However, it was not always this way – she started her career in small animal practice with very minimal dentistry knowledge. She was fortunate to have a great mentor in her first job where she learned a lot and her desire to learn more grew. Once she attended her first Veterinary Dental Forum in 2013, she KNEW dentistry was her passion.
Throughout her years in general practice, she took every opportunity to expand her knowledge and along the way she affectionate became known as “Toothy Thomson”.
