Our Team!
Becca Smith
Dental Nurse
GDC No. 313127
Having worked in retail for 10 years I was more than ready for a career change!
I have always enjoyed working with people so I was over the moon to be given the opportunity to join the team here at Orchard House.
I am really enjoying my time here so far and I have learnt so much. I feel like I have been welcomed to the team and every day I am continuing to learn new things.
I am a busy mum of three so at the weekends I spend time with my children and my little sausage dog.
Amy Muir
Dental Nurse & Hydrafacialist
GDC No. 169472
I qualified as a dental nurse in 2008 and have worked at a number of different practices over the years. I have to say Orchard House Dental Care really is one of the best places I have worked.
The team are super supportive and there are always opportunities to learn and grow .While working at Orchard House I have completed training in providing Hydrafacials and look forward to further opportunities.
When I am not at work I spend my spare time with my husband and our two boys enjoying fun days out and walks in the countryside.
