Dr Rahul Patel
Endodontist (GDC No.71919)
I qualified from the University of Sheffield in 1996 and subsequently gained extensive experience working across several general practices in Sheffield, Tamworth, and Southwest London. In April 2007, I became a partner in an independent mixed practice in Witney, Oxfordshire.
In 2001, I undertook a part-time Postgraduate Certificate in Restorative Dentistry at the Eastman Dental Institute, where I developed the ability to critically evaluate my work across the various disciplines of restorative dentistry. It was during this period that I discovered a particular interest in endodontics. Building on this, I went on to complete an MSc in Endodontics at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry, Queen Mary University of London.
I currently serve as a council member of the British Endodontic Society (BES).
Outside of dentistry, I enjoy taking part in mountain and road biking events. Prior to this, I spent nearly two decades rowing competitively, and I am now preparing to begin the British Rowing coaching qualification pathway to support and develop the next generation of rowers.
