Smile Specialists Suite: Reviews

Fantastic experience: Had such a great experience with the team at Smile Specialist Suite, especially with Ell. It’s been an anxious time, so it made such a difference to have someone so kind, caring, and helpful, who truly went above and beyond with a person-centred approach. I highly recommend them!

Gita Shonpal 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had such a great experience with Ell. She was friendly, professional, and made me feel completely at ease throughout my appointment. She checked in on my comfort. Couldn’t have asked for better care — highly recommend

Jen Aston 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I saw Dr Lizzy for lip repositioning surgery and couldn't be anymore happy with the results. I have always been self conscious of my gummy smile and exhausted all other options such as tooth crown lengthening and botox to relax the lip. The recovery was easy and only had a bit of pain the same day as surgery but it was gone by the next day. I highly recommend lip repositioning surgery to anyone who is unsure if they should take the leap. Thank you so much to Dr lizzy and her beautiful team for looking after me.

Negative experience: This place quoted me 14k for a gum graft. Luckily i got a second opinion who said that amount was insane and quoted me between 3-4k but also said I didn't even require a gum graft. I am so relieved i trusted my gut and went elsewhere. The periodontist i saw was speaking in a condescending manner and outright rude way to her lovely assistant in front of me. I felt uncomfortable the whole time. I would definitely not recommend this place.

Hello Emily. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Every dental provider will have a different treatment approach and treatment ideals which will result in different techniques cultivated buy their own past experience. I am sorry we weren't a fit for your treatment needs at this time and are pleased your have found a clinician you are comfortable with.

Stephen Gregson 2 years ago

Negative experience: After several years of treatment I am leaving after poor service and fees reaching heights almost unsustainable, left hanging and being asked to pay unreasonable fees and not followed up when seeking some basic consideration as an existing full paying client, very poor service and very disappointed

Jackie Thorogood 2 years ago

Negative experience: My husband had a referral to this business, was asked for a deposit, my husband explained that his insurance company would be covering all costs for his dental treatment and as he had to do a 6 hr round trip to go to Newcastle he was unable to front the $99 deposit. They never said to him they had cancelled his appointment due to the deposit not been paid. My husband then drove to Newcastle, left at 5am to be there at 9am and he was told he no longer had an appointment. All this business needed to do was text or email me to say this appointment had been cancelled but they did NOT. This business very unempathic to his lack of financial means, their inability to empathise and manage my husband as a new patient was appalling. I have never dealt with a business with such a lack of REAL care unless you can pay upfront. What a disgrace that you made my husband feel ashamed and embarrassed when he turned up for his appointment. You were always going to be paid for his treatment the insurance company had sent them a letter saying this. Very dissapointed and very unprofessional for NOT letting him know in writing you had cancelled his appointment, would not recommend this business

Max Lindell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Switching to Dr. Lizzy at Smile Specialists Suites was a game-changer! The comfort and professionalism are unmatched. Their expertise in periodontal treatments is impressive. A top-notch choice for periodontal care.

Stefan Mehnert 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: For someone who has a fear of the dentist, my experiences at Smile Specialists Suites have been amazing. The entire team at Smile Specialist Suite is understanding and patient. They inform and check in with you at every step of each procedure.

Laura Auditore 2 years ago

Negative experience: I'm writing this to warn others about this terrible service with extremely high costs, rude staff and judging by the other reviews I'm not on my own. Sounds like this used to be a good practice but I can assure you with my own experience and my daughters experience it was horrendous. They tell you wrong information and send you msgs almost daily for payments and really charge through the roof. My daughter just wanted a general clean and was charged $399 for the first consultation and told by the reception that she could have her teeth cleaned on the same day. On the day of the appointment she was told to come back for teeth cleaning at a cost of $1800. There were charges on there for dietary information and smoking counselling which she did not need. Also my appointment was booked for surgery and I was told I would be under full anaesthetic for the first part of the operation and then light sedation for the second part. Anaesthetic man calls me ⁵ days prior to surgery saying I don't feel comfortable putting you under as your high risk and I can't do it. My deposit was refunded and I will go elsewhere.

Rex gill ! 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a patient at Smile Specialists Suite for around 8 months now and cannot fault the service I have received. I’ve felt completely comfortable every step of the way and can’t thank the team enough for looking after me so well.

Wayne Gill 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son was referred to Smile Specialists suite by our orthodontist. Whilst they were a little more expensive than another quote we received, we’re so pleased we chose them to do the work. We were so well looked after at all times. Extremely happy.

Bill Ward 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: A very professionally run clinic with highly qualified staff attending. I had some serious issues with my teeth that were rectified with a number of appointments. Staff listened and explained every detail about the procedure prior to each appointment. Gentle and kind staff. Highly recommended.

