Dr. Dirushka Naidoo

Senior Dentist

Welcome to my practice! Our team of dental professionals is not only highly qualified and skilled but comes with invaluable experience that puts them at the top of their game.

Our team

I graduated from Wits University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS), receiving the PROSSA Award for excellence in Clinical Fixed Prosthodontics. After completing my community service at Galeshewe Day Hospital in 2012, I worked with the Gauteng Department of Health from 2013 to 2022, gaining invaluable experience across various clinics in the Johannesburg metro region, including Orange Farm, Soweto, the CBD, and Alexandra. During this time, I took on leadership roles, managing the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) program and serving on several committees.

I also pursued further education, earning an MBA from Wits University in 2018, focusing on social entrepreneurship for accessible care, and a Master of Public Health (MPH) from the University of Johannesburg in 2022, which explored occupational health risks for dentists in the public sector.

Seeking global experiences, I relocated to Shanghai, China, where I volunteered at Jiahui Hospital. This opportunity allowed me to navigate language and cultural barriers, gaining insights into the Chinese healthcare system and enhancing my understanding of diverse patient care approaches.

Now settled in beautiful Cape Town, I’m excited to bring my diverse experiences to my private practice. My commitment to exceptional dental care is rooted in accessibility and quality, ensuring every patient feels valued.

I look forward to serving the Cape Town community and helping you achieve your best oral health!
