For the first time in the business’s history, Oar and Horan Dentists boasts a team of four Burdekin born and bred dentists caring for their community.
The team is proud to announce the appointment of Dr André Le Feuvre, a Burdekin local who spent his formative years in Giru before moving to Cairns to complete his dental studies.
Graduating in 2017, André gained valuable experience working in Cairns, Townsville, and Central Western Queensland throughout this time, working in private practice until his move back to the Burdekin in 2023 with his lovely wife Rachael and their children.
André has cultivated a clinical philosophy centred on producing high quality workmanship with a long-term outlook and employs a direct, no-nonsense approach to dental care.
Joining the Oar and Horan Dentists team in December 2023, André is proud to return to his community representing the business alongside principal dentists Dr Ramon Oar and Dr Todd Horan and fellow dentist Dr Sian Blakey.
Driven by a passion for the Burdekin community, the team at Oar and Horan Dentists are dedicated to personal and professional care.
Established in the early 1990s as Pulvirenti & Holmes in Queen Street, Ayr, the practise has undergone a variety of name changes over the years with Ramon and Todd commencing the ‘Oar and Horan’ partnership in 2007.
Ramon was born in Ayr and completed a Bachelor of Dental Science degree at the University of Queensland.
Upon graduating in 1993, he returned to the Burdekin to commence work at Pulvirenti & Holmes and celebrated 30 years of dental excellence at the practise in 2023.
Also born and bred in the Burdekin, Todd achieved his qualifications from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Dental Science with Honors in 2002.
He immediately returned to Ayr to commence his professional career as a general dentist.
In 2007, Todd entered into partnership with Ramon Oar and Oar and Horan was born.
Sian, meanwhile, grew up in the Burdekin and moved to Cairns to complete her studies.
She graduated from James Cook University in 2016 with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery and started her dental career at Oar and Horan in 2017.
The four dentists each bring their own dental passion to the business while remaining fully committed to helping people with their dental needs well into the future, offering a full range of comprehensive dental services including preventative and restorative dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, whitening, endodontics, oral surgery and implants.
They are ably supported by a talented team of hygienists, Rebecca Horan, Gaynor Ewens and Heather de Abreu, boasting a collective 80 years of dental experience, plus a dedicated team of receptionists and dental assistants who ensure the smooth operations of the practise.
Over the years, the staff at Oar and Horan Dentists has grown from five to close to 20, signifying rapid growth and increased commitment to the dental health and wellbeing of the Burdekin.
This growth ensures that the team can continue to offer appointments to new and existing patients in a timely manner.
