LOUISE ETHERINGTON

In 2016 Louise celebrated 30 years at our practice, which demonstrates what a fantastic team we have here and what a happy place the practice is. Louise originally trained as a Dental Nurse before moving to the role of receptionist.

Our patients know that when they call the practice and speak to Louise their needs will be met with kindness, helpfulness and warmth that really sets us apart.

Our patients and team adore Louise and we all know she is one in a million. She says: “In the last 25 years I have seen plenty of changes in the practice and have met some lovely staff members who are now lifelong friends. I am even godmother to some of their children. It’s a very close team.”

When she’s not working Louise enjoys a busy social life, spending time with her friends and taking long walks with her beautiful dog, Ella.

JO WERE

Jo joined us as receptionist in the summer of 2016 and is here for you during the week and also Monday evenings, should you need to speak with the practice outside your normal working day.

Jo has worked with busy dental practices for several years and understands that scheduling consultations and treatment around work and family commitments can require extra care and planning. Jo is here to help find you a convenient appointment and answer any queries you may have. Jo has a busy life herself outside work and has enjoyed great competition success with her horses.

ABI SLOMAN

Our receptionist Abi welcomes patients to the practice during the week and also on Saturdays and Thursday evenings when many patients find it easier to call or visit VIDA.

Abi started her career in dentistry as a dental nurse and you may sometimes see her assisting the dentists, furthering her interest in the advanced clinical work we do here. Abi has a beautiful young family of her own and is an expert at welcoming children for their visits at VIDA or giving them a little tour of VIDA to build familiarity and confidence — or just to offer an apple in our patient lounge with some colouring in!
