Dr Batool Aziz graduated in 2010 and provided volunteer Dental services in various hospitals in Karachi, Pakistan. Having achieved a practicing License through Australian Dental Council in 2013, moving to Australia meant being close to her family.

Coming from a family of health professionals Dr Aziz believes in the importance of interdisciplinary approach to Dentistry. She spends time educating patients so they can participate and make educated choices based on all the treatment options regardless of their personal circumstances.

As she continue to provide her services as a Principal Dentist to the lovely community of Port Pirie, working for North Adelaide and its surroundings is a new and exciting journey. Port Pirie has been home to Dr Batool Aziz for 7 years with Adelaide being so close, she has the best of both worlds. Dr Batool strives to excel in all aspects of Dentistry but her special interest lies in dental surgery and has driven her to progress her career in Implant Dentistry.

Although her toddler keeps her on her toes, she loves spending time with family. Playing some form of sport has been a big part of her life while growing up; and enjoys playing badminton or going for a swim.

I completed a Diploma of Dental Hygiene at the Gilles Plains College of TAFE SA in 2000 and received the Dental Hygienist Association SA Student Award and Faculty Student of the Year. I have worked previously in some of Adelaide’s leading practices, including with Dr Jeffrey Mant and Dr Peter Alldritt.

I have been working with the National Dental Care team at Bart Dental since 2005. I strongly believe in the importance of preventative dentistry, and enjoy motivating and encouraging my patients to think the same. I work hard to present a gentle, professional and caring manner.

I love helping patients achieve the best possible smile and maintaining their oral hygiene to a high standard. The best part of working at my current practice is the long-term relationships I have been able to develop with loyal patients. I work hard to consistently provide a high standard of customer service, and try to exceed patient expectations. I am a current member of the Dental Hygienists’ Association of Australia (SA branch).

I continue to undertake further education, recently completing a certificate in panoramic radiography. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cooking, watching movies, and staying healthy through walking and pilates.

Dr Lisa Clowrey qualified from the University of Sheffield (UK) in 1998 and moved to Australia in 2014. Dr Clowrey is especially interested in a holistic approach to dentistry where the general practitioner treats the whole person and mouth, and doesn't just fix one problematic tooth at a time.

Lisa has a special interest in surgery and initially worked in a hospital setting providing surgery with the oral maxillofacial team before bringing those skills to the general practice setting.
