Report
As someone with a life long experience as dentistry patient, I can say clearly that Dr. Paula MacPherson is one of the best dentists I met. All work done was %100 successful. Also all Southgate Dentistry team is very friendly, yet very professional. Everyone knows what to do and what to say. They knew the answer to every question I asked. I also took my little girl for some work and she was happy throughout all sessions. I recently moved to Nova Scotia and was a bit anxious to if I'd find a good dentist like the one I had back home. I'm very thankful that I found Southgate Dentistry. Additional

Report
My first visit was nothing but extraordinary. I got an appointment the day after I sent an email. I hadn't been to the dentist in over a year due to Covid-19 and I knew I'd have cavities. As suspected, during my visit I was informed I had a few. After my cleaning, they performed my fillings on the same visit! I'm very impressed with the friendliness of each and every one of the staff members.
