About Monica

Languages spoken: English, Mandarin

Monica graduated as an Oral Health Therapist with adult scope from the University of Melbourne. She grew up on the Gold Coast but fell in love with Melbourne after moving here in 2020. Monica knew from a young age that she desired a career in healthcare but also loved hands-on activities so naturally she dove into dentistry.

Monica loves meeting patients of all ages and providing them with the best dental care whilst forming a trusting relationship. She thinks it is most important that all her patients are treated in a relaxed and comfortable environment where oral health goals can be successfully achieved. Since every patient is unique, she believes that providing personalised care is the heart of patient care.

Outside of the clinic, Monica loves travelling to different countries and exploring various foods and culture- she is also a big foodie.
