Tas

Dr Tasleem Khan

Dentist (BDSc)

Dr. Tasleem’s interest in dentistry started in his gap year during a stint observing his local Orthodontist. Seeing how dental treatment could transform people’s smiles to boost their confidence and have a hugely positive impact on their lives convinced him to pursue dentistry. As a result, Tasleem loves giving patients a smile they love to display whether it is through a sparkling clean to performing aesthetic dentistry procedures.

Tasleem feels especially fulfilled when he can help patients, who have had previous negative experiences, feel comfortable in the dental chair. He treats every patient with the care and respect he would give to his family and friends whilst consistently attending courses and seminars to stay up to date with the current techniques.

Outside of work, Tasleem likes to keep active through kickboxing or playing footy with friends and winding down whilst watching the latest releases! He’s also an avid Brisbane Heat and Broncos fan and when he’s not at the game, you can find him glued to the tv cheering the team on. Feeling inspired during summer, Tasleem will occasionally escape up to the coast and try his hand at surfing (he doesn’t like to hear it, but he’s got a long way to go).

Nousha Asaad

Business Manager

Nousha joins the team as a Business Manager with a Bachelor Degree in Economics from Cairo University and an MBA from Griffith University. Nousha is mostly responsible for the back-office work at our practice and although she does not get to interact much with our patients, she finds it most fulfilling to receive their positive feedback about their experience at Bald Hills Dental.

Nousha is a big believer in the connection between one’s oral health and their overall heath and sees dentistry as always evolving and improving in its techniques and services.

Outside of the practice, Nousha enjoys reading, cooking and spending time travelling with husband, Dr Emad Hanna and their 2 daughters. As she puts it, “Having 2 daughters in different academic stages makes planning for a family vacation that suits everyone’s different schedules and varying vacation times quite challenging. However, I like to think I mastered it!”