Jenny Lantry 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very satisfied with Smile Specialist Suite for my daughters procedure. The care & dedication we received as patient & (carer of patient) was wonderful, that was settling prior, during & post operation! Would thoroughly recommend Dr Lizzy & her amazing team at Smile Specialist Suite!

Anne Curtis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very professional and caring team. I was anxious about my treatment but have been reassured with each visit and the team have been happy to answer my many questions with honesty. I am happy with the outcome of my treatment.

Julianne Radley 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have found all members of the Smiles Specialist Suite team to be thoroughly professional, caring and approachable. They have thoroughly answered my questions or concerns around the plan for both non- surgical and surgical treatments I have undergone. Follow up care has also been excellent. I was initially referred as I needed a peridontist who offered an IV sedation option. The anaesthetist was also excellent, attentive and caring.

jasmyn wall 2 years ago

Negative experience: Horrible experience, drove over 2 hrs for a consultation that cost me $400 for them to tell me all I needed was a general clean, was then quoted $1900 for a clean and “advice” & another $1480 on top of that for a mouth guard. Absolutely waste of time, go to a normal dentist that don’t over charger.

Liz mullinar 3 years ago

Negative experience: Overcharge and charge for services not even given. You pay in advance. Very expensive compared to other periodontists

Renee Shipp 3 years ago

Negative experience: Although Smile Specialists came with good reviews I didn't even make it to consultation before getting a referral elsewhere. After having surgery unexpectedly I had to call to move my appt back by a week while recovering. I was told I needed to pay a further $99 non refundable deposit on top of the deposit I had already paid. To avoid paying a further deposit I provided a hospital discharge summary which they deemed from reading that I was in good health to attend my appt even though I had just had a nose reconstruction. They then requested a medical certificate! I found this all ridiculous and have never come across anything like this in my life. Have now made a new appt elsewhere with no fuss.

Cpt Brncls 3 years ago

Negative experience: I was a customer here for years, from when Dr Kim ran the place. He suddenly went away and there are new owners. The cost of having my gums checked has risen from $300 to $500 under the new management.

Jessica Mitchell 3 years ago

Negative experience: No patient confidentiality what so ever. They could not care less about your privacy

Twiztid Noodle 3 years ago

Negative experience: They do a good job, but I had the worst customer experience ever with them. It was miscommunication on their behalf which resulted in me having to find another dentist and not by choice.

Jacqueline Brewer 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend this team of professionals highly enough. My dentist said I needed to see a periodontist. I presented myself with some trepidation wondering if there was any point and OH MY GOSH. I was treated promptly with care and dignity. For the first time in any dental related visit I was given comprehensive information and was then able to take this knowledge and use it to not only maintain the condition of my gums at the time but to improve them, I was also able to use the new found knowledge to critique future care that was recommended and will be happily placing my gums in their hands. I am a critical care nurse by profession so I have a reasonable bank of science knowledge and so from a personal and professional perspective I was totally impressed with all aspects of my care.

shannon knezevic 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Lizzie, Professor Alex and their team are amazing! Very professional, personal and honest in all situations. I have a very long process ahead of me but the journey so far has been top quality, empathetic service from an amazing team!

Alissa Hodges 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Smile Specialists Suite are the most desirable periodontists in the region. Dr Lizzy successfully conducted a gum graft to repair my recession and for me, the entire process was effortless. She was so accommodating and personal, which made every appointment enjoyable. Laura and the reception team also devoted themselves on countless occasions to ease all of my concerns. I can’t thank or recommend you guys enough!!

Cassie Stevens 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I rang the Smile Specialists back in April post a 2 week gum recession and being in a quite distressed state they made an availability for me to get as priority. I have now had 2 procedures and a surgery with Dr Lizzie. She is the very best at what she does and I have a exceptional outcome resulting in saving my teeth. Dr Lizzie was upfront and direct setting my expectations whilst being understanding to how stressed I was about it all emotionally and financially. I really can’t recommend Dr Lizzie enough. ⭐️

Fantastic experience: Dr Lizzy is amazing, I was extremely nervous, she gave me lots of options and alleviated my stress, I have no nerves now when I visit, she is a great communicator. Dr Lizzy fixed my gums and I cannot thank her enough for her service and professionalism. 5 stars all the way. Many Thanks. Kristy

Melinda G 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Professional, personable, thorough - I highly recommend the Smile Specialists. I first met Prof. Alessandro Quaranta and Dr Lizzy Hui when they took over the practice in early 2020. I was nervous at first as I have ultra-sensitive teeth and frequent plaque build up. They tried different methods and I sincerely appreciate their patience and professionalism. I can’t say I will ever love the experience of having my teeth cleaned, but I feel in very good hands and that they have my best interest at heart. My teeth and gums have certainly improved. I won’t go anywhere else. Thank you for what you do!

