Donna Sharp

Donna started working at Queensway Dental as a Dental Nurse in 2008. After working here for just over a year, she decided she wanted to further her career in dentistry and was successfully accepted on the Dental Hygiene and Therapy course at Teesside University. In 2013, after three years full time studies, she graduated with a BSc Honours degree and returned to Queensway Dental Clinic as a Dental Therapist. In this time has completed the SAAD Inhalation Sedation course which enables her to provide inhalation sedation for anxious patients.
