DB Dental

Ellenbrook

I completed my undergraduate with a Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree in Neuroscience from the University of Western Australia, followed by a post-graduate Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from UWA.

I enjoy all aspects of general dentistry and aim to provide good care to my patients in a relaxed environment, as I understand going to the dentist can be quite a nerve-wracking experience.

Outside of dentistry I enjoy reading, traveling and spending time with my family and friends.
