Whilst working in the UK, Justin completed a 3 year Masters Degree in Aesthetic Dentistry at Kings College London. Following this, he earned a place on the orthodontic specialist training pathway and graduated with a Doctorate of Dental Sciences Degree in Orthodontics from the University of Liverpool.
Justin has successfully completed orthodontic specialist examinations at both the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh and the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons. He was awarded the William Houston Gold Medal for achieving the highest mark amongst orthodontists sitting the Royal College examinations across the UK, Australia and UAE. He also received an award from the British Orthodontic Society for the standard of his orthodontic clinical work.
In 2018, Justin made the move to New Zealand and is proud to call Tauranga his home. He is married to a Kiwi, Kimberley, and they have two young daughters. When he's not straightening teeth, you're likely to see Justin out running or spending time with his young family.
