Dr.Stefan Zanoaga
Male
Qualified from: Iasi Romania, 2003
GDC No: 115978
Stefan qualified in Iasi, Romania in 2003 having undergone a masters and doctoral degree with the intent to pursue a teaching career in Periodontics. He felt that a teaching career was not his true calling and so changed for a clinical role as a general practitioner that he found to be more meaningful.
He was given the opportunity to join a small practice chain in 2007 and this is how he and his wife moved to the UK. It wasn’t until some years later when during a holiday in Scotland they literally fell in love with the place and the people and took the leap of faith of moving from Somerset to Lanarkshire.
He has developed an interest in the preventative care, oral hygiene and diet.
Stefan has a keen interest in cosmetic teeth realignment by both invisible braces and clear aligners as well as composite bonding.
In his spare time he enjoys gardening with his wife, reading, enjoying the countryside life with everything it can bring – trekking, backpacking, trail running and cycling.
