My name is Saskia and I am the receptionist here at 3Dental. I absolutely love working here as I am surrounded by a team of amazing people.

We all get along very well and the atmosphere is very relaxed and friendly. Let's just say I never have that 'Monday morning blues'!

Having started with no dental experience whatsoever, I feel I have learned so much about dentistry in the last few months. It is a very rewarding area to work in as being able to witness our patients' transformations. Observing their reaction when treatment is completed is such a fulfilling feeling.

I couldn't ask for a better team to work alongside. I really enjoy my job and who knows where my career path may go.
