A Conversation with The Pain-Free Dentist - Dr. Diksha Batra 😊
I had SUCH an amazing conversation with Dr. Diksha Batra in this episode. And I can't wait for you to listen! She is an amazing woman, with quite the bio! She is a prosthodontist by education and a clinician practicing for over a decade in Mumbai, India. A decade of rich and diverse dental experience led her to pioneer the unique field of Pain-free dentistry in India. She is fondly called The Painfree Dentist" for pioneering work in eradicating dental phobia. Her award-winning practice is home to thousands of national & international patients and was ranked amongst the top three dental clinics in Mumbai as per the “Times All India Lifestyle Hospital & Clinic Ranking Survey.  Dr. Diksha Batra is also the founder of "Angel Dentists Network" - India’s First All Dental NGO. A platform for dentists to give back to the underprivileged sections of society with their time and skills. In their latest endeavor of “Making India Smile” they collected 50000 dental kits to be distributed to the underprivileged section of the society who don’t have access to the basic requirements to maintain good oral hygiene.  Her passion to teach and share, led her to establish "RYS University" – a unique education platform that trains doctors in non-technical life skills. Her experience of managing staff across three companies for several years has led her to create systems and training which have transformed a team of skilled working professionals in her team. The "Dental Assistant Training Program" is her endeavor to share these systems in a way that all practitioners may optimize their teams and build better dental homes for their patients.
