  • Fisher Dental Team

  • I started working as a dental assistant in 1997 for Earle Kirton and qualified in 2003. After working with Earle, I took a break from dentistry and worked as a postie in Johnsonville for seven years.

  • Fisher Dental Team

  • I have worked in the dental industry since 2006 and at this practice since 2015. I am a qualified dental assistant, and have performed roles in dental practice from reception through to manager.

  • I graduated from the University of Witwatersrand, South Africa in 2000. After working as a community dentist in a rural hospital for a year, I went to the UK and practiced general dentistry there for 2 years before moving to New Zealand in 2004. I have been working in the Wellington region since then.

  • After qualification in the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 1991, I initially worked in Newcastle Dental Hospital before undertaking a teaching and research post for Newcastle University. After two years, I realised that my passion lay in general practice, and I have been following this path since 1993. 

  • Fisher Dental Team

  • The team at Fisher Dental are proud to serve the local community and cater to the needs of the entire family, from children through to grandparents. We endeavour to treat people with respect in a non-judgemental, non-discriminatory manner, and consider in the current climate that this has never been more relevant.

    We believe in the importance of good communication and honesty at all times, and feel this is easier achieved as a small independent rather than following the corporate business model.

    We will explain your options fully from simple to complicated, and allow you to make the final decision on how to proceed with any treatment required. When necessary we will refer on to a suitable specialist. We consider ourselves on the same team, together with our patients - our role and purpose is simply to be here to help.
