“– Dr AGI have really enjoyed being a part of the team at 1300 smiles and as time goes on I am learning more and more about the different opportunities which Abano offers. My onboarding process was assisted by the practice manager and she did everything she could to make the process as easy for me as possible. My favourite part of being in the Abano company is the access to the online e-learning material and online webinars. The CPD material can be accessed easily and if I ever have any troubles with it Angus and the team are more than happy to assist. I am really looking forward to using more of the e-learning material and can't wait to get stuck into the new modules which are being released this year.”
“– Dr MWI have felt so supported by 1300SMILES Dentists in the transition from student to clinician. There is always clinical support available and the Kickstart program has been invaluable in improving my knowledge base. I have felt looked after by all levels of management and I am extremely happy in my work environment. I would not hesitate to recommend 1300SMILES Dentists to any dentist.”
“– Dr ARThe Clinician Development Program has been a great supportive tool through my transition from dental student to new grad. It has improved my confidence with providing patients treatment, and also challenged me to excel as a new dentist. It also provides a sense of community, helping you feel less alone as a new grad.”
“– Dr STJoining Abano has been a really positive experience for me from day one. Everyone involved with getting me onboard with Abano has been very helpful and supportive. The Kickstart program has been especially useful to me as a program that provides so much useful information in an easy-to-follow way and goes in-depth on many different topics relating to both the clinical and non-clinical aspects of dentistry. The amount of genuine kindness and support I have received and continue to receive is part of what is so great about working with Abano.”
“– Dr BG…The Clinician Development Program has been very beneficial so far. It has been personalised to our needs through consulting with us in person. I have great clinical support within my practice, but it is another avenue where we are supported and are able to develop our thinking, efficiency and delivery of care ultimately for the good of our patients.”
“– Dr MBThe Clinician Development program has challenged me personally to better my clinical skills and take a good hard look at what I am doing, how I am doing it and why I am doing it. At the same time, I am comforted by the knowledge that I am a part of a body of other clinicians that face similar daily obstacles. By sharing these encounters, we can learn and grow together.”
“– Dr MSThe support has transformed the way I approach dentistry, as it has opened my eyes to treatment planning for complex cases in such a way that increases patient retention, which is also helpful from a business perspective. I feel as though I am able to more confidently approach patient diagnosis and management.”
“– Dr HA[The Clinician Development Program] gives me peace of mind. I wouldn't have been able to do this without your support and knowledge. Can't thank you enough for all your mentorship.”
