Smithfield Dental: Reviews
Positive experience: I was seen by dentist that was absolutely brilliant. Did a good review and was very informative. Unfortunately though, my experience with front of house was not so great. Young receptionist very blunt and couldn’t manage a smile or decent greeting. Dentist informed me that my treatment plan was sent to this young lady and she could tell me cost once private health subtracted with coding. Upon leaving, same cold rude interaction and informed me to go contact my Private Health provider and do it myself. Upon that, I paid my bill and left without making future booking to commence treatment. I’ll happily take my business elsewhere. Sad due to dentist being very polite and respectful.
Fantastic experience: Best Dentist Ever. Thanks Dr. David. My daughter was really happy of her dental experience.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic fitted me in for an emergency & Jordon & her nurse we’re amazing

Fantastic experience: Right on time , courteous and caring , explained each step , didn't feel a thing , I'll be back .
Fantastic experience: We were traveling and had a little emergency. The reception staff was super kind and slotted us in. The dentist was really professional and helped solve the immediate issue and set up an orthodontist meeting for us in Melbourne. Facilities were great
Fantastic experience: I have been to many dentists in Korea and Australia, but Dr.David by far the best. He always gave me several options and explains things kindly. He works hard to made things better, not just for the present. He is a great doctor with both skill and kindness. Only one thing I have a concern, he is a popular doctor, so it is not easy to make an appointment. I highly recommend Dr. David.
Fantastic experience: Extremely friendly and knowledgeable doctor who made me feel comfortable and at ease about the future dental work he is intending to perform.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Meglin was very positive & made me feel comfortable. I am looking at getting implants placed in my top teeth
Fantastic experience: I’m currently on holidays here in Cairns, and unfortunately had an issue with one of my veneers falling out, leaving me with extreme sensitivity and difficulty eating and drinking. I googled nearby dentists and was lucky enough to find this clinic! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by the lovely receptionist and felt completely at ease. I was fortunate to be treated by Sophie, who was absolutely fantastic! She was professional, gentle, and genuinely caring; especially knowing how nervous I was about seeing a new dentist. I am so grateful they were able to fit me into their schedule, and I truly appreciate Sophie’s dedication and expertise. She went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and well looked after. I honestly can’t thank her enough! Highly recommend this clinic to anyone needing dental care in Cairns, you’ll be in safe hands!

Fantastic experience: I had an appointment with Dr. Kim. he was such a calm and nice person. usually in other dentist practice I felt rushed and it always felt like they wanted to finish quickly but David really took his time with me even though I had so many questions. and I explained to him my situation and my worries and he gave me perfect solutions for all my problems. He was calm and very friendly person!! and Luckily I didn't need any treatment but I can assume that he would do any type of surgery or treatment painlessly! 10/10 recomend him!!

Fantastic experience: I haven’t sat in a dentists chair for a while, no surprises here! But I had to venture back in and there’s a bunch of new faces. I met Dr David and he put me at ease immediately. All the old faces have moved on but no matter, to work here they all have to be good and this was the case with David. His knowledge was immense and he explained options that I understood.

