    I would imagine that most dental surgeries would be wheelchair/ambulant compliant. Building regulations have covered this since 2002.

    Best went making an appointment to ask first, as one of the Dentists in Letterkenny has a lift but it has been out of order for a long time.

    Keep imagining! Building regs are not retrospective, so they generally only applies to new buildings.

    There is an obligation under the Disability Act on the HSE to ensure that services provided to it are accessible.

    I would have thought so too but I discovered by ringing a few that they were upstairs or had a few steps at the front door.
