OVERSEAS WORK EXPERIENCE
Immediately after my post graduation I have worked for more than four years in the United Kingdom from December 1998 to August 2002. During this period I have had the opportunity to work in three different units, namely, Edinburgh, Swansea and Salisbury. This experience helped me to broaden my horizons in the field of Trauma, Orthognathic Surgery and Head and neck Malignancy. The General Dental Council of Great Britain recognized all my working experience. I also completed my Part II fellowships from Royal Colleges of London and Ireland.
