Dr YADIR SINGH – Oral Surgeon

I am a specialist Oral Surgeon and I completed my training at the University of Sydney.

I started working in Tasmania in 2008 when I moved from my hometown of Durban, South Africa. I have worked in Smithton, Burnie, Devonport, Sheffield and King Island in North-West TAS where work included private practice and public service.

After moving to Hobart, I worked as the Senior Dental Officer for the Tasmanian Health Service prior to leaving Tasmania to complete specialist training at the University of Sydney. After graduating as a specialist, I continued to travel to Hobart for work until the events of 2020 made travel impossible.

I have been a lecturer in Oral Surgery at the University of Sydney where I have taught postgraduate students in the Oral Surgery specialist training program. Before moving back to Hobart to continue specialist practice, I have been the acting Head of Department in the Department of Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine and Dento-Maxillofacial Radiology at Sydney Dental Hospital.
