Wania Minhas

I am a motivated, hardworking, and reliable individual with a strong interest in dental nursing. With a strong interest in patient care and oral health. My experience in customer service at K-Pharmacy and my radiography work placement has helped me develop communication, teamwork, and attention to detail skills.

I am eager to continue learning and develop my skills further within a healthcare environment. I work well as part of a team and I'm eager to learn and to be organised. In my free time I enjoy learning new languages such as Italian etc.
