    Dr Phillip Townes

    Dentist - BDS

    Graduated from the University of Wales College of Medicine in 1995. Took over the practice with Barbara in October 2004.

    My artistic and slightly obsessive personality means I enjoy creating beautiful & functional fillings, crowns, and dentures with traditional techniques alongside all the technological advances available to us (and there are many!).

    Originally from Wimbledon in London, I graduated from the University of Plymouth and then relocated to Bristol.

    I enjoy all aspects of general dentistry, having a particular passion for restorative dentistry, endodontics and oral surgery. I pride myself on having an excellent rapport with my patients and always enjoy the friendly, professional, working relationship.
