Dr. Amelia Henley
Principal Dentist · GDC 84321
Amelia grew up three streets from the practice and bought it from the retiring founder in 2014. She trained at King's College London, then spent six years in NHS practice in Bath before coming home to Bitterne.
She places implants, treats severe dental anxiety under sedation, and is the practice's quiet authority on difficult root canals. Off-duty she walks her dog on Weston Shore and bakes sourdough that the team pretends is good.
Also in the surgery this month: Dr. Priya Marsh (cosmetic & Invisalign), Daniel Okafor (hygienist), Sara Penney (hygienist), Tom Ibbotson (therapist).
In their words
What patients
actually said.
Been going here 18 years. Three kids, two root canals, oneImplant. Never once felt like a number.
I cried at every dentist for thirty years. Amelia was the first one I didn't. I've never looked back.
Took my five-year-old in kicking and screaming. He came out asking when we could go back. Wizardry.
