Dr Steve Atkin
BDSC MDSC(QLD)
Dr Steve Atkin has been providing care to Ethos patients for almost 20 years, and over this time has found that the motivation displayed by the entire Ethos team is truly what makes the Ethos experience and atmosphere truly unique.
Originally from Deception Bay, Steve moved to Thursday Island where he set up the School Dental Service throughout the Torres Strait. Steve became a qualified orthodontist in 1996, and has continued his work with children through the School Dental Service in Brisbane. Steve is also the Visiting Dental Specialist at the University of Queensland’s School of Dentistry, where he gives lectures to undergraduate and postgraduate students.
His passion lies in helping patients with special needs, particularly those with cleft lip and palate problems. He participates in cleft palate clinics at the Royal Children’s Hospital and the Royal Brisbane & Women’s Hospital, and is a member of the Queensland Craniofacial Centre at the Mater Children’s Hospital.
In Steve’s spare time he loves anything to do with the water, from heading to the beach to boating and swimming. His other hobbies include motorcycle riding, driving, and gardening!
Steve works at our Redcliffe and Toowong branches.
Member of the Queensland Craniofacial Centre at the Mater Children’s Hospital
