I've been going to Lumino Courtney Dental for about 15 years and they are absolutely excellent. My dentist James, my dental hygienist Rachel and all of the amazing dental assistants and the administration staff out the front desk as well. They really go the extra mile to try and find times that fit your schedule if possible. The dental work they do is really professional and high quality, and always collaborative between you and them. You don't feel like you're being pressured into a particular procedure type, but instead given a range of options and then also a professional recommendation. I would wholeheartedly recommend them.

Extremely happy with my continued dental care from the team at lumino and would highly recommend to anyone needing dental work. Kira is a great oral health therapist and handles each session with great professionalism. The same can be said about Andrea who is also a great dentist and very professional. Both have made my dental plan extremely approachable in terms of long term health and I am very grateful.

Even though I am based in the wairarapa I make the journey over the hill to see James and the team for all my dental work, because I feel heard and I trust the advice James gives me.

I had an appointment at Lumino with Oral hygienist Kira today. I was nervous and concerned about the treatment after having had oral surgery. Kira was excellent and highly professional with me. She handled my concerns with patience. She checked in to see I was okay throughout the treatment. I am so grateful and relieved to have had the treatment! Thanks very much Kira and the Team (Kind Receptionist who was the first person to hear my concerns and was understanding) at Lumino Courtenay Place.

The dentist is usually my least favourite place to be, but at Lumino i feel alot more at ease - even after 9 fillings. Everyone here is professional & friendly, would recommend to anyone who needs any dental work done.
