I can't say enough great things about Dr Stephen Nkansah and his wonderful assistant at Smilepod Soho.Over the course of my treatment, Dr Stephen has not only significantly improved the health of my teeth but also the appearance of my smile. From my first appointment, Dr Stephen took the time to carefully explain my treatment plan, answered all my questions, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. He is an incredibly skilled professional and very patient. During my Invisalign treatment, I had a special request to remove my attachments for an upcoming event. Dr Stephen was incredibly understanding and supportive. Not only did they accommodate my request, but they also made sure to replace the attachments afterward without any hesitation. I gladly recommend Dr Stephen and the Soho Smilepod team to colleagues and friends.
