Typical day

I am involved in all processes of the business. Sometime when patients contact the clinic on a day it is closed, I can speak to patients directly and book them in for appointments.
A clinical session involves making sure all stock is present for the working day including vital dental materials. Greeting patients and undertaking dental work fills most of my day. Writing concise clinical notes at the end of every patient and making sure we have provided the best care for each patient is essential.

What do I enjoy about my job?

I enjoy creating and educating people.

I enjoy working with people and have good manual dexterity. No day is the same.
