Stonehaven sweetheart scoops national award

Dental hygienist Trish, aged 55 and from Stonehaven, was selected by campaign organisers, the Oral Health Foundation, because of her decades of commitment to NHS dentistry, charity and voluntary work.

Trish, who works at Dental Inspirations on North Deeside Road, was nominated for the award by her practice manger Leianna Minty, who labelled her as a ‘HyGenius’ before saying she has one of the “warmest smiles that would ever greet you.”

Speaking of Trish, Leianna said, “Nothing is too much for her, she goes above and beyond for all her patients and really just anyone she comes into contact with.

“Trish is dedicated, genuine and has a true heart of gold.

“I could list thing after thing about our Trish and why she should win, but mostly because she is her and we love her.”

In the nomination, Leianna goes into detail about how Trish makes time to help raise money for charities despite providing care for her son with cystic fibrosis.
