Meet the team

Born in West London, I grew up in Goring-on-Thames and was educated at Goring Primary School, Langtree School Woodcote and King James’ College Henley.

I consider myself very much to be a local!

I studied dentistry at King’s College and King’s College Hospital, London, graduating in 1984. I then held general practice posts in Didcot, Reading, Henley-on-Thames, Sonning Common and Abingdon before joining Portway Dental Care in 1993.

I became a partner here in 2000 and helped negotiate the integration of the practice into Portman Dental Care in 2018, ensuring that we have the resources to continue offering first class dental care well into the future.

I enjoy all aspects of dentistry; there is a lot of variety in general practice, which can be demanding but is also very rewarding.

Outside of dentistry, I enjoy the outdoor life including (but not limited to) competing in Master’s Athletics, walking (I have been trekking in Nepal four times) and cycling. I also enjoy music, theatre and spending time with my family.

I grew up in Malaysia. I read dentistry at Sheffield University, graduating in 2002. My first roles were at Birmingham and Bristol Hospitals before doing my vocational training in the Isle of Lewis, Scotland.

I have been in general practice since 2005 and have spent the majority of those years in Oxfordshire.

I pride myself in providing excellent dental care for all my patients. In February 2017, I completed a Level 1 Postgraduate Certificate in Contemporary Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry.

Outside of work, I am kept busy with my 2 young children. When I am not occupied with the family, I enjoy reading a good book and going for walks.

Born and grew up in a sunny destination, Egypt. I have completed my degree in Cairo University, and ranked fourth on the class of 2016. Then, moved to UK and did MBA in International Business at Greenwich University. It offered me a great opportunity to explore London with its great diversity.

Throughout the same period I completed the registration as a dentist in UK. My first roles as a General Practitioner were in Southampton and London, always putting patient’s best interest at heart.

I have been a member in Portman team since August 2021. For me dentistry is the art of working with my patients helping them put their best smile forward.

Outside Dentistry, I enjoy outdoor activates including tennis and kayaking. I am always ready for a game of chess.

I grew up in Lincolnshire and studied dentistry in Newcastle upon Tyne.

After graduating in 1999, I spent two further years in the dental hospital there gaining experience in secondary care such as oral surgery and children’s dentistry and prosthodontics as well as general practice.

I also gained postgraduate qualifications MFGDP(UK) in 2001 and a diploma in Prosthodontics at Bristol Open University in 2012.

I enjoy all aspects of dentistry with a particular interest in oral surgery and treating nervous patients.

Outside of dentistry I like to keep fit walking and dancing. I also love painting and learning to play the piano.
