Experienced dental assistant in both clinical chair side assisting, reception and administration duties within NSW Oral Health, as well as private practice in General Dentistry, Oral Surgery and Orthodontics.
My abilities are ensuring the efficient performance of clinical procedures, as well as undertaking administration duties, to ensure all patients receive the best care in a professional and safe manner. I work well with others in a team environment and work independently, and consider myself to be able to communicate effectively with work colleagues and patients alike.
As a career I have found both dental assisting and administration duties very rewarding and enjoy the challenge of no two days being the same. I excel in working together to deliver excellent patient care, as well as ensuring patients feel they have had a positive experience all round.
