Welcome to our Blog

I have now been working at EndoCare Harley Street for almost a year and it has been a great learning experience so far. I first became a dental nurse 13 years ago and have enjoyed the job thoroughly, working in different fields of dentistry.
My position is slightly different here, mostly working on the reception and the admin side of the job. It is equally as interesting, and a great way to interact with the patients and the referring dentists.
When not working I enjoy spending time with family and friends and often travel up north at weekends.

In the final weekend of June my life “changed” forever – I got married…

My fiancé Jasmin and I exchanged vows in Copenhagen on a beautiful midsummer’s day. At 10 o’clock we had the formal ceremony in the city hall, followed by a private ceremony and dinner in the Norwegian ambassador’s residence that afternoon. The party lasted until the early hours the following morning. Jasmin and I had a great time and I think the guests did too, but on Monday morning it was back to work again for me – the honeymoon is planned for October, when it’s rainy and dark in London!

Lots of people keep asking me how my life has changed now I am married (even though it was only two weeks ago). Always truthful, my reply is this: “No, my life has not changed, expect for that now I have to remember to put back on the ring when I finish treating patients”.

After finishing my A-Level in Human Biology one year ago I was lucky enough to land a job as a nurse at the Harley Street branch of EndoCare and on my very first day I knew it was the job for me. Even though it has already been one year since I started work at EndoCare, it still feels like yesterday that I joined the team. Time has flown by!

On a normal day I work in a team with the dentists and support staff, helping during procedures, taking payment, booking appointments and cleaning the surgeries. Last week I worked in the Richmond practice and Friday was a particularly busy day. We had to treat quite a few emergency patients who were in a lot of pain. We had dentists calling us asking if we could see their patients and we worked through our lunch break to treat them.

We treat a lot of nervous patients at EndoCare. A couple of weeks ago we saw an elderly gentleman who was so anxious during his first treatment that I had to hold his hand. When the patient came in for his second appointment I was originally due to work in another branch. However I was advised that this particular patient had a bit of a soft spot for me and was asked to change my shift to work during his treatment. When the man saw me he gave me a big hug – it’s always good to see a happy customer!
