Meet Dr Benny Sheriff
A Journey Inspired by Finding Nemo
Dr Benny’s path to dentistry began with an unexpected source of inspiration: the movie Finding Nemo. As a child, she found herself more afraid of the dentist character than the sharks! However, her perspective changed dramatically through her positive dental treatment experiences. Her family dentist’s kind and caring demeanour played a crucial role in shaping her appreciation for dentistry as a health profession.
Passion for Empowering Patients
Dr Benny loves dentistry because it allows her to empower people to take ownership of their health. She enjoys working with her hands and is committed to providing gentle, holistic, and quality care. Her approach to dentistry is centred on creating a comfortable and positive experience for all patients, especially those who might be nervous about dental visits.
