What does "mentions" mean here?
A practice is listed when text on its own website refers to this treatment. We do not verify clinical capability, qualifications or availability. Check registration on the GDC register and inspection history at CQC.
How much can you rely on the star ratings in Leigh-on-Sea?
6 of the 6 Leigh-on-Sea practices listing emergency appointments show a Google rating. 1 have a perfect 5.0, and 1 of those have fewer than 20 reviews. The median practice has 215 reviews. 3 have a rating of 4.8 or more from at least 100 reviews. Across all of Essex, 10% of rated practices are a 5.0 with under 20 reviews. A perfect score from a handful of reviews is weaker evidence than a slightly lower score from hundreds, and neither says anything about clinical quality.

When might this page not help you?
A practice that lists emergency appointments is not a 24-hour service. Phone lines described as 24-hour are often triage lines that book the next available slot, which may be the next day and may be private. For swelling that affects breathing or swallowing, or bleeding that will not stop, go to A&E or call 999 instead of searching this page. Opening hours were collected for only 3 of the 6 Leigh-on-Sea practices listing emergency appointments, and 1 of those lists Saturday hours, so this page cannot tell you who is open at weekends or in the evening. It does not show who is taking new NHS patients, current fees, or whether a clinician is on the GDC register.
What should you ask on the first call?
- Is a dentist on site now, or is this a call-handling line?
- What is the assessment fee, and does the price depend on treatment?
- Do I need to be a registered patient?
- What time is the last appointment today?
- What happens if I have a problem afterwards?
