Meet the Team

Dr Vicky Ho

Hi, welcome to our website and thank you for stopping to read a little more about us. I have to start by saying that I am privileged to be married to a wonderful man who is an inspiration and support in my everyday life of running my own practice as well as being a mum to 2 very active, busy, extremely wonderful young boys, and to acknowledge the wonderful team that I have behind me in building the practice of our dreams. Without them, none of this would be possible.

I graduated from dentistry in 1993 and since then have embarked on a wonderful journey of learning, growing and furthering myself in this field. I am thankful that I have chosen a profession that gives me so much joy, and that I can truly say that I LOVE MY JOB! I love the people I work with, I love the patients I see, who become like extended family/friends to me. I am so thankful to be in a profession that allows me to really make a difference in many peoples’ daily lives, in helping people to feel better about themselves, in building relationships that last years and years.

Dr. Vicky Ho with Dr. Bill Dorfman
from Extreme Makeover, USA

I have dedicated myself to continuously attending post-graduate courses after leaving dental school, not only to keep myself up to date with the latest materials, techniques and technology, but also in areas that I have a passion for, that give me joy. I constantly strive for ways on how we can do things better, how we can improve our skills, knowledge, and customer service. I dedicate countless hours into education of myself and my team as I always believe, “ The higher you climb, the further you see… the further you see, the less that you know…..The less that you know, the higher you climb!!!”

I live my life by the following rule: “live like this is your last day, and learn and plan like you’ll live forever.” I’d like to make every moment count, and make a difference to people’s lives. I hope that I can make a difference in yours too.

Dr Vicky Ho graduated in 1993 from the University of Western Australia, receiving honourable prizes for Best Student in her year for Preventive dentistry and Oral Medicine and Oral Surgery.

Other Team Members

NADIA
Director of Client Care and Practice Coordinator

Words from Nadia

Hi my name is Nadia Velkoski & I will be the first smile that you see when you enter our lovely practice. I will help you with anything you need to know from answering any questions or queries through helping you with financial arrangements and scheduling your treatment.

I started off as a Dental Assistant with Dr Adrian Kat (Dr Vicky Ho's husband) for 4 & half years & then moved onto my Practice Coordinator Position with Dr Vicky Ho.

I have been in the dental industry for 6 years now & took a 2 year career break to work with Bankwest. I have now returned to my role within the practice as I missed the friendly contact with clients that I so enjoyed when I worked with Dr Ho.

Working with Dr Ho has shown me that when you love a profession, it manifests through the determination, enthusiasm & passion she has for her patients & her job. Dr Ho's drive to always be the best that she can be shows in the level of client care reflects in her standard of work.

Because she also wants her team members to strive to be the best in their field, she has also given us many opportunities for team training and advanced education. I have had the opportunity to travel interstate while working with Dr Ho to further enhance my Practice Management skills within the dental industry. Working with Dr Ho I have learnt so much both at work & on a personal level.

I feel that I am a valued Team Member & build value for the patients that we treat. Dentistry at our practice is about looking after the whole person & helping them reach their goals to a truly better smile & giving them the overall best patient experience that they could possibly have at a dental practice.

At Advanced Dental Artistry Mosman Park we stand for nothing less than excellence & we trust that you will enjoy this privilege when you visit us.

TANIA
Treatment Assistant

Words from Tania

Hi, I am Tania, and I will be your treatment assistant while you are attending our lovely practice. I became interested in dentistry after doing work experience with my cousin and her dentist in City Beach. 14 years ago, I completed my DCA course to be a fully qualified dental assistant. Having worked for my previous employer for 12 years, a change was needed for me to get back the love that I had of the industry…………….and What a Change!!

The girls as well as the environment are warm and inviting. The comprehensive dental treatment that Dr Vicky Ho and her team perform is second to none. The smiles and the lives that we see changed make my job as Vicky’s “Right Hand” not feel like a job but an absolute pleasure.

Here at Advanced Dental Artistry Mosman Park we cannot wait for you to become part of our dental family where you too can have a SMILE –CHANGING experience!!

LAURA
Dental Hygienist

Words from Laura

I am Vicky’s Hygienist, where I take on the role of helping you achieve and maintain a healthy beautiful smile. From gum health and oral hygiene management, to getting your teeth brighter and whiter with our premier whitening treatments, I can help you achieve and keep the smile of your dreams!!

A little about myself, I qualified in 2004, in London. The practices that I had most of my experience at were prestige cosmetic practices in the city, therefore was most happy to seek out Dr Vicky Ho’s practice in Mosman Park. Dr Ho invests a lot of time and money in continuous staff training and development with even trainers coming to train our team from the prestigious Las Vegas Institute, the premier cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry centre in the USA.

