Welcome to Smilepod Soho!

Welcome to Smilepod Soho!

I’m Agnieszka, and I’m usually the first person you’ll meet when you visit our Soho studio. As a trained dental nurse, I’m always happy to discuss any concerns you may have and help put you at ease. We’re not scary here at Smilepod Soho!

Our studio is modern, bright, and welcoming, and I’m proud to work alongside a fantastic team. Our dentists and hygienists are dedicated to making every visit as comfortable as possible while providing the highest standard of care. We believe in a friendly, relaxed approach, and there’s nothing better than seeing our patients leave with a smile.

We’re also a multilingual team. If you’d feel more comfortable speaking another language, just let us know. At Smilepod Soho, we speak English, Portuguese, Slovak, Hungarian, and Polish.”

About the practice

Hi, I’m Agnieszka, the Studio Manager at Smilepod Soho. I’m passionate about creating a warm, professional environment where both patients and team members feel supported and cared for. My role involves overseeing the day-to-day running of the studio, coordinating with clinicians, managing appointments, and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. I take pride in delivering excellent service and making sure every patient has a positive experience with us.

I’d like to warmly welcome all our patients, whether you’re visiting for the first time or returning, you’re in safe, friendly hands here at Smilepod. I also love supporting our team, whether it’s organising training, events, or just being there when they need a hand. At Smilepod, no two days are the same, and that’s what makes my job so rewarding.
