Dr Johnny Stroud, BChD (Leeds, England, UK, 2008)
I have over 12 years of experience, and have achieved further qualifications in the profession by completing a Master’s Degree in Restorative Dentistry. I enjoy involving patients with the planning and provision of their treatment; to build a trusting relationship and to provide the best care to meet their requirements. I am particularly interested in Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry, which aims to provide patients with functional and healthy smiles.
Originally from Essex, I have settled into Yorkshire life since graduating from the University of Leeds in 2008. I have lived in Harrogate with my young family for the last 7 years, having moved into the village of Hampsthwaite more recently. I enjoy a good challenge whilst fund raising for charities; recently completing the National and the Yorkshire 3 Peaks, as well as the Great North Swim in the Lake District.
