Professional Experience

I joined the practice in August and became the latest and youngest dentist in the practice. It was very easy to settle into the practice due to the friendliness of the rest of the team.

After graduating from Newcastle Dental School, I promptly decided to move to Yorkshire. Following a spell in Mirfield, I moved to Heckmondwike. Working in Heckmondwike has been an experience. I've learnt a new word every week from Debbie and Keely and met people of all backgrounds with their own unique view of life.

Professionally, I am very keen on postgraduate education. Presently I am aiming to achieve a Masters degree (MFGDP) early in the New Year. So if I pull the camera out at your next visit, please don't be alarmed, as I need dental photographs for the course. My area of dental interest are paediatric dentistry and endodontics. Debbie and I also enjoy treating nervous and anxious patients. We both have alot to offer this group of patients to make dental treatment as comfortable as possible.

I look forward to your next visit to the surgery. If you have a song request during your next treatment appointment, Debbie will do her best to sing it.
