Tamara trained at the University of Queensland, graduating with First Class Honours in 2001, when she joined the Kawana Dental team. She took a further training sabbatical period of 3 years teaching at Sydney University before the Sunshine Coast called her home again.
She is a member of the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons and enjoys all aspects of dentistry. She is renowned as an exceptionally caring and gentle dentist and is passionate about ensuring children get the right start with positive dental experiences. She is especially understanding with those who are anxious about the dentist and loves nothing more than helping people achieve their best smile.
Being a mum is one her most rewarding roles and spending time with children Piper and Harry and husband Murray (also a Kawana Dental dentist) is one of her favourite pastimes.
Tamara loves the outdoors, camping, running, canoeing and playing on SUPs. She has recently started piano lessons and is an avid reader of novels – as well as impossibly complex dental journals.
Tamara is a talented and invaluable member of our Sunshine Coast dental team.
