Meet Our Dentists
Dr Cheng-Yu Hung (Yoyo)
Principal Dentist
After graduating from Griffith University in 2017, Dr Yoyo worked across Queensland in both public and private sectors, before moving to Nambour in 2019. It was Nambour’s great community spirit that drew him here and he plans on residing locally, and serving the Nambour community, for many years to come.
Dr Yoyo enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, but he is particularly passionate about oral surgery and smile makeovers. Getting patients out of pain or giving them confidence to show off their new smile are the most rewarding parts of his job.
When he's not at work, Dr Yoyo is either watching soccer or training for a triathlon — cycling is his favourite!
Dr Yoyo can’t wait to meet you. Click here to book an appointment with Dr Yoyo now.
