You are not even our patient. Go take your frustration out elsewhere Frusto

Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for quite a few years now. My husband has been coming for decades. Dr Nagpal is hardworking, very experienced, and compassionate. He will often call later to see how I am going after a procedure. The staff are friendly and kind. Patient comfort is a priority for this team. Prices are very reasonable and affordable compared to other dentists I've been to in the past.

Fantastic experience: Great Team with warm Pacific Hospitality.

Negative experience: Receptionist was nice but the second person I spoke to was just rude. I would not recommend this place to my family, friends or enemies.
Fantastic experience: Just had a filling done here and was painless! Dr Rajeev was awesome. He made me feel comfortable and was very informative. I recommend coming here
Thanks Arielle for such a nice review. You're always welcome at Otahuhu Dental Care
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fabulous doing near painless dental treatment at very reasonable prices
Negative experience: Worst experience at a dentist ever.
Negative experience: DO NOT USE these guys!! Got dentures done here. No proper consultation everything was rushed. He advised a 4 tooth denture but it came back as a 3 teeth denture the teeth were too small and too short. He wanted to file down my real teeth to match the substandard denture. Hes an incompetent butcher! He was always in and out dealing with other patients leaving his assistant with limited English and no dental qualifications to answer my questions! Always speaking their own language even when gesturing towards me or my dentures. Worst dentist I've ever come across in all my 53 years!
Fantastic experience: Trustworthy service, thanks guys for the great service, you deserve the 5 stars
Negative experience: My husband had a tooth extracted today and his mouth is swollen, and his jaw is still extremely sore, 8 hours later. (Despite pain relief he got from the chemist). My husband said they not only made him extremely uncomfortable while he was there, they also didn’t numb his mouth enough so he couldn’t feel the extraction (they had to give him more than 3 doses. A very costly procedure and very unprofessional practise we will not be recommending.
Fantastic experience: Had a tooth feeling done. Good customer service by the staffs.Very great service by doctor Rajiv. He takes his time and cares about the patient. I will highly recomend people to have their dental services done here
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service and friendly staff..Expectations were exceeded with in terms of facility and care..dental treatment at a very reasonably affordable price..!!
Negative experience: So rude, unsure of their own pricing. ridiculous service .
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. Easy to set appointment, friendly, professional Dentist and assistants. Godbless!
Fantastic experience: Most friendly, kind and caring dentist I’ve ever been to! Would 100% recommend !! Such good value for money too
Negative experience: I ask if how they would sell case for Dench to keep in of night time and just because I got from some were and they not any cases in they will not give me a case
we don't have a patient by this name and this incident never happened
Negative experience: dentist away for about 10mins during 30mins treatment, had teeth cleaning there, not clean thoroughly. I asked the owner what the black thing between my teeth is, he said that was just gap between my teeth, bullsh*t, LOL, the dentist was nice tho he was away for that much time
Fantastic experience: Extremely pleased to find this dental practice. Dr.Rajeev listens to patients and is sensitive to their needs . Very professional and friendly . Strongly recommended. Great advice and always gentle and attentive .
Negative experience: Absolute waste of my time. No help at all. I sat on the chair for less than 5 minutes and the scheming dentist wanted $30.00 after refusing me treatment because the incompetent staff led me to believe a payment arrangement could be made. The dentist then said he would charge me nothing for a prescription only to change his mind 30 seconds later.
This scheming character came in for a dental extraction without a dime in his pocket and expects treatment to be immediately then wants to pay for it later on in bits and pieces. Some people feel so entitled; try doing this at Coundown or Pak n Save. Nothing is free in this world, even our regular patients pay for prescriptions.
Fantastic experience: I have been visiting Otahuhu Dental for 8+ years and have found the services provided of top notch. Dr Rajeev is very knowledgeable and professional. He knows the desnitisty industry, it's trends well and have always provided well informed solutions to my needs. I highly recommend this establishment to everyone.
Fantastic experience: Very experienced dentist. Affordable price. Best in New zealand.
Negative experience: Dentist was answering his mobile talking to other people while working on my filling. His skills and professionalism was questionable I will never go back there. Poor job
there is no patient by this name on the practice database
Fantastic experience: Very experienced dentist! Rajeev knows the ins and outs of dentistry and can give you sound advice on what treatment is needed if any. He is also friendly and caring a must for any patient.
Negative experience: Inexcuseably incompetent. Dentist drilled the wrong tooth which had no decay on it, and when I asked him to do the correct tooth, he filled it without removing the decay first (which was found by another dentist). He also neglected to file it down so it was sticking out as an awkward lump. On redoing the tooth he left it in pain and possibly needing a root canal now. I've had several teeth done by him and they've all had issues where I've had to go back, and he's cancelled on me twice without notice and it's ended up very costly, and costly to get them redone by a professional. He also charged me to get a filling redone by him, when it broke a few weeks later. It is better to get your teeth done by a professional, because once someone just starts drilling willy nilly into your teeth, especially healthy teeth, they're not going to grow back.
Fantastic experience: quality dentistry at amazing prices. great dentist, 0 % pain during treatment.
