Visited Lumino today and found the team to be incredibly friendly and helpful. Dr Phebe was amazing, knowledgeable and empathetic. She invested a lot of effort into analysing my teeth and offered detailed insight into how I can improve my oral health. I'm so grateful for her expertise and compassion. The receptionist was also extremely helpful, kind and efficient. Great team all around. I normally feel anxious about visiting the dentist but the team here are so caring and immensely skilled - makes visiting the dentist a little less scary!

Had hygiene work done a few days ago. Currently have severe tonsillitis due to staff not keeping thing clean around the tonsils. Unable to swallow, eat, drink or talk. From the doctors, to the hospital to have tonsils drained, and being kept overnight. WONT BE RETURNING

Clinic response ():

Response from the owner 3 years agoHi Dzstra, We hope youโ€™re feeling better. At Lumino our cross-infection control procedures are set to operate above the industry standard. Hygiene treatments are highly unlikely to cause tonsilitis, please get in touch us if you would like to discuss further.

My teeth were in an absolute shocking state prior to coming to Lumino after an accident a couple of years back and I've been very self conscious about my teeth ever since. Kate has been so fantastic to deal with and is a credit to you guys. She's done a great job ridding me of tooth ache, getting my dental health back on track and is a pleasure to deal with. I feel a lot better! Thanks Lumino

Response from the owner 3 years agoHi James, we're so glad that we could help get you sorted and that you no longer have any toothache! Thanks for the wonderful feedback.

Absolutely worse experience of my life, thousands spent here, failed me and my Denture requirements and now rendered usless. I have become that guy with no teeth now thanks for ruining my life guys. You only took my smile away.

Clinic response ():

Response from the owner 3 years agoHi Cory, thanks for the feedback. Weโ€™ve just looked up your records and can see your last visit with us was in August 2020. We see at your last appointment with us you opted not to proceed with the new denture and requested a refund, which we did. If you like to discuss this further with us or chat about different treatment options please get in touch with us a [email protected]. Thanks

I went to Lumino Chch City to extract two molar teeth. Dr. Arlidge was very professional and very friendly, so if you do have dental anxiety, i would say that the team at Chch City Lumino will make sure that you go through the process as well as you could have anticipated. But after your stitches have been removed i would recommend to complete a course of antibiotics prescribed, because i have had an infection already prior to extraction and after stitches were removed and got ill for 8 days and did need to go go through antibiotics. So Dr. Arlidge was 10/10.

I arrived for an appointment 10 minutes late due to traffic. I was told I would have to reschedule, which I accepted and did. While I was rescheduling another patient arrived late for an appointment saying the traffic was particularly bad. Her appointment was scheduled 5 minutes after mine. This client was directed to be seated for her appointment. I understand schedules need to be kept however I felt discriminated against and treated differently for exactly the same reason and time of lateness for an appointment. I wont be back to this clinic.

Clinic response ():

Response from the owner 4 years agoHi Gail, weโ€™re sorry if this looked like we were only making you rebook, we also had to get our other patient rebook as well. Unfortunately, due to timing of appointments weโ€™re unable to fit any of our patients in if they arrive late. Our reception team only asked our other patient to take a seat while we rebooked your appointment then once we had sorted your appointment, we asked our other patient to rebook as well. Weโ€™re currently trying to avoid too much congestion around reception area, so this is why we asked our other patient to take a seat and wait to get their rebooking sorted. Sorry for the confusion here.
