Dr Kalkani has a kind and reassuring manner and has shown exemplary care to my son, who suffered a broken tooth and was nervous about the subsequent treatment.

**Exceptional Care and Attention:** Maria helped us navigate our son through a very complicated maxillofacial surgery. As an integral part of the surgical team alongside the official surgeon, Maria's professionalism and dedication were evident from start to finish. Her attentiveness throughout the process, from pre-surgery consultations to post-operative care, was truly remarkable. Maria's expertise and compassion were evident in every interaction. She took the time to thoroughly explain the dental impact of the procedure and address any concerns we had, putting our minds at ease. What truly sets Maria apart is her commitment to aftercare, making herself available for any questions or concerns we had afterward. Her genuine concern for my son’s well-being was evident, and her support made a challenging time much easier to navigate. In summary, Maria is an outstanding dentist who goes above and beyond for her patients. Her professionalism, compassion, and dedication to excellence go beyond the norm, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Dr Kalkani and her incredible team stepped up in an emergency situation with our son two years ago. The treatment and care, both at the time, and ever since has been outstanding. Dr Kalkani (and the wonderful nurse Polly) have always made us feel at ease and very well informed. Our son is happy and relaxed at all his appointments and Dr Kalkani takes so much time to answer his questions / explain treatments. I would absolutely recommend Dr Kalkani - a uniquely kind and brilliant doctor. We are very grateful to have found her.

My daughter (6) needed two extractions and was very scared of going to our local dentist. After a call with Maria, i was ready to take my daughter into see her at her Chelsea clinic. From the moment we walked in, Maria and Polly put my daughter at ease and for the first time in a long time, my daughter sat happily to have her teeth checked. The extraction took place at The Portland Hospital and once in the day case area, Maria came to meet with us along with the anaesthetist and spent time explaining the procedure and answering any questions we had. The procedure was completed and we were out within a few hours. Maria is amazing at being able to really reassure young children around what going for a dental check up should really be like - and does it with such a soft and calm approach. I cannot thank Maria enough for putting me at ease but also the way she has made my daughter feel.

My daughter has the most amazing and smooth experience with Dr Maria when she had a procedure for the exposure of two buried canines. Dr Maria was professional, efficient, supportive, focussed, calm and most importantly friendly; both myself and my daughter felt well cared for and safe.
5
Maria is not only an excellent doctor and professional but also very approachable and friendly. She was happy to answer all our questions about our son's procedure. She also managed to make our son cooperate throughout the process.

Dr Kalkani was extremely helpful, kind, and patient in helping us understand my daughter's teeth issues. She collaborated with an orthodontist to find the best way forward on which teeth to surgically remove to enable my daughter's adult teeth to be gently moved down over time. My daughter now has a beautiful smile with her own natural teeth that I was not sure at the beginning would be the end result. I have the upmost confidence in recommending Dr Kalkani for any complicated dental procedure.

Dr Kalkani has both the expertise in specialist pediatric dentistry combined with soft bedside manner that keeps children calm and parents confident when going through these procedures. We had four rotten teeth from birth removed and crowns for our 7 year old. Thank you.
