Dr Ronak Patel

Dr Ronak Patel or Ronnie, as he is known to his patients and colleagues , graduated from the University of Birmingham in 2008 and has been involved in dentistry for over 20 years. He returned to work in London in private practice and quickly found himself a key position with King’s College London Hospital. Ronnie developed his knowledge in dentistry by completing his MJDF at the Royal College of Surgeons, from here he progressed his clinical knowledge and skills by completing the certificate in Advanced Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry and Advanced Endodontics. This has allowed him to carry out high class quality dentistry for all his patients providing a range of dental care. Endodontics is only one of his greatest skills and he has completed part speciality training to help tackle both simple and complex referral cases. He now has completed his post graduate certificate in Dental Implants which has allowed him to continue his passion to treat patients that require multidisciplinary treatments. This has allowed Ronnie to treat and complete over 2000 cases involving extractions, root canal treatments and dental implants. Dr Ronnie now mainly focuses on referral work using the most up to date and state of the art dental equipment. Dr Ronnie has the unique dual skill to either save and prolong a tooth’s health with root canal treatment or remove and replace a missing tooth with a dental implant. Dr Ronnie regularly mentors and teaches graduates and postgraduate dentists who have a keen interest in cosmetic dentistry across seven hospitals in London. He also held a teaching position at Kings College Hospital for over 7 years, developing and helping undergraduates develop their dental passion and skills. Dr Ronnie was the winner of the 2021 Chrysalis patient care award. The patient care awards recognise outstanding team members for all their efforts and hard work in 2021. The aim was to find someone who provided exemplary levels of patient support and care in what was an extraordinary year and challenging year in healthcare. Dr Ronnie was picked out of 3000 practices by a panel of judges who commented how lovely it was to read about how Dr Ronnie had gone above and beyond for his fellow co-workers and patients. “Dentistry is my passion – this is evident from when you first meet me and right throughout my work. My drive comes from being able to provide good quality dentistry to my loyal patient base while delivering high results which can be life changing. Being a dental phobic myself I have a unique understanding for nervous patients. My promise to patients is the idea of accessibility, ensuring patients can have contact prior and AFTER treatment giving patients that extra reassurance should they need help short or long term. I will always go that extra mile to ensure my patients are comfortable, fully informed of their treatment and have the ability to have some control. Outside of dentistry I am a keen sports fan, enjoying boxing, golf and football to name . I thoroughly enjoy the transition from my high energy hobbies to the delicate art of delivery of dentistry!”
