Episode 4: Shafaq Ali

Shafaq Ali qualified from GKT in 2003. In 2020 she was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's which will cut her career short. Despite this, she remains extremely positive, giving her time to multiple charities including Parkinsons.org.ukShe is involved with the BDA benevolent fund, raising awareness for dentists finding themselves in financial difficulties.Shafaq is also instrumental in the administration of the mental dental Facebook group, and the Confidental phone line. Both these resources are essential for the dental profession as we find stress and anxiety are now at epidemic levels.

We will be discussing everything clinical, business but also social. So we'll be really peeling under the layers to get to know our guests in long conversations and trying to understand the wins and the troubles that we have as clinical dentists. It's a difficult profession, but it's also a very enjoyable profession. One of the other motivations that I have for this podcast, is talking about subjects that people don't really want to talk about, such as social media, such as depression and many more. This is Dentistry Unmasked.
