Waverley Private Hospital would like to introduce Dr Mehrnoosh (Nu) Dastaran, a Victorian trained oral and maxillofacial surgeon, who graduated in medicine in 2005 from the University of Bristol and Dentistry in 2010 from King’s College London, as the highest achieving candidate in both degrees.
After earning specialist registration, she underwent sub-speciality fellowships in craniofacial trauma and orthognathic surgery at the Royal Melbourne Hospital and craniofacial surgery and reconstruction at King’s College Hospital, London.
Nu plays an active role in undergraduate and postgraduate dental education at the University of Melbourne and has a keen interest in mentorship of dental graduates as well as oral and maxillofacial surgery trainees in Victoria. She is a Senior Lecturer at Charles Sturt University. She has researched collaboratively with the Victorian branch of the Australian Dental Association (eviDent Foundation) and has completed a Master of Philosophy in Dental Science by Research in the field of Implantology at the University of Melbourne Dental School. She works as a consultant at The Royal Melbourne Hospital, Royal Dental Hospital of Melbourne, and in private practice in Melbourne and regional Victoria.
Nu’s technical ability is complemented by her holistic and empathetic approach to patient care. She works closely with dentists and other specialists to provide the best possible tailored treatment options.
“My priority is to provide comfortable and personalised care that meets the specific needs of every patient.”
