We aim to provide a full response within 10–20 working days, depending on the complexity of the issue.

Treatment Provided Within Partner Practices
Fraser Callaghan provides specialist endodontic treatment within partner dental practices in Callander and Windermere.
Some aspects of your care, including administration or facilities, may be managed by the host dental practice. In certain cases, your concern may therefore be handled jointly with the practice where your treatment took place.
We will always guide you to the most appropriate person to help resolve the matter.
