Employer Description:
L&Y Dental practices are fully private dental practices owned by Dr Yasmin Anaboussi and Lakshmi Rao. It appears that, now-a-days, there seem to be only two kinds of private dental practices: A small practice with only one or two dentists, where they only offer limited treatments under one roof and The ‘commercially focussed’ practices, where patients are not the first and main priority. This is where L&Y can make a difference; our dream of developing a dental care centre where patients are number one priority. We provide all kinds of dental services maintaining the community ethos and providing the facilities of various payment options for patients so they can afford high quality dental treatments.
