Adam finished his degree in Dental Science at Melbourne University in 1991.

Upon entering private practice, he first worked at surgeries in Collins Street, Carlton, Lower Plenty and 517 St Kilda Road.

In mid 1992 Adam relocated to 468 St Kilda Road, the current location Complete Dental Care St Kilda Road. .

During the period 1992-93 Adam, in addition to practicing in St Kilda Road and Collins Street began practicing at the Monash Community Health Centre (treatment centre for the underprivileged) on a sessional basis..

He enthusiastically studies and investigates all new advances in dentistry and where appropriate incorporates them into practice as soon as possible.

Many of these patients upon leaving Melbourne continue to return to our Practice incorporating holidays and/or work with treatment needs.

How does Adam attract so many patients from all around the world?

His answer is obvious: "By word of mouth"
