Not everyone remembers their dental visits. But almost everyone remembers ❤️Brooke.
If you’ve visited our Burpengary clinic in the past year, chances are you’ve met Brooke. She’s the one who makes sure your experience is more than just a dental appointment.
- The one who called you that night to make sure you were okay.
- Who made space in the schedule when you were in pain.
- Who held your child’s hand while they got their first filling.
- Who translated treatment plans into plain English, just for you.
- Who remembered your name, your story — and your dog’s name, too.

Brooke went above and beyond for me today! I needed a 2nd opinion on some dental work and I’m glad I did, if it wasn’t for her fitting me in today, making me feel comfortable after a day of complete stress, I would have been forking out thousands of dollars unnecessarily!

Brooke is an amazing asset to the team at Burpengary Dental Care. Caring, professional and bubbly. Brooke has always made me feel welcome and I feel like I’ve known her for years, you don’t really get that at dental places so it feels good to be relaxed and that your at a safe place.
Stephanie C., patient
Employee of the Year belongs to Brooke every year! Her compassion, empathy, knowledge, people skills, approach-ability, support, sense of humour and attention to detail are simply unmatched. Her skill set and the connection she built for us with Dr. Zaw are the reason Beyond Dental, Burpengary have become our only dental clinic; and are recommended to all family, friends, colleagues and connections through work… <3

Brooke was kind, considerate, and compassionate to my needs and allowed me to come in, get it repaired, and sent me on my way the same day!!

Brooke is an exceptional practice manager and the heart of Beyond Dental Care. She’s everyone’s biggest advocate! Kind, generous and genuinely invested in the wellbeing of both patients and the team. Her commitment to ensuring every patient feels cared for and fully informed about their treatment is unmatched. In my eyes, Brooke is already Practice Manager of the Year!
Stephanie C., patient
From the moment you walk into Beyond Dental Care, it’s clear that Brooke sets the tone for an exceptional patient experience. As Practice Manager, she is professional, caring, and incredibly dynamic. Brooke doesn’t just manage the practice — she actively engages with patients, ensuring they feel genuinely welcomed, appreciated, and at ease.
What truly sets Brooke apart is her ability to build personal relationships with patients. She takes the time to get to know people, which transforms what can often be a nerve-wracking experience into one that feels safe, supportive, and even uplifting. Her warmth and attentiveness help ease anxieties and make every visit feel comfortable.
Behind the scenes, Brooke is just as impressive. Every detail — from appointments to follow-ups and billing — is handled with precision and transparency. There are no surprises, just a seamless, well-organised process that reflects her dedication to excellence.
Brooke goes above and beyond in every sense, and her leadership makes Beyond Dental Care truly outstanding practice. You feel cared for as a person, not just a patient — and that makes all the difference.

I found out about Burpengary Dental and met Brooke who took me through the process as I have had very bad experiences previously. She is the loveliest person I have ever met. She has always taken time to connect with me, even when she was running two Dental clinics on my last visit. I look forward to visiting the dentist and not scared any more. Thanks to Brooke.

Brookes always friendly and makes me feel welcome as soon as I walk in the door, I’m always offered the comfort range and Beyond Dental have cured me of feeling apprehensive about visiting the Dentist 🙂
Annie S., patient
I have been visiting Beyond Dental in Burpengary since late last year when I had a broken tooth and couldn’t ignore my dental health any longer. I’ve spoken to Brooke at pretty much every appointment – she has always been so helpful before and after, with any questions I might have and always makes my calls and messages feel welcome. When I finally decided to proceed with a bone graft and implant for a missing tooth, she could see how worried I was and shared some personal experiences of her own, which made me feel more confident with my choice. Although everyone at the Burpengary practice is so wonderful, it wouldn’t be the same without Brooke’s friendly soul!
