Tania is originally from Adelaide and graduated in 2009 from the University of Melbourne. Before joining Essendon Dental Group in 2013, Tania worked in Geelong in the public sector including postings in Colac, Hamilton and Point Lonsdale and in private practice in Brisbane. Tania became the Principal dentist at Essendon Dental Group in 2015 and is committed to continue the high standards of this long standing practice.

In her spare time, she enjoys cooking but mostly eating - something a healthy mouth is very important for! She also enjoys past times in embroidery - cross stitch and most recently crochet. Fine work requiring hand eye coordination that she has enjoyed since a child and hones day to day as a dentist!

Nathan joined Essendon Dental Group after graduating from the University of Melbourne. He has worked in both public and private practice. He is involved with the Australian Dental Association, being a part of the Recent Graduates and Continuing Professional Development committees. Nathan has volunteered with the Teddy Bear Hospital and the Royal Flying Doctors Service providing treatment to children and the elderly in aged care facilities. Nathan was also awarded the Colgate Travel award for his research into the links between gum disease and pregnancy. Having trained under Essendon dentists, Drs Condon and Smythe, Nathan shares the conservative treatment philosophy of the practice.

Outside of dentistry, Nathan has travelled extensively and is keen to continue exploring the world. As an avid gardener, he has taken on role of custodian of the recently planted veggie patch as well as the compost bin. Under his care and vigilance, we look forward to a better harvest!

Louise graduated from the University of Melbourne and spent the last 5 years providing dental services in the Gippsland area (Sale and Bairnsdale) before moving back to be closer to her family.

Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her family (especially her cheeky 17 month old niece). Otherwise, you might find her in the kitchen, cooking up a storm (leaving a trail of pots and pans in her wake) or exploring new places/towns with her partner.
