"I saw several patients In the afternoon who's dentistry had been put on the back burner due to the financial , emotional and time constraints of looking after sick loved ones. I walked away feeling pretty blessed my Victor, touch wood, is a healthy wee man."
- Dr Ben Harris
“One of the most memorable patients on Lumino day for me was a lady called Anna. She was very sweet and had shared with me her remarkable story of caring for her nephews and nieces along with being a mum of two herself and a third on the way!
Because she had spent so much time helping others, things like a tooth ache had become a lesser priority for her. It was very fulfilling to be able to give back and help resolve her dental worries."
- Dr Bridgette Lyne
