Our practice started at 1 Station Street in 1946 with Gordon Moat. When he retired in 1963, Colin Bullock took over and was joined by Robert Charter and Tom Sholl.
They built North Street Dental Practice in 1967 on its current site. It was the first purpose built dental surgery with a car park in the South of England.
They were later joined by Duncan Brown. All the Partners had qualified from Guys Hospital, making it a ‘Guy’s Team’.
The original Partners worked at North Street until their retirement and personally chose their successors who would continue to maintain the strong traditions and values held by the Practice for the patients.
The succeeding Partners were:
Gary Burgess, Andrew Brown, Seema Yousef, Martin Lunn, Jolanta Skolmowska, Paul Redstone.
In August 2022 the partners decided to take a step back from ownership so they could concentrate on their dentistry, or take the opportunity to retire. North Street Dental is now proud to be part of the Portman Dentex group. Portman is the largest and fastest growing privately focused dental group in the UK. As part of the Portman group, we share the same single vision: a passion to treat patients as we would like to be treated ourselves.
The Portman ethos centres on putting you first. From the warmest of welcomes to the most sophisticated equipment, we make sure you always enjoy the highest standard of care with us. Every part of your experience has been carefully considered, so you can rest assured that you will always be well-informed, comfortable, and calm with us.
The people: Our dentists are well respected, highly trained and experienced clinicians, supported by a friendly, caring practice team. Portman continually invests in our people, ensuring you receive truly excellent care from the waiting room to the clinic.
The place: From state of the art dental technology, giving you access to the latest procedures and techniques, to internet access and complimentary drinks in our relaxing waiting room, we put you at the heart of everything we do.
The care: Portman always ensures you receive an excellent standard of care. From appointments that fit around your life, to simple finance plans to help you stay on top of your dental health. And whether we’re discussing finance or treatment, we talk to you as we’d like to be talked to: in plain English.
