Additionally, there are no out-of-hours (OOH) requirements.

You’ll be welcomed by our bright and spacious waiting room, leading to three dedicated consultation rooms that connect directly to our open-plan preparation area. Our separate, fully equipped theatre offers the ideal environment for sterile procedures, while our designated diagnostic imaging and dentistry areas ensure comprehensive care capabilities.

Our team enjoys access to state-of-the-art equipment, including ultrasound, multiparameter monitors, ECG, an in-house lab with microscope, digital X-ray, dental suite, and Doppler ultrasound.

Our role offers a balanced mix of surgical procedures and 15-minute consultations, along with ample time to work up complex cases. Plus, if you’re interested in more surgical experience, we can provide a higher volume of surgery time to support your professional growth.
