Mark has been a practicing dental surgeon for over 20 years having qualified from Kings College, London in 1989 with a Bachelors Degree in Dentistry and a post graduate degree from the Royal College of Surgeons. He practiced as a dentist for 15 years in the UK, owning and operating two successful multi-surgery clinics in Cambridge and London’s prestigious West End. The Cambridge clinic had a team of around ten clinicians and offered all aspects of dentistry with a strong patient base amongst families. The London clinic serviced a more elite clientele and was targeted at high-end, complex cosmetic dentistry. At this time Mark was also a mentor for Nobel Biocare (Implant manufacturer and specialists) and would regularly visit other dental clinics to place implants for other dentists.

My family were patients of Marks for over 10 years. He is a great dentist who takes time to talk to his patients and put you at your ease. Our loss has been TCI’s gain. You have a wonderful dentist in Mark.
