Fantastic experience: Great welcome, really friendly staff and the dentist himself (Anthony) made me feel relaxed from the moment he introduced himself. He's very gentle and did an excellent job checking and cleaning my mouth up and explaining what he was doing. My dad was my dentist growing up and so I rate every new dentist I go to (I travel a lot) against him. I can comfortably say that I've found my dentist for while I live in Manly. Thanks folks!
Fantastic experience: Dr Anthony Cassimaty is an outstanding dentist and one of the best health professionals I have encountered. I can confidently say this being a solicitor who works in the area of Health Law. I started seeing Anthony about 7 years ago after being neglectful of my dental hygiene. With kindness and an expert approach, Anthony rectified all of my issues and and got me back on track to caring properly for my teeth. All of his great work was completed without discomfort and at a very reasonable price. I have also recently received cosmetic dental services from Anthony. Unsurprisingly, the result has been extremely pleasing.

Fantastic experience: I visited Anthony at the friendly dentist, he was so knowledgeable and experienced. He is very patient and understanding as I was a little apprehensive about having a root canal procedure. He made me very comfortable and it was over and done quickly. Since then my whole family now comes here for any dental check ups and cleans. My experience was a good one and not how I remember it as a kid. Now I’m having Invisalign’s done, so happy with how things are going so far! Glad I found them!
Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, great service from Dr Cassimatty and his team. Appointments always running to schedule.
Fantastic experience: Went for an appointment a few weeks ago and found the dentist to be very welcoming and personable. The atmosphere was very friendly and the staff were interested in me beyond being another patient. I felt there was a lot of patience and care that was taken into looking after my teeth. Will be recommending to others that are in need of dental care.

Fantastic experience: Best Dentist/practice around ! Anthony is very kind, understanding and thorough and we leave each appointment in high spirits. Also love how we are given all options in regards to treatment and made to understand exactly what is happening. Anthony is also amazing with kids!

Fantastic experience: Have been going here for a number of years now and I always recieve great service from The Friendly Dentist staff. I recall for my very first visit, Anthony addressed some of my concerns about my braces and also explained much more to me than my previous dentist who I had been going to since I was little. 6 stars if I could.
Fantastic experience: Have been coming to the friendly dentist in Manly for about 5 years. Every time I am treated like a member of the family and my experiences have been great. All the staff are friendly and helpful. Any treatment needed is explained fully and you are put at ease by the relaxing environment filled with music.
Thank you Andrew for your kind words. It’s been our pleasure looking after you over the years
Fantastic experience: I recently had an appointment with Dr Anthony, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel at ease from the moment I walked in. The office was spotless, which is always reassuring when visiting a healthcare facility. Dr Anthony was not only professional but also took the time to explain everything clearly and address any concerns I had. I highly recommend The Friendly Dentist for anyone looking for a top-notch dental experience.

