INFORMAZIONI SU QUESTO EPISODIO
I’m Dr Anne Budenberg, and I’m a dentist with over 30- years’ experience in NHS and private practice, including roles in secondary care, dental education, risk management and mentoring.
I started this podcast to show the diversity of views, and choices dentists and dental care professionals can, and do make, on their career paths, and about creating a fulfilling career. This is for anyone interested in UK dental careers - for those working, or planning to work as a
dentist or dental care professional in the UK. Dental careers are no longer simply linear, or binary choices, but we have many possibilities for hopping on and off whichever career path, or ‘squiggly career,’ you chose to take.
Sometimes the path is planned; at other times, it takes unexpected twists and turns, and you end up at a place you did not expect to find yourself.
‘Squiggly careers’ is a phrase coined by career development consultants, Helen Tupper & Sarah Ellis, and I love this concept, and the fact that every ‘squiggly career’ will be drawn differently, and is unique.
We’ll be exploring some of the opportunities, challenges, and adapting to change throughout your career, as the landscape changes.
In this episode, we’re going to chat about Dental Audio Notes (DAN).
Dr Alekandra (Ala) Rozwadowska and Adam Marsh are a husband & wife team, who have developed Dental Audio Notes (DAN), which allows dentists to effortlessly make complete, accurate and contemporaneous records in every situation.
Ala works in Dental Practice in Evesham, and has been there since 2012. Her further experiences include practising in New Zealand, aid work in Mexico and travelling to Italy and Seattle for courses. In addition to their work with DAN, Ala and Adam are joint secretaries for the Gloucester Independent Dentists (GID), the UK's largest independent study group for the entire dental team.
Adam is the technical lead for DAN, and is an engineer and natural problem solver, with broad experience delivering and managing industrial products and software systems.
