Having qualified in 2012 at the University of Cardiff, UK, with honours, Dr Luke brings a wealth of expertise and compassion to every patient interaction. Having done a year in rural Queensland immediately after qualification, he then worked and taught at Melbourne Dental School for 3 years, before starting out in private practice.

Specialising in family dentistry, Dr Luke is passionate about creating a comfortable and welcoming environment for every one of his patients. He understands everyone will have different concerns and needs, so will take time to listen and create a plan dedicated to you.

Along with his love for family dentistry, Dr Luke has pursued extra professional development in implant and cosmetic dentistry, becoming extremely passionate and skilled with both. He is a member of the International Team of Implantology (ITI) and American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry (AACD), regularly attending courses and conferences.

Dr Luke is a proud Ivanhoe East resident. He is a loving husband and father to his wonderful wife and daughter. In his spare time he enjoys keeping fit with running and cycling, getting away and exploring our beautiful country, and is (unfortunately) an avid follower of his beloved Newcastle United soccer team in the UK.
