Dr Robert Kinloch has been re-elected as Chair of the British Dental Association (BDA) Scottish Dental Practice Committee (SDPC). His re-election was unopposed.
Dr Kinloch is a general dental practitioner who practises at Alexandria, near Loch Lomond. He graduated from Glasgow Dental School in 1977 and has been in general practice since then, initially working as an associate before establishing his own practice in 1981. In addition to serving as Chair of SDPC, he also chairs the BDA’s Scottish Council and the UK Healthcare Policy Group. He has served as SDPC Chair since January 2010.
Thanking his committee members for electing him, Dr Kinloch said:
“It is a huge privilege to be re-elected as Chair of SDPC. I’d like to thank my committee members for their continued support. Although we have seen some very positive developments in general practice in Scotland in recent years, there are many challenges still ahead of us. I look forward to leading SDPC as we debate and address them.”
Dr Gerard Boyle, a general dental practitioner in Glasgow, was elected as Vice Chair. Also elected to serve on the SDPC Executive were Drs Robert Donald, John Glen, Derek Harper and David McColl.
