About Us
Bishopstown Dental Clinic
Our Practice & Core Values
Bishopstown Dental Clinic, originally established by Jim Kenefick in 1965 was the first dental practice to open in the suburbs of Cork. Jim opened his practice in the Wilton/Bishopstown area, which soon thrived due to Jim’s dedication, endearing personality and high quality dental work. His caring chair side manner put many a nervous patient at ease and contributed in no small way to the success of the practice.

“Since having had my teeth whitened, I have repeatedly been complemented even by complete strangers on my smile. This has given me immense pleasure and real confidence!”
“I have always been a very nervous patient but I found your staff and treatment put me completly at ease. Thank you so much for your excellent care during the last few months. ps I love the new website. “
I was so impressed with the way the staff and dentist treated my child – he previously had a bad experience elsewhere and I was apprehensive attending again. The dentist and assistant took such great care of my daughter, I wish to express my deepest appreciation and thanks. They were able to keep my daughter calm and showed her and told her everything they were going to do. Thank you very much! ‘
