Saw the hygienist today; very happy with her work. She is kind and gentle and did a very thorough job. The most comfortable hygienist appointment I've had! Thank you.

This was my first time going to a hygienist. Laura was so friendly and welcoming which made me feel so relaxed. Laura was extremely thorough, talked me through everything that she was doing, gave me good advice. I left very happy and with a noticeable difference to my teeth :)

Amazing as always! Highly recommend. Always receive a lovely welcome as you arrive and great care is taken with any treatments received. Always a personable experience. Been here now for 30 years and would never move practice.

Florence provides excellent dental care. Her cleanings are thorough, and she explains procedures clearly. Florence's friendly and professional demeanor makes each visit a positive experience. Highly recommended

Always highly professional, friendly and efficient across the practice, from the reception staff to the dental / dental hygiene staff. Jack is my dentist and he is excellent. We even drive for an hour from east Ipswich to get there!

Creffield Lodge is a dentist practice I like visiting! The staff are so welcoming, making you feel at ease immediately. Any treatment needed is clearly explained and answers to any questions are readily forthcoming. It's smiles all round for me, as thanks to Jack Acorn my teeth are now straighter than I ever thought they could be!

I saw the dental hygienist today and as usual I had a superb experience. The staff are very professional friendly and supportive . She answered all of my questions and offered health advice at the end of my appointment, together with a review of my most recent X rays. I can definitely recommend this practice and now my son and grandson are also patients here.

Jack is by far the best dentist I have ever visited. He is highly professional, reassuring, and efficient, without any pushy sales tactics—you can tell he genuinely cares about what’s best for you and your dental health. I’m extremely happy with Jack as my dentist and will continue to return!

Creffield Lodge is an amazing dental practice. I have been a patient here for over 20 years and always had the most wonderful, caring service from all members of staff. Rob is an excellent dentist, extremely professional, patient and thorough, and his dental assistant Marie is lovely and equally good at her job. They're a great team! I love coming to this practice and I recommend them 100%.

I never wait long or at all once I have arrived. Receptionists are friendly polite and professional and my dentist Jack Acorn is always welcoming, professional and amazing with his work. My teeth are soon to be perfectly straight and all thanks to him, his patients and his knowledge. I would recommend 100%.

I had an amazing experience. I called in this morning and had an emergency appointment booked in for 4 hours later where I got my wisdom tooth removed. It had been causing me intense pain for about a week but the whole process took 10 minutes. The dentist was lovely and made me feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend for a nervous patient

I have spent lots of money on trying to save my teeth and I might of well thrown my money away. I was recommended creffield dentist and I’m so pleased I went. I had a consultation and it wasn’t cheap but not overpriced for the amount of work I’ve needed. I listened to the dentist and put my trust in his expertise. The dental nurse was so reassuring because I am very nervous patient. I’m about half way though and I’m buzzing with just how happy I am.

I had a fantastic experience with Hygienist Laura during my recent cleaning. She was incredibly gentle, thorough, and made me feel comfortable from the moment I sat in the chair. Laura explained each step, checked in often to make sure I was comfortable, and offered great tips for improving my at-home care routine. I left feeling confident in my dental health and genuinely impressed by the professionalism and kindness. Highly recommend!

I felt like I was in safe hands, I am very happy with the treatment I have been provided with. I was fortunate enough to get an emergency appointment on the day, and have since had a check up. Extremely professional set up with friendly staff and knowledgeable, competent dentists and assistants.

Excellent emergency treatment. Options clearly explained leading to root canal treatment undertaken calmly and pain free! Follow up treatment scheduled with advice on how to manage any problems in the interim period.

Jack is a brilliant dentist. I feel safe in his care regarding my teeth and gums and bones. I felt I really got my monies worth and had a very thorough examination of my teeth and mouth. He's a charming person too! I thought James Metha would be very hard to replace as he was superbrilliant too but Jack is definitely on a par! And both big Laura and Bradley (who I have been to), the hygienists are fabulous and thorough and gentle. So it's a thumbs up from me!

DR Acorn is frankly the best dentist I have ever had.. I have followed him to his new practise in Colchester where his outstanding level of skill, expertise and experience combines with a caring disposition and a mindset that always puts the patient first. Cannot recommend Creffield Lodge highly enough.

