Lovely Welcoming Respectful Vibrant Supportive Cheerful Caring Upbeat
Not the words you expect to hear about your new dentist, right?
Our values
Our team may be highly skilled, but we’re also human. We each bring our own brand of vim and vigour to the practice — and we love that our patients do too. At Dentistry At The Cross, we’ve created a safe and inclusive space where everyone is free to be themselves and feel like they belong.
And it’s not just your teeth that are our top priority. We’re big on building real connections with you too. This is why you might even find us sharing our fave yoga moves or exchanging fur-baby stories with our regulars before your visit.
A seamless team with a caring culture

“I love doing complex treatments and I love the challenges of dentistry. But most of all, I love helping people — especially patients who come to us in pain. When we call them the next day and they say they could finally sleep that night, that makes my day… that’s my motivation.”

“Whether it’s my delightful Scottish accent that lifts the mood or my gentle approach that puts them at ease, our patients can rest assured that they’ll always feel completely comfortable in my care.”

Lois Semke

“We’ve created a lovely, supportive culture here for both our patients and our team alike. I genuinely look forward to seeing each of our patients and making them feel like the most important person in the room (because let’s face it — they absolutely are!)”
It’s no secret we
adore our patients
—
and they don’t mind us, either!
What an amazing experience. Everyone was so lovely and caring, from Lois at reception to Angelee the dental hygienist to Ben the dentist. Above and beyond my expectations!
