I’ve joined Rectory House Dental Practice in September 2016 and I have an NVQ3 qualification in dental nursing. Orthodontic nursing brings to me a lot of new learning experiences, like casting models and making retainers which I find very therapeutic in itself. I thoroughly enjoy working as a team member at RHDP as we look after and support each other. This in turn helps us to fully care for our patients. I am also a busy mum to a two year old boy. So I do find the extra time, I love baking cakes, walking and painting.

“I have worked at Rectory House Dental Practice since 1999. I am a qualified NVQ level 3 in dental nursing and love general dentistry as it offers such variety. Over the years I have built up good relationships with both patients and staff team members and really enjoy the social interaction that working at the Practice brings. In my spare time I like walking my two dogs and eating out.”
