Meet Your Dentist: Cristina Gomez
CRISTINA GOMEZ
GENERAL DENTISTRY
GDC Number: 262964
Our dentist, Cristina Gomez, is originally from Portugal. She qualified in Porto in 2015 and relocated to the UK in 2016, where she has been working in Braunton ever since.
Cristina likes all aspects of general dentistry and has a special interest in nervous patients, children, and oral surgery, where she plans to expand her qualifications very soon.
She is very compassionate and empathetic and always does her best to give patients a positive and calming experience during their visit to her at the practice.
Outside of her work, she enjoys reading, shopping, and keeping herself fit. She particularly enjoys being at a CrossFit box or walking at the beach with her very spoiled dog, Pacho.
