Cathy qualified from Guy's Hospital in 1994. She spent the next 12
years working as the hygienist at the US Navy base in RAF West Ruislip
which provided her with excellent opportunities to further her
knowledge and clinical skills. In September 2006, the base closed down
and she moved onto work at a dental practice in Ruislip. She now
divides her working week between 3 dental practices.

She earned a Certificate in Oral Health Education from the College of
North East London, 1993, and attended the Course in Extended Duties at
The Kings Dental Institute, 2003. She is also an associate member of
British Society of Periodontology.

Cathy is married with 2 daughters.
