Dr Greg Thomas is one smart cookie.  If you are seeing him today as a patient - well done, great choice!

An insight into his background:

He completed a Bachelor of Science majoring  in biochemistry and a Doctorate of Philosophy (PhD) in the field on medical neuroscience (that's exciting stuff relating to the brain...for those of you who didn't know).

And if you think all that study was enough...think again.  He went back and completed a further degree graduating with Honours from the School of Dentistry at the University of Queensland.

Focused on building a career in dentistry, Dr Thomas molded his craft and has combined oral health with total body wellbeing.  He is very well regarded within the dental industry and is constantly seen perfecting the "perfect smile" for many of his patients.

An extensive Dental Career:

Dr Thomas has worked throughout the East Coast of Australia in rural NSW (Inverell) where he experienced hands on problems of not only the delivery of dental but general medical services in the bush. It was not uncommon for patients to travel one to three hours or in some cases fly in for a dental appointment.

He then moved to the ACT where a close knit dental community allowed experience and training in a variety of specialized dental field including endodontics, orthodontics and facial/dental development, and jaw problems (TMD).

Finally in 2002, with a young family Dr Thomas returned to Brisbane and joined Rochedale Dental Group. Today he is one of the owners of the Practice and is passionate about making the Practice a "Dental Centre of Excellence".  He writes many articles for our Practice in the media.

Getting to know Dr Thomas:

Are you a soccer fan?  Dr Thomas is mad about the game and a real Madrid supporter. With a strong family connection to Spain (Sara his wife is Spanish), it's no wonder .If he's not playing soccer with his two sons, Dr Thomas is outdoors  - camping, bushwalking/trekking, beach and snow.

Or you could find him in the kitchen cooking up an exotic dish.  He is a self confessed foodie and supporter of Slow Food international.  What vast talents!
