Dentist
Dhaval Shah
I started in 2017 and although beginning a new career in a new country was daunting, I was warmly welcomed and helped at every step of the way. And even after five years, I’m really happy with my career path. I feel empowered to learn and pursue the areas of dentistry that I want to specialise in, such as surgical treatments and dental implants. And support is always on hand if you need it from management, who are committed to making things as easy as possible for you.
Hygienist
Aisha Aziz
My career so far has been quite a journey. I started here in 2014, as a trainee dental nurse and this led very quickly to head nurse and line manager. I’m passionate about self-development and creating meaningful experiences, and my career is an extension of that passion. I’m always looking at ways I can improve and working every day to make progress and move forward. Rodericks Dental Partners are great because if you’re that type of person too, you’ll be welcomed with open arms.
