Meet The Team

Richard trained at Birmingham and London and offers dental care to patients on referral and those registered to the practice. He lectures at Birmingham Dental Hospital and at practices in Bristol.

As well as providing preventative dental care and cosmetic dentistry, Richard has a special interest in dental implants for those patients with missing or damaged teeth that need replacing.

Richard moved to Gloucestershire in September 2000 and lives in a village three miles from Cirencester with his wife Maggie and their four boys.

Maggie qualified with distinction from Birmingham University Dental School in 1990 and after four years of training, gained a Fellowship from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons and a place to study Orthodontics.

She trained for three years in Birmingham and qualified as a specialist in 1997. Her first post was to run the Orthodontic Service in Dudley Community Trust.

Julie has been with us since 2004 and previously worked in hospital and community practice.

Outside of dentistry, Julie likes to spend time with her family and dogs. Her keen interest in animals stems from her time qualifying as a veterinary nurse after leaving school.

Naomi has been qualified as a dental hygienist since 2008 having previously worked for Richard as his dental nurse since 2002.
