We see patients as people, not appointment slots
Dentist at Underwood is a family dental practice in Logan City. We treat our local community like family — and do everything we can to make sure you're comfortable and confident, even in the chair.
"We see our patients as unique individuals, not just as a part of a larger picture."
If you or your family have experienced a lot of dental anxiety, we want to change your perception of the dentist. People just want to be valued, appreciated and included — even when they're sitting in the dentist's chair.
We serve residents from South Brisbane, Logan, Underwood, Rochedale, Springwood, Slacks Creek, Eight Mile Plains, Runcorn and the surrounding suburbs of Brisbane's southern region.
