Episode 7 - Series 2 - Memnia Theodorou - Embrace every step

The poignant dental professional I had the pleasure of interviewing for this recording is Melanie Pomphrett who qualified from Essex in 2015 and has certainly achieved so much since then.  On todays show she speaks about her career path to date, and the different roles she has had, and what these varied roles entailed.  Melanie was so interesting to speak to, and I know you are going to feel invigorated to do even more after listening to her podcast. If you are unsure of how to spend your time in isolation now Melanie will certainly get your thinking.
 
Melanie qualified as a dental hygienist in 2015 and has been working in practice ever since, In 2016 she embarked on a master’s degree in Dental Professional Practice at the University of Kent. Currently she is working in practice part time whilst also working as a Professional Educator for Philips Oral Healthcare, this role gets her out of the surgery and travelling round to dental practices and events to educate on the benefits of Sonicare electric toothbrushes. Melanie has created an Oral Health Education course for dental nurses with Dental Nurse Network which  continues to support as a distance learning course and is an ambassador for the BSDHT. Currently she continues her education working towards a postgraduate certificate in education.
