Bad dental experience at Lumino Wairau park
I booked with Lumino wairau for filling my tooth. Originally i booked online for a suitable timeslot, but forgot to change the service from the default "hygiene and xray etc" to "dentist", so I called back straight away to update my booking. All sorted by the receiption as per phone call.
Anyway, I went there this morning and told the dentist again that one of the front teeth needs filling as it came off 2 weeks ago. She acknowledged but went on taking photo and xrays. Then she came up with a piece of paper as attached, telling me that she cant do the filling today, she needs a plan to do my whole teeth which will cost me $1204 or $1804 if i chose not to be on their plan. And Im charged $141 today for unwated service and her plan. Left the practice with the plan in my hand, $141 receipt and untreated tooth. Very disappointed at their unprofessional behavior. Im sharing my experience so hopefully no one else will be tricked liked me.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
