The Educational Supervisor: I have a keen interest in the sciences & academic learning having gained a Biomedical Science degree in 2007 & then subsequently qualifying from Peninsula Dental School in 2012. Having worked in various different practices around Buckinghamshire, I have gained experience from treating a wide patient base with complex dental needs. Having close contacts with in-house dental specialists, to include implants, endodontics & periodontics, and attending numerous cosmetic dental courses always ensures a holistic & well rounded approach to patient care. I have been actively engaged with FDs since the practice welcomed the first in 2016 & value the support & continual learning involved with being an ES. 

The Practice: The Elms has been established at its present site for over 40 years and was acquired by the Rodericks Dental group approximately 11 yrs ago. Rodericks is a Northampton based dental corporate with over 70 sites all over the country. The directors are all dentists and FD training is an important aspect of the groups vision for learning & progression. The practice provides a good mixture of predominantly NHS & specialist based treatments, & is located opposite the General Hospital where many referrals are directed towards. The Elms is a designated Rodericks specialist referral practice with visiting specialties each week: - in periodontics, endodontics, orthodontics and implants and there is Hygienist support every day The practice is fully computerised using the Exact software system, with digital radiography within the 8 surgeries. Being a big practice, we have a range of opportunities with a full range of NHS and private services, and a large and varied young staff base. The patient base is varied and the incoming FD will be taking on an established list. It is a 5 mins walk to the town centre & onsite parking is available for patients & staff.
