Higgins Dental: Reviews
Fantastic experience: So unbelievably professional! Would highly recommend Chris Phillips and his team at Higgins Dental Surgery. They have all the best technology & are extremely thorough!
Fantastic experience: I was made to feel like I mattered. Dentist is something of a phobia of mine so I was very thankful for the attention I received
Fantastic experience: I had a fantastic experience at this clinic. The receptionist was friendly and welcoming, which set a great tone from the start. I saw Dr. Emma Langworthy, and she was absolutely amazing, she kept me informed at every step. She was professional, friendly, and gave excellent advice. Dr. Emma has a calming presence, which is especially reasurring if you're nervous about needles! The whole visit went smoothly, and I can't fault them. I will definately recommend this dental clinic to family and friends.
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff and professional approach
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and professional staff. The pricing is fair and upfront which is a nice experience. I was recommended by someone to give this place a go after I experienced price gouging elsewhere. I was very happy with the service and pricing. Thank you Higgins Dental.
Fantastic experience: An excellent practice. The receptionists are friendly, helpful and informed. I saw Dr Grace and she and her team made me relaxed and calm. She explained everything thoroughly and gave lots of information. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: My son was so anxious about going to the Dentist. Dr Phillips was amazing and made him feel very comfortable and explained everything to him as he went. I highly recommend Higgins Dental.
Negative experience: I was requiring a very small, basic filling which the Higgins practice facilitated through an opening available on the day I rang .....for which I was thankful. I did have a discrepancy with the pricing regimen applied to my situation which I bought to the owner/ manager of the business (Chris). His manner was quite condescending, referring to myconcern as essentially ignorant, saying that my issue may lay in that I have not in my 59 yrs of experience had this level of dental care. The reality is, his application of a fee for an oral examination was unnecessary as I provided the information having had a full comprehensive investigation only weeks earlier....I reiterated this to the dentist saying there was nothing of sensitivity. They took a X ray of tooth which I had no objection to , so as to verify depth and extent of problem. My issue was with a fee charged that had no basis nor cause. Be aware of disproportionate pricing within the context of your teeth work if you choose to go there. This will most certainly be my last

Fantastic experience: First time attending this dentist surgery and it was a fantastic experience - as far as fantastic goes for a trip to the dentist. I was acknowledged as soon as I entered. I was treated kindly. After my teeth were examined I was provided with options and was even offered a second opinion by the Senior Dentist. They were empathetic and non judgemental. Following my tooth extraction, the next day I was given a check up phone call and when I had to go back I was given a prompt appointment the following day. Great service all round

Thank you for caring for my family especially in our desperate times of dental needs.
Fantastic experience: I am 79 years of age. Normally, I have to be dragged to the dentist. But not Higgins Dental! The whole atmosphere and attitude of the surgery is patient friendly and efficient. Got to go back next week; no stress!

Fantastic experience: I visited Higgins Dental yesterday and was treated by Dr. Chris. I came in with severe tooth pain, and Dr. Chris quickly discovered my tooth needed to come out. It was honestly the most pleasant, painfree dentist experience I've had. Dr. Chris was professional, kind, fast working & highly experienced. I felt at ease and complete trust in him immediately. I highly recommend Higgins Dental. Thank you so much for taking away my pain.
Fantastic experience: Thank you Dr Chris for seeing me at short notice and providing an excellent level of service. Very friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Best dentist ever. Recommend Chris to anyone. Been to a few dentists in my day. Never been happier.
Fantastic experience: I went for a 2nd opinion on an expensive dental procedure that had been quoted to me elsewhere and so glad I did because Dr.Chris walked me through other options and discussed the option best suited to me, and it was certainly preferable to the other quoted procedure that I felt was being pushed on me. And, so good with children, my family are impressed with how well he interacts with the young ones, even to putting cartoons on the screen for their amusement. I am very happy with the care and consideration at Higgins Dental.
Fantastic experience: I received the upmost friendly and very informative service from all staff. I asked a lot of questions and everyone of those questions were answered truthfully with my budget in mind. I finally found my long term dentist and will definitely recommend them to everyone. Great job guys!
Fantastic experience: Higgins Dental team, are professional, calm and capable. I had been putting off necessary dental work for years, until it couldn't be avoided any longer. A broken wisdom tooth that needed immediate extraction and still the process was fast, painless and left me wondering why I'd even been worried about it for so long!
Fantastic experience: Very professional service and a calm atmosphere. I'm very pleased with the procedure.
Fantastic experience: Both Erin and Chris are so friendly and personable. They make the daunting process of dental work much more pleasant. I had a lot of dental work required, but it's been broken down into sizeable chunks, which is much less overwhelming. When you walk into the surgery, you are met with Maddy's welcoming smile and friendly demeanour. I often recommend this surgery to family and friends. Thanks to the team for everything they do.
Fantastic experience: Absolute professionals who care about their patients and don't charge like a wounded bull. Extremely satisfied with the service Doctors Chris and Erin provide and their lovely dental assistants and front desk staff. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Dr Chris's rapport with my young son was amazing. He was very patient and fun. I am so grateful for such a positive dental experience.
Fantastic experience: The professionalism and friendliness of Dr Erin and the team at Higgins Dental is outstanding. I have recently had composite veneers done at Higgins dental and I couldn’t be happier with the service and results. The procedure and after care from Dr Erin was first class. Our whole family will now be regulars at Higgins Dental!
Fantastic experience: I badly cracked and shattered a tooth travelling from New Zealand to Australia and thought the wedding I was to attend and holiday would be ruined. I was amazed and incredibly grateful Higgins could squeeze me in and sort the emergency. I doubt I would have been treated as quickly back home . Erin was professional friendly and capable and did an excellent job. She emailed me a detailed report and photos to show my dentist back home exactly as she said she would. She saved my holiday in Noosaville . 5 stars all round . Many thanks.
Fantastic experience: Great experience for my sons first trip to the dentist. Dr Christopher explained everything very well to my son and my son was giggling through the whole thing. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I was referred to Higgins Dental by a good friend and they were amazing to say the least. I saw Dr Erin for a consult regarding a very tedious treatment especially because I can be a bit picky. She was so understanding and extremely patient with me throughout the entire process and I could not be any happier with the outcome. Can’t recommend Higgins Dental more if I tried. Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Chris is a Mastermind with those dental tools with the delicate touch of an angel. I’ve never been more comfortable seeing a dentist, he’s a very kind and compassionate guy, truly thankful I know him and have access to his services. (He reconstructed my 4 front teeth and you wouldn’t know how bad they were when I broke them skateboarding)
Fantastic experience: I was looking for a dentist and saw this clinic had opened. I am so happy I booked in, all the staff are wonderful, beautiful clinic and I’m very happy with my treatment. Even the needle wasn’t bad!
Fantastic experience: I have never seen my kids giggle so much - especially not during a visit to the dentist! Thank you all so much for making our visit enjoyable. You went above and beyond. We are so lucky to have found you so soon after you've opened!
Fantastic experience: Great experience at Higgins Dental today. Dr Christopher Phillips is super friendly and took the time to answer my questions. All staff in the clinic were welcoming.
