Educational in Sevenoaks

“Long review warning. But if you are like me and scared of the dentist but also want to ensure you have the best care, this is worth the read. My original dentist stopped practising in the UK. I was recommended here by a place that was recommended by my partner. Origionally I called thinking I had a huge cavity in a tooth, Rose had me on the phone with Karim who is the head dentist, now Karim had me booked in a few hours later, I turned up, he looked at it and I'd chipped a filling and was just being a little dramatic. He didn't charge me for this and I didn't know him before. Also, in fairness, I was awful on my first visit. But Karim respected my wishes but also did his job by saying I needed a checkup, and he said he doesn't care where I do this, but I should do this. Showing me he only cares about giving a good service. There was no pressure to book in again. He also proved me wrong about my own teeth, I was told I had a root canal on a tooth, he looked and said he wasn't confident in this statement and offered to take an xray and confirm. Needless to say, I was told incorrectly. I couldn't refute an x-ray. Further building my trust in his integrity and skills. The next day I booked in for a check up and was booked in with Dr Peyman, when I arrived for this appointment Dr Peyman done a full examination and took xrays, he found a few cavities and was honest about their severity, showing me the xrays and detailing the areas of concern showing me how to read my own xrays. He told me that I needed to improve my brushing, and as before I was given proof, he scrapped some plaque off my tooth and showed me, and used the mirror to show me other areas. There was a small cavity found. One he couldn't do anything with, it may go away or stay the same it's very small, I asked if it could just be drilled and filled. As this wouldn't benefit me, Dr. Peyman said he wouldn't be happy to do so. Once again, showing this isn't about money. I was recommended to use a spesific mouthwash to aid in my issues. So I booked in with Lou the Hygienist, Lou asked me a lot of questions (be honest, she'll know if you're not forthcoming) she cleaned up my teeth and explained what I was doing wrong, told me and most importantly showed me how to rectify these issues, she made a few recommendations that I buy a specific brush and what toothpaste will suit my needs the best, she then gave me a way to get a discount on the aforementioned brush which was really nice. I asked really silly questions, and the answers were very respectful and honest. There are very few hygienist that will do this for you, before I was told buy an electric toothbrush and that was all. This time I was shown the correct techniques. Today, writing this review, I have been in to have about 80% of my fillings done with DR Peyman. Not even a joke here. I know the fillings were done. I could see it happening and hear the drill on my teeth. But I can't find them with my tongue like the others I've had done. He's a perfectionist. I couldn't do the last one. I was a touch fatigued, and when I asked to stop, we did. Constantly checking, I was ok. When I said I could feel the cold on my tooth, I was given more anaesthetic as it was wearing off. I am booked in again to do the final one. Is here the cheapest? Likely not, but the quality of the work to me, I feel like the quality of the work has been outstanding. I started off as super nervous. Everyone was there to help me and I've now become really comfortable with them. The two dental nurses I have met are Pria ( I hope I have spelt her name correctly) and Kelly, and both of them are lovely and very good at their jobs. The whole team plays their part amazingly. They'll be 100% honest with you and supply you with the proof you need to support their statements. In short 5 stars is not enough. If you want very good work done on your teeth, then go and see them. I'm a private patient and I do not regret choosing these guys. I hope the team never changes. They are so good I travel from Wimbeldon to see them.”

“Great wine shop. Good quality wines available. Brunello de montalcino is excellent. Everyday wines very good too. The gaillac they sell is very good.”

“I registered with Bupa after a few years of not having a dentist and I’m happy to say I had a great experience with them. The dentist was amazing, friendly and making me feel completely at ease. The reception staff were also very friendly and welcoming. I’m very glad that I chose Bupa Sevenoaks and would recommend them to anyone.”

“Great facilities. Very nice and helpful staff specially Andrew DM”

“We have been going to Gymboree Sevenoaks for the past 2 years. It is a fantastic place and the staff make you and the children feel at ease very quickly. The activities are well prepared and thought through. There is a variety of activities and every week there is a different theme. We have seen a notable improvement in our little ones' development. We also recently decided to organise a bday party. We are EXTREMELY happy we made this choice. I don't think we could have chosen a better place and staff. All guests left really satisfied and most importantly our little one with a big smile on their face. Thank you Gymboree team!”

“Fantastic school, I loved it; the tour, the exams and everything, best IB school, but also fairly complex to pass”

“My daughter started with Forest Kindergarten in September and has truly loved every day that she is there! She has made some really wonderful connections with the other kids and the staff. The staff are brilliant with the kids, and the communication is fantastic. I love getting the daily updates and watching my daughter thrive day on day. If you're exploring forest schools for your child, I highly recommend this one.”

“Lovely place to take a baby, toddler and pre-school child!”

“From our very first session Jan has been made Arlo feel welcome and she is brilliant at teaching not only the different sports but also how to listen and follow instructions and also to have fun! Arlo’s confidence has grown so much since he joined this class. He is excited each week and can’t wait to put on his Tots in Sports kit :)”

“My son Freddie has just 'graduated' after 2 years at playball. He has loved every class and talks about coach michelle and 'sports club' all the time at home. Our little girl will be starting when she is 2 and Freddie will attend the holiday clubs for his playball fix! Cannot reccomend enough xx”

“I started training with Sid at Alpha Krav Maga in London Bridge in 2019, having already spent seven years training under another Urban Krav Maga instructor. From day one, I knew this system worked—especially since I’ve had to use it in real-life situations—but Sid’s approach took my skills to a whole new level. His teaching style is fantastic for kinesthetic learners who need hands-on practice to build muscle memory, as well as for visual learners who benefit from observing and repeating techniques. What sets Sid’s classes apart is the emphasis on real-world application. Urban Krav Maga focuses on handling threats under pressure—an aspect often missing in more traditional martial arts like BJJ, Muay Thai, or Boxing. With Sid, you won’t just drill techniques; you’ll experience realistic scenarios and “unusual” exercises designed to simulate the chaos of an actual confrontation. These drills really sharpen your reflexes and mindset. On top of that, the atmosphere at Alpha Urban Krav Maga is supportive and fun. Sid manages to strike the perfect balance between serious training and enjoying the process. If you’re looking for practical self-defense, a highly skilled instructor, and a welcoming environment, I can’t recommend Alpha Krav Maga enough. Be prepared to push your limits, learn effective techniques, and share a few laughs along the way!”

All staff our very supportive in getting the best out of the children and on visiting their shows, we as the audience can see a really good bond between the children and teachers. they all show each other great support.”

“Our son has been so happy at the Children's Workshop, he has really developed immensely under the guidance of those who work there. We have been so proud of his confidence and relationship building, the settings and activities are vast. He is now set up perfectly for primary school.”
