Candy Adamson

Lead Dental Nurse

I needed a change from retail, so the chance to retrain as a dental nurse with Clyde Munro came at the right time. I loved learning new skills and meeting fantastic people through the Strive programme. After qualifying, I learned from the lead nurse and eagerly took on the role when it became available in another Clyde Munro practice. Now, I am the lead nurse across two practices and enjoy the variety of the job. Clyde Munro, especially the Strive programme, has provided great support and opportunities for growth and career progression.
