Awesome experience and professional care. Dr. Omar did a superb job caring for my kid today, he reassured him plenty and he explained everything and discussed the treatment plan in details with us. Highly recommended.

Newcastle Vehicle Exchange

Couldn’t be happier with the professional service and care. Both Mahmoud and Sherif are great guys that I highly recommend.

sherihan mohamed

Fletcher Dental Clinic is outstanding and highly experienced. They explain everything before starting the treatment. I highly recommend getting your dental care done there. Every time I go for my treatment, I feel anxious at first, but during the session, I don’t feel any pain. The dentist also provides me with the necessary medication after the session. Additionally, my children always enjoy visiting their clinic. They have a TV screen to entertain kids during the session.

Ashleigh Bull

All the staff are amazing! Highly recommend Dr. Mahmoud

Demi Hannaford

I have been seeing Dr. Amy at Fletcher Dental for a few years now and will never look back! The team at Fletcher Dental are always welcoming and go above and beyond. I cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for a great dental practice.

Dr Sherif was amazing with releasing my son’s tongue tie. My son was a month old at the time and it healed beautifully and he was not in much pain. Dr Sherif is great with babies & children. They are a great option in the Newcastle area price wise too.
