BDS (Syd), General Dentist
Dr Debbie Kung is a female General Dentist who speaks Cantonese (as well as English).
I moved to Australia from Hong Kong in 1981 and started Year 10 at Hornsby Girls High School in Sydney. In 1984, I started my Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) at University of Sydney and graduated in 1988. Since graduation, I worked in Sydney for over 23 years before moving to Armidale in 2011. I do not miss Sydney life and Armidale is now my home. I have been serving the Armidale community since 2011 and will continue to do so for years to come.
My philosophy is very simple and that is to treat people with honesty and integrity. All throughout my career, I have maintained the principle of putting patients’ best interests first. I will diagnose your condition accurately, discuss treatment options, pros and cons and costs and help you make an informed decision. You are an integral part of that decision making process. I do not use a “one size fits all” approach to treatment - I assess your individual needs and advise accordingly.
As I enjoy all aspects of general dentistry, and interacting with people from all walks of life, our office environment is relaxed and friendly. I particularly enjoy applying my eye for detail to provide treatment to a high standard - whenever possible taking a conservative approach with the aim of maintaining as much natural tooth structure as possible.
Despite having over 30 years of experience, and knowing what treatment works and what does not, I regularly attend CPD courses to keep up to date with all the advances in dental treatment and technology. I am also very up to date with infection control requirements and adhere strictly to those guidelines.
