By Rachael Seymour Dental Hygienist & Therapist.
As a passionate and experienced dental professional, I am thrilled to extend my role to Ferring Dental Practice, joining their wonderful team as a dental hygienist and therapist. Having spent the past three years at their sister site, Abbots Lodge in Rustington, I have had the privilege of building strong relationships with patients while helping them maintain optimal oral health. Now, I look forward to continuing that journey in Ferring, offering the same high standard of care and commitment to this fantastic community.
My career as a dental hygienist and therapist has always been driven by my dedication to patient care and education. I strive to create a welcoming and comfortable environment where individuals feel confident and informed about their oral health. Recognising that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many, I am particularly committed to supporting nervous patients who may feel apprehensive about seeing the hygienist. By employing gentle techniques and clear communication, I aim to alleviate fears and make each visit as stress-free as possible. I believe in taking a personalised approach to meet the unique needs of each patient. This passion for helping others is at the heart of everything I do and I am excited to bring this ethos to ferring.
Beyond my professional life, I find joy in my family and personal pursuits. I am a proud wife, mother to three wonderful children, and grandmother to four lively grandchildren who fill my life with happiness and laughter.
When I’m not working or spending time with my loved ones, you’ll often find me out and about with my French bulldog Peppa, I love taking her for coastal walks, exploring the stunning seaside paths near our home – there’s nothing quite like the fresh sea air to relax and recharge.
Another passion of mine is reformer Pilates, a practice that helps me stay active and balanced amidst a busy schedule. It’s a fantastic way to strengthen the body and maintain flexibility, and I truly enjoy carving out time for it in my routine.
I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to expand my career at Ferring Dental Practice while continuing to serve patients in this new setting. Whether at Abbots Lodge or here in Ferring, my goal remains the same: to provide top-quality care and help every patient achieve a healthy, confident smile.
I look forward to meeting new faces, reconnecting with familiar ones, and working alongside an incredible team at Ferring. I am excited for the many fulfilling years ahead, supporting the oral health and well-being of our wonderful community!
