Man raging after being told he is 'too fat' for dental treatment
13.05.2023 - 10:57 / dailyrecord.co.uk
A man has been left “insulted and upset” after being refused dental treatment because he was “too fat for the chair”. David Bottomley, from Penderyn in Wales, was “gobsmacked” after turning up at Dental Lounge in Glynneath on Friday, May 5, and being told that he couldn't be seen due to his weight.

“I wish I’d have been told much earlier. It’s not like they didn’t know me. I’ve been this weight for 15 or 20 years and I’ve been going to the same
