Bobby Bhandal - Design Your Own Future E129

Our guest on the podcast this week is Dr Bobby Bhandal, founder of Avenue Dental Practice in Leamington Spa.

Bobby obtained his bachelor’s in dental surgery from the University of Birmingham in 2013 and is passionate about postgraduate education and training.  After university, he worked as an associate for approximately eight years, during which time he developed a specialist interest in implants and completed two years of dental implant training at the Campbell Academy.

In this episode he talks about those early career years and what drove him to move on from being an associate to designing his own squat practice.