Kellie Porter 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can literally not thank Dr Lizzy and staff at Smile Specialist Suite for the amazing dedication, care, hours spent researching and absolute commitment to providing the best service to my daughter. She has a long road ahead of her but we are over the first hurdle all thanks to Dr Lizzy and her amazing work. She went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly in the months leading up to and also to ensured my very petrified daughter was as calm and relaxed as she could be while undertaking her 3 hour procedure. Dr Lizzy ensured she understood what the procedure was while not to scare her too much. Dr Lizzy will always be our go to for years to come and i would not recommend any other business to get your smile sorted. Thanks Dr Lizzy :)

Paddy Fitz 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a number of visits to Smile Specialist Suite and was delighted to find not only very professional staff but also very friendly and special people. The specialist Periodontis Alex and Lizzy are very kind and compassionate. I always leave with a smile

Jeff D 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I work in the Fly in Fly out industry, working away for 3 weeks then home for 1 week. I recently had an urgent dental issue shortly before returning home for my 1 week break. At short notice Prof Alex and Dr Lizzy were able to accomodate several appointments (working through lunch breaks and very late Friday afternoon). The expert care given has allowed me to return to work and provided a detailed plan going forward. I sincerely appreciate the efforts of Prof Alex and Dr Lizzy.. Thanks again.

Mike Houtzaager 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I found Lizzy and her staff to be very professional , caring and attentive to my needs and comfort. I am very happy with all the dental work I have had done at the Smile Specialist Suite and highly recommend Lizzy and her team.

Kim Harris 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Lizzy and staff make you feel right at home immediately when you walk in the door. Everything is on time and Dr Lizzy is extremely professional, courteous and very friendly, it’s no trouble for Dr Lizzy to explain exactly what the procedure you having is and why your having it in plain English. Exception after care. Highly recommend Dr Lizzy for anyone needing periodontal work.

Michael Read 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: My regular dentist referred me to Dr. Lizzy Hui and Smile Specialists Suite, after I had put off some work for a long time. I usually have issues with these sorts of procedures, but I have found the communication surrounding the process to be exceptional, and the level of care to be excellent. Already referred others to them.

Paul Charker 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been extremely happy with Dr Lizzy Hui and the staff regarding my ongoing dental needs. My apprehension about dentists wasn't an issue as Lizzy was very re-assuring and thoroughly explained the options available for the treatment I require. The quote for the costs involved were fully itemized and I would highly recommend them for anyone needing periodontic work.

Eastlakes FSS 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am seeing Dr. Lizzy for an implant. Dr. Lizzy has been extremely professional while being very caring and reassuring. She has been very upfront regarding the treatment plan and cost and has communicated well with my dentist regarding the plan moving forward .

Bridget Ferguson 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had been putting off seeing a specialist for my advanced gum disease because i was told it was so expensive and painful. Dr Lizzy and her team very quickly had my fears of both under control as these girls are nothing but professional and the caring nature of all of them very quickly had me relaxed but by far the most important thing is the money you spend is an investment into your future health.the price I was quoted here was much less than everywhere else I’d been in Newcastle . I had my first treatment yesterday and I’m feeling very confident about the future of my gums and teeth returning to a healthy state. 5 stars doesn’t seem enough if there were more I’d give it. I’m incredibly grateful to have signed with them and be moving forward to great health.

Nikki Crawley 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: 5 stars doesn't do Dr Lizzy justice! She is the best of the best. I have been to a number of periodontists and dentists over the past year and she is the only one who picked up on my condition, in less than five minutes! She takes the time to explain to you what is going on and what the plan will be going ahead. Her and her staff are so accomodating and will do anything they can to help! I could not recommend her or her practice enough!!!!!

Miranda Wei 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve seen couple of periodontists in town, Dr Lizzy is by far the most professional, caring and patient one. She managed to work out a personalized treatment plan for me based on her sound knowledge and vast experience. With Prof Quaranta along her side, I’ve got the peace of mind that I am in good hands to get my gum disease under control. It is a blessing to have these top specialists providing service in Newcastle area. Highly recommended.

pierluigi pernisco 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Conosco il Dott. Alessandro Quaranta da moltissimo tempo. Serietà e professionalità lo contraddistinguono nell’esercizio dell’arte medica.

Tini Merali 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Prof. Alex Quaranta and Dr. Lizzy Hui for a crown lenghtening procedure. My anxiety was quickly squashed by the friendliness, care and patience shown by both Prof. Alex Quaranta and Dr. Lizzy Hui as well as the staff at Smile Specialists Suite. I was very happy with the result and highly recommend them.

Jude Briggs 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Not wishing anyone has to consult a periodontist, however we are so fortunate to have Dr Alex Quaranta and Dr Lizzy Hui and their staff in the Newcastle region. Experts in their fields, professional in their care, great communicators and very personable. I could not recommend their services more highly...
