Further, Dr Sue’s own personal experience with one of her own children having been diagnosed with Autism & ADHD, has given her a much broader understanding of the needs of families & children with special needs. Outside of dentistry, Dr Sue enjoys the great outdoors, time on the water and travelling with her husband, three kids, two cats and one dog.
