Dr Vamsi Talluri

DENTIST

After graduating from the University of Otago in 2010, Vamsi chose Canberra as his preferred place of practice. With the best part of a decade’s experience in dentistry, Vamsi has treated everything from A to Z. His patients regard Vamsi’s extensive dental knowledge, chairside manner and personal touch. Vamsi has a particular passion for working with nervous patients and making sure their visit is stress free and easy.

When not at the practice or studying the latest dental techniques, you can find Vamsi riding his motorcycle through the Cotter Range or enjoying a coffee on Lonsdale Street. As a proud Canberran, Vamsi is extremely excited to see Gungahlin come into its own and is excited to be a part of its vibrant growth.
