He qualified from Bristol University in 1975 and established Bridgeways in 1982 as a family orientated general practice. In 1990 the practice was the first in Totton to offer private only care and Richard’s area of particular interest was holistic dentistry (how the teeth and jaws affect and interrelate with the body as a whole). As a result of his interests in oral medicine and toxicology, the practice became “mercury free” in 1996 and continues to be so. GDC No. 49231

She joined Bridgeways in 2003, since when has dedicated herself to the role of of receptionist, sometimes being helped out on some days by our Dental Nurses. As such the receptionist is the face and voice of the practice. Michelle also took over the equally important role of cleaner in 2013 and so in turn is responsible for keeping the practice spick and span.
