Based in Rondebosch, Cape Town, I qualified from the University of the Western Cape with my BChD (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) degree in 2015. I completed my community service in Kimberley and have since been working in private practice.
I completed my postgraduate diploma in dentistry (PDD) specialising in paediatrics in 2018. I am currently in the process of becoming an Advanced Breathwork Practitioner through Breathwork Africa.
I pride myself and providing my patients with high-quality dentistry and customising treatment plans to each individual’s needs, affordability and profile. I encourage all patients to be involved in the decision-making regarding their dental treatment and strongly believe that all patients should be respected, empowered and responsible for their own health I always ensure that I take the time out to explain all the different options, and the pros and cons of each.
My love for children and paediatrics has deepened since having my own little girl in 2023. I feel I am able to relate to my patients and their parents on a much deeper level since becoming a mom, and I’m even more determined to create happy and positive experiences in my rooms.
Asheeqah, commonly known as Ash, qualified as a dentist in 2019 at the University of the Western Cape. I handed her the reigns just before I went on maternity leave in 2022, and has since become a firm favourite with our patients. She’s a brilliant general dentist, with a special passion for conservative, restorative and paediatric dentistry. She’s super warm, loving, chatty and compassionate, and always goes the extra mile to make your experience stress-free and positive. Outside of the practice, Ash is an incredible wife and mother to her squishy little baby boy who we are all obsessed with. Ash provides exceptional patient care and quality service, and I am infinitely grateful to have her on the team.
Zainab, affectionately known as “the fairy” of the practice, brings a soft and gentle touch to her work. A 2019 graduate from the University of the Western Cape, she honed her skills during her community service year in Kimberley, serving the military. In the office, she keeps things fun while delivering top-notch care, with a focus on conservative, preventative, and pediatric dentistry. Outside of work, she channels her creativity through painting and drawing, and enjoys outdoor activities like hiking, scenic walks, and cycling. Zainab is an absolute joy to have at the practice, bringing immense value through her skill, warmth, and dedication to patient care. Her presence not only enhances the team’s dynamic but also elevates the overall experience for our patients.
Dr Aqeelah Soeker graduated as a dentist in 2019 and completed her community service year at Galeshewe Day Hospital in Kimberley. She enjoys being a generalist and has developed a wide range of interests within dentistry. She has a passion for restorative work, particularly aesthetic cases, and has recently delved into biometric dentistry and the align, bleach, bond workflow. Periodontics is another area she finds fulfilling, especially the challenge of restoring oral health to its foundation and understanding how systemic diseases influence oral health—a curiosity sparked by her experience treating older patients. Outside of work, Aqeelah embraces her creative side through a variety of crafting hobbies. She loves cross-stitching, embroidery, crocheting, scrapbooking, and journaling. While she describes herself as introverted, she finds joy in spending quality time with family and friends, often in relaxed settings—usually on someone’s couch 👵🏽 Aqeelah has settled seamlessly into the practice this year, quickly building strong connections with both the team and our patients. Her approachable nature and skill have made her a favourite among patients, and we feel incredibly fortunate to have her as part of the team.
