MEET THE TEAM
Dr Ivan Gird B.Ch.D
Originally hailing from South Africa, Ivan graduated from Stellenbosch University in 1986 and has since moved to the Bay of Plenty with his family. Ivan has a well-rounded interest in general dentistry and has a passion for delivering high quality work to every patient. When Ivan (and his infectious grin) aren't in the dental clinic, he is usually spending time with his two daughters or keeping up with the latest rugby.

Tapeka graduated from Otago University in 2022 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery on top of an Anatomy Degree. He and his whānau are laying down roots in the Bay of Plenty and are enjoying all it has to offer. Tapeka understands that a visit to the dentist can be very overwhelming for most people, but he hopes to make any visit comfortable, informative and provide a positive experience in the dental chair.
Outside of dentistry, Tapeka enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids and staying active at the gym and CrossFit.
