dental surgeon - david mckelvey
I joined Symes De Silva & Associates after graduating with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (Otago) awarded with Credit in 2010. I chose dentistry after exposure to the course in my first year of study and I have been pleased with the decision ever since. During my studies I developed a keen interest in all aspects of dentistry and I have set myself a high standard of patient care, as I am together with Dr Laura Ichim the Providers for the Free Adolescent Dental Care Program.
I am proud to be a part of the team at Symes de Silva and I am looking forward to developing my professional skills and interests in general practice in the years ahead.
I was born here in Wellington, went to Onslow College, and my large extended family is spread all over town. I am lucky to live in the city with a group of amazing friends that graduated with me from Otago, including Dr Laura Ichim whom my colleague at Symes de Silva & Associates. I couldn’t be happier to be back here with my family and old friends after five years away studying in the deep, cold south.
