I moved to Wellington a couple of months ago, and should probably get onto enrolling with a doctor and dentist.
I live at the Courtney place end of town and work at the railway station end, so ideally looking for somewhere in between the two.
Any recommendations? Or places to avoid?

Avoid Lumino on The Terrace like the plague.
They inadvertently hospitalized me, and charged out the ass for the privilege.
Err... elaborate?
Like the plaque*
really? I've been seeing Andy Wong @ Lumino on the Terrace haven't had and issue with him. He even stayed late to fix my sons front tooth when he smashed it on a slide.
Symes de Silva treat their staff like garbage so I would personally avoid them
If I was looking for a new dentist I wouldn't be going there.
Gentle Dental are good. :-)
capital care on tennyson st are very well priced
No Pain Jane at Wellington Dentists is AMAZING.
ross jackson on lambton quay is a nice guy and a good dentist. Very concientious -- he did a filling on one of my teeth that was purely cosmetic, and it fell out. I didn't really give a shit because I didn't really need it in the first place, but next time I went in he insisted on fixing it for free just because he couldn't bear the thought of his work not lasting as long as it should.
My dentist is Chris Seaton at City Dentists (featherston/waring taylor sts) . He's really friendly and upbeat and makes me feel much better about going to the dentist (not my favourite activity), definitely recommend him.
Came here to say exactly the same thing. I never went regularly before I went to see him.
Best guy in dentistry I've met.
