John Taylor Dental Care

Thank you to Mike from East Coast Fire (ECF) for our Fire Marshall training this afternoon 👍

Scarborough Castle was AWOL at lunchtime today....😮

I think the Boys of Summer have gone! Brrrr.

Nice to be able to deploy the outdoor seating at the practice today!

Many thanks to Ros Jones Coaching & Personal Development for her presentation to the team on Domestic Violence and the Workplace last week. A topic often not acknowledged or spoken about. We have signed up to the Yorkshire Business Charter on Donestic Abuse and further information is available in the practice and on our website.

An unexpected visitor in the practice garden at the end of today. Plants getting a good nibbling! 😀

Just enough time to admire the sea view this lunchtime! 😄

Tomorrow, 30th April, we will be undertaking team training most of the day. If you need to get in touch then leave a message on the answerphone system and will will get back to you as soon as we can. Thanks. 🙂

We are on the lookout for a qualified Dental Nuse to cover holidays and other absences. We are a small, friendly private practice close to Scarborough's North Bay. If you are interested then please contact us on [email protected] 😁

Nice to get enough dry weather to tidy up the practice garden a little. Need to source some extra plants now to fill the gaps. 🙂🌷🪻⚘️🌴

Red sky at night this evening in Scarborough! Advanced warning, we are having a new electricity meter installed on Wednesday (7th) somewhere between 12pm and 4pm so our power will be off for a while. Hopefully any calls will go automatically to our answerphone for us to follow up later. 🙂

Practice Opening Hours between Christmas and New Year: We will be back tomorrow, 27th December from 8.30am, working half days this week. Normal services resumes Tuesday 2nd January 😁

A few photos from our team Christmas Afternoon Tea at the Palm Court Hotel. Too well fed - doggy bags were the order of the day! 😁

A big thank you to Alan and Yvonne for putting the practice garden to bed for the winter! 👍

Like a rare conjunction of the planets, it's not often our hygienists are all together in one place! So had to get a snap of Helen, Me, Taylor and Lisa all together at a Dental Study Day today in York 😁

We would like to welcome our new hygienist, Taylor Harris, to the practice. She will be offering additional hygiene services on Tuesdays to augment our existing provision from Lisa and Helen. Welcome on board Taylor! 😁

Today I have mostly been riding on trains!

As I haven't posted for a while, here's a photo from my "weekend job" as volunteer with the Pickering Wagon Group on the NYMR. This is "Black 5" No 5428 Eric Treacey running into Pickering last Saturday, 09/09/23

Our world record beating buddleia is going down well with the butterflies! 😁

Tried out the new Tokyo Star cafe on Westborough in Scarborough today. Those Jackson boys have done a fantastic job with reviving an effectively derelict interior, a stunning result. The coffee and cake were great too! And yes, I did brush my teeth afterwards! 😁

An interesting piece from the guys at Zoe about how oral bacteria can affect your general health...

Oral Bacteria and Obesity: Is There a Link? We explore the growing links between the bacteria living in your mouth and your risk of obesity and other metabolic disorders.

Jobs for a Sunday afternoon - fettling dental units and going into the under the floor space

Had to show you this wonderful floral arrangement that receptionist Gilly constructed from her garden 😍

We are no longer calling our patients to screen for COVID etc the day before appointments and mask wearing in the practice is now purely voluntary. Please let us know if you feel unwell before attending and we will be happy to rebook. Thank you from all the team for your patience and understanding over the past 3 years 🙂

Not posted for a while so here's the North Bay earlier this week with a very calm sea. And teeny tiny pirate ship. 😁
