Robbie has challenge to get his teeth into
An East Kilbride dentist has been named the President of the West of Scotland Branch of the British Dental Association.
Robbie Thomson, a GDP and practice owner of the Grey Gables dental practice in the Village in East Kilbride, said he was delighted to be chosen.

He continued: “I’ve looked after so many patients – often different generations of the same families – and it means a great deal that so many have trusted the practice with their dental care over the decades.”
