The team

David Vaughan BDS

David qualified from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne in 1979. Whilst he was originally from Manchester he is now a committed North Easterner. After qualifying, David worked in Sunderland before buying the current practice from Mr Jurowski in 1984. David has also held orthodontic positions at Sunderland General Hospital and has been a trainer for the vocational dentist scheme four times. David continues to keep his skills bang up-to-date by attending professional training and development regularly.

David is passionate about motorbikes and triathlons.

Sheryn Vaughan

David’s wife Sheryn, has spent all of her working life welcoming people and putting them at their ease. Having spent a long and interesting career as an airline cabin manager flying all over the world, she decided to give up her ‘wings’ and landed as the practice receptionist five years ago. Sheryn knows the practice’s patients so well she can recognise them from their telephone voice. When she is not working Sheryn has a passion for shopping, particularly for shoes and handbags!

Amanda - Hygienist

Hi, my name is Amanda and i have already met or spoken to some of you.
After leaving school i decided to train as a dental nurse. I joined the North East Chamber of Commerce for my training and joined a local dental practice in Sunderland for my placement.
I qualified in 2005 passing the National Certificate in Dental Nursing.
I joined David Vaughan Dental Practice in January 2010 after returning from a trip to Australia.
I really enjoy working here as there are so many different treatments that Mr Vaughan does that i have never beeninvolved before.
I work with the Hygienist and with Sheryn in reception. I am now trained in using Oral Insights - the new Tooth Brushing gadget for kids. I look forward to meeting everyone i haven't met very soon.
