We hear from Vishal Patel and Smita Parmar about how their husband-and-wife partnership drove them to become the most improved practice in 2025.
We’re the team behind Dalmeny House Dental, a practice based in Worcester Park that we’ve been building together for five years now.
What makes us a little unique is that we’re a husband-and-wife team – which means the heart of this practice is genuinely personal.
Every decision we make, every standard we set, we own it together. And that shared commitment runs through everything we do.
As for what drew us to dentistry – it was never just about teeth. Dentistry, at its best, is about people. It’s about sitting with someone who hasn’t smiled properly in years, or who walks in anxious and walks out feeling genuinely cared for.
That human connection, combined with the craft and clinical precision the profession demands, made it an easy choice.
Thirteen years in and that hasn’t changed – if anything, it’s deepened.
