I’m very fortunate to have Werda as both my life & business partner. With qualifications in accountancy & dental technology, she has consistently worked hard to make valuable contributions since the development of our early practice and was specifically instrumental in the overall success of our practice relocation project, when she managed most and many aspects for the project: premises acquisition, planning, design, sourcing, research, finance, administration & project management. At work Werda manages the financial & general aspects of the practice and at home her main focus is to take care of our two beautiful daughters, our 3 cats and me - not necessarily in that order!
