Ian is committed to further education and training to help in the care of his patients. He gained the MJDF diploma at The Royal College of Surgeons of England in 2012, the Postgraduate Diploma in Conscious Sedation from Newcastle University in 2015, considered to be the gold standard in sedation training in the UK, and a Diploma in Restorative Dentistry from University of Chester in 2019. The experience and skills gained from this Diploma allows Ian to assess and treat patients with more complex treatment needs.

In addition to this, he has also completed further training in Botox and dermal fillers, short term orthodontics, smile design and tooth whitening. The experience and skills gained from these courses allows Ian to provide the highest quality treatment options for his patients, helping them achieve the smiles they have always desired.

Outside of dentistry Ian can be seen running about after his two young children and, when he can, enjoys running about some more on the football pitch for his local Sunday league team.
