LAKEMACDENTIST - Key Persons
Dr Eric completed his Dentistry degree BDS at the prestigious Sydney University in 2002. After successfully graduating, he worked in the public system in Bathurst, where he gained excellent hands on experience in a wide variety of dental procedures. He then moved his growing family to the beautiful shores of Newcastle to establish his business in an area he would like to raise his family. After working for a few practices in the region, Dr Eric decided to open his own clinic to provide the kind of dental care he was passionate about, delivering his high standard for all his patients.
Dentist by day and DJ by night, Dr Eric loves to mix party tunes as a DJafter hours! Don't be surprised if you find him supporting his local children's school, Charlestown South Public School at dances including the year 6 farewell. He also puts his DJ skills to good use with the local youth community, sometimes pumping the disco tracks so loud that the police are called for noise pollution!

After graduating she relocated back to Newcastle, so she could raise her young family.

Meg always likes to make sure her patients feel comfortable and have a better understanding of their oral health. She strives to give every patient the best possible care with her attention to detail. Meg is currently working part time whilst also looking after her two young children.
When not at work, Meg is usually at kids' playgrounds, shopping, or walking along the beach.

Hi, my name is Kaylee, I've been a dental assistant for 3 years. In 2015 I decided I wanted a career change, a total industry chance in fact. In 2016 I started out at LMDP with Eric, Rachel and the fabulous team training me up to gain my certificate 3. Soon after I ventured off for roughly 2 years. Now I'm back with LMDP and couldn't be happier, our patients truly get the best care by a passionate team that thrive off each other. In my spare time you might see me at a local food market or walking by the lake with friends and fury friends in tow.
