Excellent advice and employment support from Chris Burns. Very well informed and up to speed with all the intricacies of the NHS employment world.
Thanks for all your support and help.

I cannot praise the BDA highly enough, specifically my specialist advisor, Natalie Birchall. After facing an incredibly traumatic and difficult period at a previous practice, Natalie became my absolute rock.
Her dedication is unparalleled—she masterfully reworked my complex submissions to the PSG Executive Summary and Performer Panel Assessment, neutralizing the language and successfully securing my Performer Number. She even went above and beyond by personally attending formal meetings alongside me with NHS England and the Performance Panel Advisor, and successfully resolved a highly stressful contract dispute with a practice owner.
Natalie represents the true human face of the BDA, showing deep empathy and standing by me seamlessly through my ongoing probation period. She literally saved my confidence and protected my career. The BDA is incredibly fortunate to have an advisor of her exceptional calibre, heart, and strategic brilliance.

I spoke to Neeta today. She has been an absolute God-send. Very thankful that she takes the time out to really listen and help. Thank you Neeta

I joined BDA as I wanted peace of mind, support, and advice for my dental work. Michael Fenton was a fantastic help in reviewing my associate agreement and provided a detailed response outlining possible issues clause by clause. He was kind enough to jump on a phone call to further clarify points. I felt very looked after and appreciated all their help, thank you!

Claire Bennett was my point of contact from the beginning for advice on contract and associate matters. Claire was very good at listening to the issues I was having and at the same time very reassuring and empathetic. She drafted the correspondence I needed and it was done very professionally and to a high standard. More importantly Claire was always, only a phone call away if needed further advice/ guidance or at times just reassurance. I would strongly recommend BDA and Claire personally for her ability to deal with the matters at hand so swiftly and professionally with the utmost knowledge and experience . Once again thank you very much for all your help and support.

I want to express my sincere appreciation for Nashima’s support and professionalism. She consistently provides detailed, thoughtful feedback, and her clarity makes the review process both efficient and genuinely constructive. Revisiting key points with her guidance is always helpful, and I value the care she puts into ensuring everything is well understood.

Thank you so much Claire for all your support throughout this process, it has been greatly appreciated and you have been a huge help.

I had great help from Shrinal regarding unscheduled care. In addition other people at BDA have been very helpful too.
BDA has been absolutely brilliant in supporting members with the contract changes.

I had the pleasure of being supported by Alun in a recent employment situation, which was a very low point in my over 35-year career. At all times, Alun was calm, kind and very knowledgeable in advising me. I am very grateful to Alun and the BDA and would wholeheartedly recommend colleagues join the BDA if not already a member.

We operate across six practices with around 100 team members, so we occasionally require support with staffing matters. Each time we’ve reached out, the service has been exceptional. The team is consistently knowledgeable, professional, and approachable, providing clear, practical guidance that’s easy to understand and implement. Their support has been invaluable to our business.

I was happy with support provided by Claire.She walked me through the process of dealing with issues of staff sickness

I have been dealing with Shabana Ishaq in your employment law team for many years.
Running a large practice and having many staff means we regularly need to seek advice on these matters.
Shabana has always offered prompt, balanced and invaluable advice and is always my go to person.
Shabana is one of the main reasons I have stayed loyal to the BDA.
Many thanks for all your help over the years!

I have been a BDA member for my whole career and have always found the membership to be excellent value for money. I have used their HR support on several occasions which has been very quick access to good advice. I enjoy their training - both online and in person. The resources and library have also been useful in the past. Overall I would recommend any new graduate to join, and any practice owner to take advantage of the excellent support available all within one subscription.

I can't thank the BDA enough for their support throughout the mediation process. From making the first initial phonecall, the support from the staff behind the scenes and on the day, the speed at which they helped me get a mediation meeting in place and their aftercare has been exceptional. I was completely terrified and left in an awful situation and with their help and support, I have been able to get closure on a major professional issue and make positive steps forward into getting my life back on track. Thank you.

I had a dispute over an unauthorised creation of a new case charge while on maternity leave, even though coverage existed until 2027. Ezra was incredibly helpful, offering detailed guidance, tailored advice, and support across all options. She was understanding of my situation, listened carefully, and paid great attention to detail. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, the unjust fee was withdrawn. Her professionalism made an already stressful time much more manageable, and I’m not sure I would have achieved this outcome without her.

I have been really impressed with the service I received as a member. I had an employment contract issue related to maternity pay and Alun was so quick to get in touch, really reassuring throughout the process and offered lots of support.
I really appreciated the support at quite a stressful time, and am not sure I would have gotten the result I did without his hard work.

Within an hour, I was able to access an article that was unavailable in France. It was extremely useful to me in connection with an asylum case. I would like to commend Mr. Peter for his courtesy and promptness, especially since we are in the middle of Christmas holidays. Thank you again, Peter.

Very helpful advice on managing disciplinary proceedings for a member of staff. Felt very supported through a stressful time at work.

I had a very pleasant experience with Natalie Birchall, who was my advisor, when I wanted a quick decision regarding accepting a new role.

Recently Shabana supported me through a very difficult time at the practice and I cannot rate her high enough. She is highly professional, prompt and caring and I really felt supported and reassured along the way. I would definitely recommend the BDA to anyone seeking professional, reliable and efficient advice.
