About us

Tom qualified from Glasgow University  and has been working as a dentist  since 1983 when he joined this practice. He was in partnership at Burnside for thirty years until his partner's recent departure when he became sole owner. He says "he liked it so much he bought the company."

In his spare time he plays golf and tennis and likes to escape to the piste once or twice a year if he can.

I finished my DMD (Dentariae Medicinae Doctor) degree at Coimbra's University, a student town, much like Cambridge. Relocated to England in 2008, worked in Market Harborough for a couple of years and moved to South Cambridge for a warmer climate. I enjoy all aspects of Dentistry and have an MSc in Restorative from the prestigious UCL Eastman Dental Institute. My free time is spent with my wife and sons and of course the dog and cats. Travelling is part of my DNA and I'm always looking forward to it.
