Important Practice Update

After many wonderful years of running Bellissima, I wanted to share a personal update about its future.

As I step into a new chapter of life—becoming a very proud grandad to little Isabella and reaching 60—I’ve found myself
wanting to spend more time with my family.

That naturally led me to think about the long-term future of the practice and, most importantly, how to ensure our patients continue to be cared for in the very best way for years to come.

It was so important to me to find the right person to take Bellissima forward. This was never just about handing over ownership—it was about finding someone who truly shares the same values: putting patients first, working with integrity, and keeping that warm, personal touch that means so much to all of us.

I’m genuinely delighted to say that person is Taran.

From our very first conversations, it just felt right. We share the same outlook—prioritising patient care, delivering ethical, high-quality treatments, maintaining a welcoming environment, and continuing to develop the aesthetic side of the practice in a thoughtful, responsible way.

Just as importantly, Taran really understands and values the team spirit that makes Bellissima what it is.

I will still be seen around the practice, continuing with facial aesthetics and training, but most importantly the team remains the same, and I could not be prouder of that team!

It’s a bittersweet moment for me, and has been a truly difficult decision to make, as I have known most of you for many years, treated your children and sometimes even your children’s children!

You are not just patients, many of you have become good friends.

I want to thank you for your friendship, loyalty and the fun and laughter we have often shared in the clinic.

Thank you everyone for making my dental career so enjoyable, rewarding and ultimately hard to leave, but leaving with such happy memories!
