Dr Vanessa Hayman
Dentist
I first came to National Dental Care Unwin as a patient! With encouragement from my dentist, David, I went on to study a Bachelor of Dental Science at the University of Queensland graduating with First Class Honours in 1994. I worked in Roma for the government and school dental service before joining Unwin Dental Group in 1998.
In my spare time I enjoy holidaying with family.
