Nurses & Receptionists

 

Joanne

Joanne
GDC No : 159261

I qualified as a dental nurse in 2002 and have worked both as a nurse in practice as well as a nursing tutor for a training college. I love nursing as we are constantly improving our skills and knowledge. I am a cheerful person who loves meeting new people and have worked at Naidu & Naidu for a number of years. I love the fact that it's a family run business and is a happy environment for all of us to work, which in turn helps us to provide our patients with a first class service. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, walking and spending time with my family.

I've been a dental nurse at Naidu & Naidu since July 2014 and I am very glad to be part of the team as it is a very friendly and professional place. I decided to qualify as a dental nurse for the sake of a rewarding and professional career as well as one that encourages continuous learning and development.

Naidu & Naidu is an excellent practice that has helped me with my studies and I always look forward to coming to work the next day. I am fluent in French but my English is intermediate so please bear with me!

I joined this lovely team in the summer of 2014 and what a journey it has been!

Having cared for the elderly for the past 14 years, I decided I would like a new challenge and pursue a career in dental nursing. I started as a trainee and initially felt like a fish out of water! But with the support and warm welcome from Naidu & Naidu, I soon settled in and felt like part of the family.

I love being a dental nurse and it was the best decision I ever made!
