Periodontist
NEW ZEALAND
My goal as a periodontist is to make periodontics more accessible and approachable (for my patients) and fun (for my colleagues and students). I graduated from the University of Otago in 2005 with a BDS and began my career in Gympie, Australia. Returning to NZ, I shared my work between the private and public domains in Auckland. Periodontics has been my passion since 2009; I finished a Postgraduate Diploma in Periodontology with Distinction in 2010, and a Doctorate in Clinical Periodontology in 2013. I am currently working at a specialist practice in Dunedin (London Street Specialists) and at the University of Otago as a Colgate Senior Lecturer. I enjoy all forms of art, and I think periodontics is a perfect blend of artistry, anatomy and science.
