Clinical Director/Owner
Why did you become a dentist?
“Dentistry is one of the occupations that either suits you perfectly, or not at all. When people ask me why I became a dentist, how I can work in a mouth, on teeth? I always laugh, because it’s not weird for me at all. I really love this. I love giving people confidence to smile, I love helping someone in pain, and I absolutely love the way art and science meets in creating beautiful and functional teeth. I know it might be weird for some, but for me it’s a perfect fit. This is not an occupation for me, it is my passion.”

Why did you become a dentist?
After years of postgraduate training and continuous lecturing and education, I have grown a great passion and understanding of restorative dentistry. I believe that every person deserves the right to a healthy, confident smile and I am so privileged to be able to help them achieve that. By following the principals of Slow Dentistry - making more out of less and doing things the way they should be done I can get to enjoy the emotional bond I have with my patients. By always striving for excellence, we improve ourselves, help our patients, and grow dentistry as a profession.
