Experienced Locum Orthodontist

December 2023

Leave your practice in safe hands! I have over 42 years experience in both running my own practice and working in a team. Having stepped away from my own practice I am looking to assist others who need a safe pair of hands when they go on a holiday, are short staffed or something unexpected arises.  I have extensive experience with different appliances and have worked with hygienists for nearly all my life in orthodontic practice.  I will manage your patients with the care and respect that you would expect.

As many ASO orthodontists know, I am very responsible, hard working, and will ensure your practice and staff are taken care of in your absence.  Happy to FIFO or do residential stays please contact me to discuss how I can be of assistance. Let me make your life a little easier!
