Dental defence organisation MDDUS has recruited two new advisers in their London office. Stephen Henderson and Susan Willatt have joined the MDDUS dental advisory team, bringing a combined 36 years’ worth of experience as dento-legal advisers. MDDUS head of dental division Aubrey Craig said: “We are delighted to welcome Stephen and Susan to our team.”
Mr Henderson qualified in London in 1984 and obtained a master’s degree in medical law (LLM) in Cardiff in 2005. After working in hospital practice, he went into practice in Oxford where he still works as a visiting specialist in oral surgery. Prior to joining MDDUS, he worked for another indemnifier (Dental Protection) for seventeen years. He was recently awarded an honorary fellowship by the Faculty of General Dental Practice. He said: “I am delighted to join the dynamic team here at MDDUS and look forward to supporting our members when they need us most.”
Ms Willatt qualified in London in 1983 (BDS) and gained an MBA from Warwick University in 2000 and a master’s degree in medical law (LLM) in Cardiff in 2004. She worked in general practice (NHS and private) before taking up a clinical and management post in a large dental corporate. In 2000 Ms Willatt took up a part-time post in the community dental service and started working for another dental defence organisation. She soon became company secretary and then head of dental services. Ms Willatt said: “I am excited to be part of a growing company and am really looking forward to providing support and advice for our members.”
MDDUS head of dental division Aubrey Craig said he believed the sustained growth was built on a firm commitment to quality and practitioners’ confidence in the indemnity model as the best way to protect patients and the profession. He said: “We are delighted to welcome Stephen and Susan to our team. MDDUS continues to offer personalised, rapid and flexible service in dento-legal advisory work, support for members in legal proceedings and day-to-day handling of subscriptions and queries.
