HEE Midlands and East
The Educational Supervisor: Adarsh is a passionate and dedicated mentor working with HEEM as an Educational Supervisor since 2012 aiding six FD's in satisfactory completion of foundation training. He believes strongly that the first year outside of dental school should not only be educational but enjoyable as well. He has a relaxed and approachable nature, which his FD's have found creates a supportive learning environment. Adarsh believes in a 'student lead' approach to training and encourages self reflection and pro-activeness in his FD's. He operates an open door policy and is always available for an informal chat and debrief throughout the working day.
Adarsh has completed his post-graduate teacher training certificate and a Masters in Restorative and Aesthetic dentistry from Manchester University. These extra qualifications helped him renew his knowledge and skills so as to help new FD's with evidence based approaches not only to practical procedures but to learning and mentor-ship as well. He looks forward to warmly welcoming our new FD to the practice.

We regularly go out for dinners or evenings out, we have become involved in charity fundraising the last 5 year raising over £2500 for the NSPCC and the children’s cancer ward at the LRI, which the previous FD’s have partaken in.
