He has also gained experience working in the public sector completing a summer elective program in Monash Health Dental Services where he was providing treatments for emergency patients.

Outside of dentistry, Dr Arik enjoys playing soccer, drumming and photography.

JY graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Melbourne and had worked in private practice in Ballarat for a number of years. It was there where he was lucky to be mentored by good people who imparted excellent dentistry skills and more importantly, the ethics of a kind dentist. He is passionate in delivering the highest level of patient care and changing people’s traditional expectations of a dental visit. JY loves meeting people from all walks of life and listening to their stories. Making things look pretty is also something that JY enjoys very much and he continually extends his knowledge with further courses to provide the most up-to-date treatments for his patients. When JY is not a dentist, you will find him maintaining beautiful water gardens or chilling with his two dogs and wife.