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming and made to feel relaxed. Very thorough and professional.
Fantastic experience: Great dentist and staff. Very friendly. Easy to communicate with.
Fantastic experience: You find a good Dentistry you stick to them. Over 32+yrs I've been going to this practice. Before being recommended by a friend my teeth/gums were near rotting in my mouth. Bouts of sickness due to my teeth, along with my own method of releasing abscesses (wouldn't recommend it) followed by self extractions over 20+yrs led me there. The only 2 previous dentist/s visits I'd had over that time, well, the 2nd affirmed the 1st, some people shouldn't be dentists, those 2 (different dentists) were godawful painful, rough as guts & you just want to come up swinging while they're messing around in your mouth while you're laying there vulnerable, they can put one off dentists for life. Used to be petrified at the thought of going to a dentist until I found SmithfieldDental, something about the owner/dentist there, picks good staff, no matter the changes, being dentist, dental assistant or reception, they're world class. They're not a "stamp", "pay", "next please", "chingching$", "move along" clinic, they take the time to look after their patients. Last visit was today, the 5th different dentist I've had there (majority of decades was 1 & inbetween others), all outstanding, I don't take a 5hrs return trip to Cairns when there's dentists 40mins away for fun, I go there because I found a good clinic that I know master's the dentistry & since finding them I go very regularly. If like me you have a love/hate relationship when it comes to dentists, give them a try, I know others that wouldn't go anywhere else either. Long rave review, but they're worth the visit, they'll look after your dental/gum issues & I believe, like me, you'll walk away wondering why you were so worried about going to the tooth doc.
Fantastic experience: David is amazingly gentle and careful. Thorough++ thank you
Fantastic experience: Dr Leeanne and Dental Assistant Tilly resolved, with genuine care for my concerns, an unexpected and unfamiliar dental issue. Receptionist Teigan facilitated an 'ASAP' appointment while calming my apprehension and Receptionist Tamara, as always, took the time to ensure that I was happy with the experience. Thank you all. So appreciated Smithfield Dental.
Fantastic experience: I smashed my chin and my filling cracked. I was at the dentist within an hour of the accident. Dr. Sophie was lovely and fixed my tooth quickly. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service. I brought my 4years old son and Dr George was amazing. Would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Was able to get seen within a days notice, the staff were all lovely and polite.
Fantastic experience: Squeezed me in on a Friday with an infection. Dr David was very kind and thorough. Will definitely be back. Thanks so much.
Fantastic experience: Smithfield Dental comes highly recommended by me! The dentist I saw, Dr David, was thorough and took the time to explain what was happening for me. Dr David was very professional and knowledgeable in his field of dentistry. It was a pleasant experience for me; someone who doesn’t enjoy visiting the dentist.
Fantastic experience: Have been going to Smithfield Dental for many years and i trust no other. They are truly a caring, understanding and brilliant dentistry practice. I am not a fan of dentist and have experienced poor dental care before in another practice. But all the team at Smithfield dental are fantastic. Its not just the dental treatment and dental care, but the reassurance in good hands is a massive thing too as far as im concerned. Very highly recommended. - Mark
Fantastic experience: I called this morning and I was booked in for an appointment due to my situation even though I did get seen and attempted to remove my tooth but was not meant to happen today I guess. All staff are great and professional. I will see you all again soon
Thank you for the kind review Darnell.
Fantastic experience: Always have a great experience with David Kim, calming personality and very thorough. Makes the dentist not as scary!
Fantastic experience: I’ve had the best experience at Smithfield Dental. Dr. David Kim provides amazing patient care. I also want to say a very special thank you to Laurie for helping me change my appointment times and going the extra mile to help me. :)
Negative experience: Charged full price for only half of the work intended due to dentist running late. Top teeth only cleaned. Not happy.
Fantastic experience: Everyone knows the feeling you get when you’re dealing with professionals that’s the feeling I had today very impressed and grateful
Fantastic experience: Had a broken front tooth on Friday so rocked up at 8am Monday, got a late morning appt. Service great and tooth fixed, and all is well. Very accomodating. Also a calming beach image when rising from the chair.

Hello Gregory, Thank you for this very kind review. We look forward seeing you at your next visit with us. Thank you from Team Smithfield Dental
Fantastic experience: I needed emergency treatment due to a losing half a front tooth. I was thinking I’d have to cancel work for the rest of the week as I couldn’t get an appointment with my usual dentist. It would have been terrible to have to leave the house in the state I was in. Thankfully, I was able to see a dentist at this practice within an hour or so of me calling. Everything about this surgery is excellent. The dentist was lovely, her nurse was great, the admin staff was quick and efficient. The dental work I received is excellent and reasonably priced. I definitely recommend this surgery to anyone seeking a new dentist or needing simple emergency treatment.
Bree, Thank you for your kind words, From the Smithfield Dental Team

Thank you Kirsty, we appreciate your time to review Smithfield Dental. Kind regards Team Smithfield Dental.
Fantastic experience: I am very thankful for the service provided to me by Smithfield Dental when I recently broke my front tooth - from the first phone call to ask if I could get in to see a Dentist through to the same day actual work done they were nothing more than amazing. I am a nervous patient at the best of times but Dr David was very good at his job and I am more than happy with the end result. Thank you so much
The team at Smithfield Dental greatly appreciate your words. Thank you for this very kind review Elizabeth. We look forward seeing you at your next visit with us.
Fantastic experience: Travelling around Oz and managed to get an appointment with Dr David for an emergency extraction. All staff very pleasant and easy to deal with. Dr David took his time to fully explain his diagnosis and treatment. Although I was in a lot of pain due to infection, he was as gentle as possible in the circumstances and ensured I was comfortable before continuing each part of the process. I would highly recommend this practice. 5 stars!

Hi Wanda, Thank you for your kind words, from Team Smithfield Dental.
Fantastic experience: Dr Sophie performed my 2 hour treatment. My experience was excellent with her calm, gentle and confident approach. My usual dentist anxiety was minimal because I felt I was in good hands. All the staff including the dental nurse Holly and the receptionist were friendly and competent.
From Team Smithfield Dental, thank you, Jacqueline for you lovely review and keep smiling with your beautiful teeth.
Fantastic experience: I could not rate my experience higher. Having 30+ months of orthodontics as a kid left me unreasonably terrified of dentists, so it wasn't until I had much of my molar in my fingers some thirteen years later that I reluctantly went to see one. Dr. David Kim has crowned that tooth, filled as required and cleaned all others, and provided a nightguard. The work Dr. David and the hygiene team have done has been of great quality and I feel a confidence about my teeth long-term that I didn't before. The chairside manner of Dr. David is superb, the information provided is well-considered and feels genuine, and the equipment he and the team are using is modern and fast. Reception have always been very helpful and welcoming for me. I don't worry about attending now, eight appointments later. Just brilliant.
