Dr Pope takes an empathetic and caring approach towards his patients’ care

 

His approach to endodontic treatment is based on:

  • Understanding root canal treatment from the patient’s perspective
  • Providing options that make root canal therapy a manageable experience for the patient
  • Pioneering conservative minimally invasive techniques in Melbourne
  • Building confidence in long term treatment success
  • Bringing industry leading materials, technology and techniques to treatment.

 

 Both my team and I strive to bring a more personal and caring approach to clinical practice. It’s our hope this helps people to relax and feel more confident about root canal therapy, knowing they are in good hands.
