#155- Mum’s the Word - Fareeda Daar

Back in 2020, Payman and Prav sat down for a fascinating chat with up-and-coming cosmetic dentist Zainab Al-Mukhtar.   Zainab spoke so fondly of her inspirational mum Fareeda Daar that it only seemed natural to Fareeda’s story.   She describes how she settled on oral surgery after realising a medical career wasn’t her thing and recounts her journey to the UK from Tanzania via Romania, Yemen, Oman and Vienna.       Fareeda also discusses the trials and tribulations of running a busy practice while raising a family and reveals the secrets behind the success of her Harrow on the Hill practice.   In This Episode 02.12 - Inspiration 06.26 - Study in Romania 14.29 - The UK and Oman 32.29 - Practice purchase and the secrets of success 38.42 - Risk and resilience 47.01 - Social media and confidence 51.50 - Instilling value and values 54.04 - Blackbox thinking 01.11.06 - Plans 01.16.55 - Fantasy dinner party 01.17.55 - Last days and legacy About Fareeda Daar Fareeda studied dentistry in Romania before moving to the UK to gain a master’s degree in dental implantology.   She was the principal dentist at Park View Dental in North West London from 2000 to 2010 and has been the principal at Harrow on the Hill dental practice since 2010.