One day, My tooth suddenly broke, leaving the root intact in the gum! Went to consult Jack Acorn who has been treating my dental care at his previous dental surgery in Chelmsford. Managed to get an appointment and Jack extracted the root quickly and efficiently without much pain. He then advised me what to expect and do when I get home later. All went well. Thank you Jack.

I have always had a fear of dentists and honestly had neglected my teeth. At the age of 62 my top front teeth were very gappy and yellow to the extent that I hid my smile and my confidence too.Then a friend mentioned composite bonding and recommended Jack at Creffield. I took the plunge and made a consultation appointment.Jack listened to my concerns and did not judge me for neglecting my teeth. He explained the process of the journey I would need to go through to enable me to have composite bonding and roughly 12 weeks later the journey was complete.I can honestly say this has really given me a huge confidence boost and I can now smile happily without hiding away.Thank you Jack and all the team at Creffield. You are all wonderful xx

I have been going to Creffield Lodge for the past 48 years, exceptional customer care as always.Rob made a great job rebuilding a tooth that i thought may have been passed repairing.Well done to the whole team.Thank you

Having had a fabulous dentist for most of my years of having teeth, I was nervous when Jack took over. However on my first check up with him I explained about how painful the left side of my jaw had been for quite sometime, to the point I couldn’t concentrate. A theory and measurements taken I was given a night mouth guard. A month on and the pain has practically disappeared I am very grateful and Thankyou!

After decades of visiting dentists, the treatment that I received at Creffield Lodge Dental Practice was by far the best I've had.All the staff have been pleasant and professional and the skills and care provided by the dentists were exceptional.Each stage of the procedures was explained in as much detail as I required, and carried out painlessly!.Recommended? Most certainly.

It was my first time visiting this dental clinic and after not being with a dentist for years, Jack made me feel very comfortable and the whole experience was seamless. He was extremely professional and reassuring and dealt with the dental concerns I had. 10/10!

Manuel Andres

10:45 08 Aug 24

The contact with Dr Acorn was very pleasant. He has excellent staff with him too.However, I was not so happy being asked to sit on "the landing".It obviously helped with the efficiency of the process, but it is not a comfortable place to wait while contemplating about meeting your dentist.There were no distractions such as there are in the waiting room. I also felt unhappy about sitting beside a low bannister looking down over the stairs. A risk assessment might address my concerns.I would be quite happy to enter the dental surgery unescorted. That's what happens at my doctor's surgery. No problem.I look forward to hearing a response.

Visited today after being really anxious about going to the dentist.From the minute I plucked up the courage to make the appointment to going to the appointment I have had a lovely experience. Rob and his dental assistant made me feel at ease as soon as I walked and explained everything to me in detail . Thanks again

Always anxious about visiting the dentist and especially as I hadn’t been for 2 years. Reception staff were welcoming as always greeting me by name. First appointment with Dr Jack Acorn. He was polite, professional and reassuring as was the dental nurse and I apologise for forgetting her name.I’ll never be happy going to the dentist but because it is necessary I’m happy to go to Creffield Lodge.

No one likes going to the dentist but Creffield Lodge go out of their way to make it the best it can be. From the receptionists, to the dental nurses, and, particularly, my dentist, Rob, everyone is cheerful, welcoming, and professional. Laura, the hygienist, and her team, were gentle but vigorous. Thank you all.

Well looked after by Jack and all his dedicated staff very Happy.Crown fitted today amazing job, Jack also fine tuned the height of the new crown to get a super feel and Bite, I also met Rob and was very impressed by both him and Jack.

Jack and his team were polite, friendly and excellent in all stages of my dental experience. I received orthodontic treatment which lasted for over 3 years. Jack was fabulous with his knowledge and treatment. I now have aligned teeth with a great bite. The changes have assisted my wellbeing, looks great and I now have better sleep. All treatment was cost effective and to a high standard. I highly recommend Creffield Lodge.

Amazing visit with Rob and his lovely dental nurse, Marie today. They always look after my very anxious Mum so well. Tooth extraction was very straightforward today, fully explained every step of the way. Mum has remained very calm and is in no way dreading future visits, which says it all... Outstanding! Always a pleasure and thank you Clare for your kind words at reception. Much appreciated.
