Meet Dr. Donna, a dedicated dentist at Newstead Smiles, specializing in restorative dentistry and minor oral surgery. She ensures the highest standard of care and a comfortable experience for all patients.

Donna is a Brisbane local having lived here majority of her life. She completed her dental qualifications from the University of Adelaide in 2014 after which she returned home to sunny Queensland. The subsequent few years were spent enjoying rural living and gaining invaluable experiences working in Gympie, prior to returning to Brisbane and joining the team at Newstead Smiles.

Donna enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, but has developed a passion for restorative dentistry and minor oral surgery. She values building genuine, lasting relationships with her patients, and strives to create comfortable and positive experiences.

Donna is committed to continual professional development to ensure that she is able to provide treatment of the highest possible standard. She regularly travels to attend courses and conferences as part of her dedication to updating her knowledge and honing her skills.

Outside of dentistry, she enjoys spending time with her family, discovering fun new shows or movies to binge, and getting lost in a good book.