Working in cosmetic dentistry has given me such reward throughout my career. You don’t realise how giving a smile to a person can transform their life!!

I arrived in Australia in October 2007 and have been very fortunate to find a practice and dentist like Vicky’s. The team are an absolute joy to work with and what a lovely atmosphere we have to work in! I feel very at home here.

Our Philosophy, Vision & Mission

Our Vision

To experience the joy of creating beautiful smiles for people through gentle excellence in dentistry, and building life-long relationships based on integrity, trust, caring and friendship.

Our Philosophy

OUTSTANDING DENTAL CARE – The Value Our Patients Deserve: Our competent team enthusiastically provides gentle care and attention to detail to ensure that our patients enjoy the entire experience of achieving the smile of their dreams. From the moment they enter our practice, they will be surrounded by warm smiles, and pampered by kind spirits, and experience outstanding service and quality equalled by no other.
OUR PATIENTS – Our Reason for Being Here: Patients who understand that superior quality, preventive and restorative dentistry is the way to long term health and comfort, are the foundation of our practice. We educate and motivate our patients to take a dedicated role in maintaining optimal oral health for a lifetime. They believe that the treatment we recommend is that which we would provide for our closest family and friends. In return for our best efforts, they agree to follow our advice, keep their appointments and meet their financial obligations.
EXCEPTIONAL TEAM – Our Greatest Asset: Our committed team are loyal to the practice and to each other. We have integrity and are responsible in our roles as well as in helping each other. Each member achieves excellence by taking pride in their work and exceed their own job requirements. We communicate with honesty, courtesy and respect. We see education as a key to success, as an ongoing commitment in our daily working lives. We are willing to learn from mistakes and one another, and willing to teach others. We remember that in working together, everyone achieves more. We find a balance in their lives such that work and home life do not overlap. We relax, and think happy, and make it enjoyable for all. We remember that systems only work if all follow them. We constantly strive to better ourselves in our jobs and personally. We all function together in pursuit of our VISION.
BUSINESS PRINCIPLES – Rock Solid: We are a rock solid practice based on sound business principles. We realize that our office must be profitable to be a viable asset to our community, and that the highest quality materials and service are more costly. We charge a fair fee that is commensurate with the quality of service we provide. The team is compensated on productivity rather than longevity. The team is provided with the necessary information to know what is expected of them. They understand profitability and assist in monitoring the statistical trends of the practice.
THE FUTURE – Growing through Dentistry: We strive to be our best, always. We anticipate the future by setting yearly and long term goals, as a business as well as for each individual. Our commitment to our patients is to evaluate new products, procedures and educate ourselves so that we may provide the very best care. The doctor provides an atmosphere conducive to growth and learning and makes the financial investment necessary to promote this growth. We expect doctor, team and patient to be better human beings as a result of their experience here.
LEADERSHIP – Inspirational Vision: Visionary leadership provides inspiration and encouragement that enables everyone to reach new heights. We provide an environment that is democratic and permits free exchange of ideas. By constantly challenging ourselves we become better human beings and accomplish things we never dreamed possible. We provide and environment conducive to growth, allowing that mistakes are sometimes made when trying in earnest to climb to new heights. We sustain growth by setting high standards and building strong relationships. Our decisions are based on strong value system, clear vision and an objective view of facts. We accept these responsibilities and realize that by ourselves we face serious limitations but with our team can be something wonderful.

Charity Work

Kat Family - ROOM FOR DREAMS Project Chiang Rai 2007

Geoff - before

Five young boys are the reason we built “BAAN NAI FAN” or “ROOM FOR DREAMS”.

These young boys, ages ranging 7-12 were staying in an abandoned pig sty behind their school, from Sunday night to Friday so that they could go to school. There homes were in villages that were 3-4 hours walk away, and with roads so bad, there were no other alternatives for transport to school except by foot. Due to the long distances that they could not cover every day, they brought with them food from home for a week and spent the week at the pig sty. The big boys looked after the little ones.

What we built was a basic dormitory, so that they could have a roof over their heads, and a clean floor to sleep and play on. We managed to put in electricity and a fan, which is a real luxury for them. There is ample room for the 5 boys, but also room for many more children who actually do not have the means to go to school because of the distance they have to travel. Now this gives many more kids the opportunity to have an education.

Geoff - before

We called the dormitory “ROOM FOR DREAMS” because not only does it provide a safe place for rest, but we want these children who use this room to have big dreams. Dreams for success, happiness, abundance, which now with an education behind them they can fulfill these dreams.

We, as a family, only dream to can make a difference to others. Our projects with the children of Chiang Rai have helped us fulfill our dreams. We are blessed to have a job that not only allow us to change the lives of our patients, but enables us to do dream projects like these.

Adrian and Vicky Kat
