Dr Iqra Rafiq, BDS (Glasgow), MFDS(RCS) (Glasgow)

My aim is to craft radiant, healthy smiles for patients of all ages.

I firmly believe that every patient deserves personalised care and a comprehensive, bespoke treatment plan.

We learn by listening, so I listen carefully to each patient’s concerns, understanding their goals, and addressing their queries in a calm and comfortable environment. This enables me to deliver the high quality dental care I am committed to providing.

My professional journey began with my graduation from the University of Glasgow, after which I acquired the postgraduate distinction of MFDS from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. During this period, I also gained proficiency in providing intravenous sedation. I am an accredited Invisalign provider and I take pride in my most recent accomplishment: completing an intensive one-year postgraduate course in Cosmetic Dentistry and Aesthetic Restorative Dentistry, based in London.

I adore my profession, and I love taking opportunities for continued lifelong allowing me to refine my expertise and proficiency.

Originally hailing from Glasgow, I frequently travel back to my hometown to visit family and immerse myself in the exquisite Scottish scenery. In my leisure time, I enjoy delving into health and well-being podcasts, losing myself in a captivating book, and engaging in a love-hate relationship with HIIT classes!
