Rockingham Dental Centre’s Dr Gerard Parkinson recently received a letter of recognition from the Dental Board of Australia WA committees.

This board has significant input into dentistry in WA, overseeing the procedures and practices and the regulation of the profession. This recognition underscores Dr Gerard’s contribution to Dentistry in WA.

Dr Gerard was already a widely regarded and loved dentist here in Rockingham, so it is fitting that he is now recognised by the wider Dental Community in WA for his “loyal and devoted” service to the board. The board thanked him for the skills, wisdom, experience, sense of fairness and insight he brought to the Committee.

The letter is from the Dental Board Chair of Australia, Dr Murray Thomas. The full version of the letter is below:
