Mr James Chang is a male Clinical Dental Technician who speaks Mandarin (as well as English).
James graduated from the University of Otago with a Bachelor of Dental Technology in 2009 and subsequently a post-graduate diploma in 2010 focussing on maxillofacial prosthetics. He then started working the following year while pursuing a Clinical Dental Technology diploma. As a clinical dental technician, James loves the combination of crafting and evidence-based knowledge behind what he does. He strives to understand his patients’ expectations and needs, navigate through the options available and work together to achieve the best possible outcome by offering genuine care and service. His previous boss used to say “I want the people that come through here to achieve more for themselves when they leave”. James has always kept that in mind with the hopes of passing on that encouragement someday.
James successfully acquired his first clinic in 2017 and is beyond excited and pleased to have expanded to his second in 2021. This has been one of his best personal and professional developments to date.
