Dr John Hur
Dr John finished his studies to become a dentist in 2015 at Griffith University on the Gold Coast. Born in South Korea, he has lived and studied around the world including the US, New Zealand and Australia. Of course, he now calls Australia home!
Since graduation, he worked and explored Australia going from Atherton Tablelands in Far North QLD to Mandurah, WA. However, since last year, he decided to settle down in #TamworthNSW to become Your Tamworth Dentist.
If you’re anxious about going to the dentist or have had past traumatic dental experiences, you should give Dr John a chance. He’s thorough with explaining what’s happening in your mouth and gentle with his hands.
Dr John has special interest in oral surgery and loves helping his patients with their wisdom teeth and dental implants. Whatever dentally related concern you have, he will hear you out and always give it his very best to attend to your needs.
On his off hours, he keeps active at the gym, the tennis court or the basketball court. Sometimes you might find him digging a ditch or two at the golf courses! If you do, don’t be shy and come say hi! He will say hi back with the happiest smile you’ve seen.
