The Area: Hoddesdon is a medium sized Market Town in East Hertfordshire with good connections to M25 and London.
The nearest rail stations are Rye House and Broxbourne.
Hoddesdon is 21 miles north of Central London on the A10.
The area is currently undergoing a housing boom as a result of the local plan to significantly increase the number of residential units.
The nearest two hospitals with Oral Surgery / Maxillofacial departments are Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow and The Lister Hospital in Stevenage.
Property prices vary across the area depending upon the age, size and location of the property.
We have a range of patients who attend the Practice. Some commute to London and the late evening appointments are popular with them. Others live and work locally.
Our patient base is not confined to the most immediate area
Our patients tend to be very loyal over the longer term (Some date back to 1983!)
[At one point our most distant patient was working in Rio de Janeiro for a year!]
The Practice has a very good local reputation and our former FDs are all fondly remembered by their patients.

 

Other Points of Interest: Paul Jackson regularly "jams" with a former guitarist from Iron Maiden and also with the former drummer from the Steve Hackett Band. This may go some way towards explaining his hearing issues...
