| Something about myself | I devote my energies towards helping people when I can and adding happiness to their lives. |
| Why Laser + Holistic Dental? | I established the 2nrich Centre to create a multi-faceted approach to addressing the huge range health problems in modern society. I wanted to work in a clinic with progressive and industry leading technology that still had an environmental conscience – the best way to achieve this was to start my own clinic. This has evolved into Laser + Holistic Dental with the focus on developing new clinical standards and utilising the most advanced technology available. |
Dr Lisa is currently injured and is not seeing patients.