Fantastic experience: Anthony has been my dentist for the past 20years. Great chair side manner and super gentle. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Always welcoming and professional.
Negative experience: I was advised I needed 5 filling replacements when I visited for the first time and was facing a hefty bill. I knew I’d never had fillings before so to need replacement’s rang alarm bells for me. I saw another dentist for a second opinion who advised I did not need any fillings. Have still not had any issues to this day.
Thank you for your feedback. There were no replacements of fillings planned. You saw us once over 4 years ago and we are sorry this confusion has led you to leave this review 4 years after your appointment. A phone call to us would have easily cleared up any confusion, we are always happy to help. At the friendly dentist we always endeavor for our patients to have a great dental experience with highest possible level of care. We wish you all the best going forward.
Fantastic experience: We have been going to the friendly dentist for over 12 years. We initially moved to get our young children the right support for them as they grow. We have found the team to be extremely professional, friendly, and competitive in price. It can be tricky with young children and have been very happy with the service. We cannot recommend the team more highly!
Thank you Aaron for your review. It’s been our pleasure looking after and you and family after all these years
Fantastic experience: Anthony and his team are so professional and kind. The level of care Anthony has for his patients is unmatched and his level of expertise really shows through the quality of treatment I receive. Couldn’t recommend the friendly dentist enough!
Thankyou Ashleigh for your lovely review
Fantastic experience: Great experience at The Friendly Dentist! I am a very nervous patient and dont like dental procedures but Anthony and his team took the time to make the experience a good one. I won't hesitate to go back in the future!
Fantastic experience: Easily the best dentist practice and dentist around! Anthony and his team are professional, welcoming and efficient. I cannot fault the service provided and the genuine care provided by the team. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Thank you Dr Cassimaty & the team at The Friendly Dentist for always being so Welcoming & professional. I’m finally not hiding my smile & get complimented from family & friends on the amazing work Dr Cassimaty has provided. Highly recommend The Friendly Dentist.
Fantastic experience: I always walk away from the Friendly Dentist Manly with a smile on my face. Dr Cassimaty and his team are knowledge, caring and understanding. Dr Cassimaty’s ability is just outstanding and I feel safe and comfortable with him. Dr Cassimaty is wonderful with my two boys as well, they actually enjoy going to see him! Always love that I can get parking at the front of the surgery as well! So convenient. We love the goodie bags they give as well!!
Negative experience: Not happy with how it was handled. I came for a simple tooth filling - it ended up that they requested beforehand for me to take antibiotics because of my heart history, which is completely fine. I declined, and politely said that I’ll try in some other place. I was charged 200$ without getting anything done. The whole vibe had a bit of a ripoff feeling - from statement that the job will need ‘quite a bit of filling’, that they will stay late because of me - which I’m sure would come out as a huge bill at the end. Went to another place and got the job done for 250$
Hi Aleksa thankyou for your feedback. We are sorry that you felt this way at your appointment. As you mentioned after examining you and taking X-rays we spoke to your cardiologist who advised you needed antibiotics before your filling could be done. We know you felt it unnecessary to have antibiotics and were upset we could not do your filling without them. We have a professional responsibility to patients to follow health protocols and will not cut corners and ignore specialists advice simply because you ask us to. We had your best interest at heart and have a duty of care to you as our patient. The staff kindly offered to stay back after hours on the Friday before the long weekend as we needed to wait for the antibiotics to take effect and we were booked out the rest of the day. Just so you are aware there would have been no difference in cost. We are glad with the xrays that were given to you, you were able to get your filling sorted. Hope this helps to clarify the situation and wish you all the best
Fantastic experience: What will my teeth do with FD. The expertise and great atmosphere are sincerely appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Super friendly relaxed environment with great bubbly staff. The clinic is in pristine condition and Dr Anthony's Relaxed nature reminds you that he absolutely has all the experience needed to tackle any problem you may have. I have found these guys to be extremely efficient and I must say it is probably the only time in my life that I have been happy to go to the Dentist. I have no problems recommending them to anyone and am actually looking forward to my next appointment. I leave the Chair each time with no pain and clean and fresh feeling Teeth. Thank you Again to Anthony and the Team
Fantastic experience: Without doubt, the best dentist I have ever experienced in Australia. Considered, conservative in his approach, great attention to detail and... friendly.
Fantastic experience: I have rarely had such warm service and attention to my needs and my well-being. "the friendly dentis" clinic is really well named! Anthony showed great professionalism and made me feel that I was in good hands. I highly recommend this place! Thank you for the amazing service!
Fantastic experience: I had a bad experience with a different dentist a few years back which clearly put me off Dentists in general long enough for me to form a cavity... I called up needing urgent help and the ladies couldn't have been more accommodating. Going to the dentist is a generally uncomfortable experience but they went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and relaxed and that seriously makes all the difference. A bit of empathy goes a long way.
Fantastic experience: Excellent, friendly & gentle service. Staff are chilled and friendly. Super clean and comfy.
Fantastic experience: By far the best and most friendly dentists around. I have been having trouble with my wisdom teeth, Anthony & The Friendly Dentists team have been extremely kind and caring. They have even gone as far as checking on me a couple of times a day to make sure I'm feeling better and if there's anything else that I need! They also brought me in without an appointment out of concern to check my teeth for a second time free of charge to try and resolve the issue as quickly as possible...that's unheard of. Thanks to you all.
Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional service. I am extremely happy with the veneers I had done for my wedding, thank you Dr Anthony Cassimaty.
Thank you for your kind words it was a pleasure to treat you and the family
