About Us

She feels a true connection with her patients, having not only looked after them, but also their family members and children.

Dr. Philpott says, “One of my proudest moments was when a patient said to me, ‘Not only have you looked after my teeth beautifully over the years, but we have raised our children together.’ That is what dental practice means to me.”
