About Mark
Born and raised in Christchurch, Mark completed his University Studies in Otago leaving with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (1986) and a Master of Dental Surgery (1997) with distinction in Orthodontics. On completion of his Bachelor’s Degree, Mark travelled overseas working as a General Dentist in London and the Middle East. Mark’s decision to specialise in Orthodontics saw him return to Otago to complete his 3 year Masters Degree in Orthodontics.
With the sunny Bay of Plenty calling, Mark and his wife Kathryn made the decision to make Tauranga their home. Tauranga’s family-friendly lifestyle along with good fishing and outdoor adventure has proved to be a fantastic fit.
Mark is very proud of Bay Orthodontics and his team for the warm, friendly, professional environment they have created to ensure a patient-focused approach.
Mark is also a keen fisherman and enjoys escaping for weekend tramping, biking and hunting adventures.
