Dr Claire Yap graduated from Griffith University with Bachelor of Oral Health in Dental Science (Class I Honours) and Graduate Diploma in Dentistry. She received Academic Excellence awards for each year, the prestigious Pierre Fauchard Award, Sir Samuel Griffith Scholarship and the University Medal.
Before joining the TUH Dental team, Dr Claire gained invaluable experience working at the Gold Coast in both private and public sectors. She has also been a clinical supervisor at Griffith University. Although she has spent the last 10 years at the Gold Coast, she has always called Brisbane home, having grown up and gone to school in the city.
Committed to the pursuit of excellence in patient care, Claire is dedicated to maintaining and developing her skills in every aspect of dentistry. She is also known to be compassionate and caring and she will strive to make your visit to TUH Dental clinic as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
