“Corrimal Dental have been providing excellent dentistry and high quality patient care to the local community since 1990. Formally owned by Dr Stephen Hannaford, we were located at 420 Princes Highway and Railway Street, Corrimal, but in May 2012 Dr Raj Pather took over the practice and relocated into Corrimal CBD in May 2014, to new state of the art facilities. At Corrimal Dental we provide all our patients access to excellent dental care and good oral health through quality dental treatments at an affordable price.”
