Excellent course run by Hatem. The teaching quality is second to none and a it’s a great ‘follow on’ course from any undergraduate training. Hatem has also been available after the course for any help afterwards. Highly recommend it.

I completed my diploma in Periodontics with Hatem last year as part of the London cohort. The course is focused primarily on the practical skills with the majority of sessions focused on this. Hatem has also been instrumental in planning my first cases and evaluating outcomes - the ongoing mentoring has meant I’ve developed after the course and has allowed me to feel confident applying the techniques on my patients.

If you want to increase knowledge, skills and practical skills in Periodontology, this is the course to go on. I have learnt so much that has helped with my understanding and treatment planning in all areas of restorative dentistry, and has unprovoked my clinical skill tremendously. If I ever have a question about a case, I message Hatem and he responds almost straight away with good advice and suggestions on how to manage the case. I would highly recommend anyone looking to improve their knowledge in Periodontology to sign up for Perio Academy.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve just completed the year-long course with PerioAcademy, and I can honestly say it’s been one of the most valuable experiences of my dental career so far. Dr. Hatem is an incredible teacher — knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely invested in his students’ progress (and he’s also a comedian) The course is really well-structured, combining detailed theoretical content with hands-on sessions that are directly applicable to day-to-day practice. I found myself looking forward to each session and coming away with something new and practical every time. It’s boosted both my confidence and skill set when it comes to diagnosing and managing perio cases, as well as taking on surgical cases. I’d highly recommend it to any dentist wanting to take their understanding of periodontology to the next level. Thank you, Dr. Hatem and the PerioAcademy team!

I’ve had the pleasure of being mentored by Hatem during his postgraduate diploma course and as a clinical mentor at my dental practice. He creates a relaxed, supportive atmosphere that makes learning feel natural, even during complex cases. His clinical knowledge is outstanding, and the advice he gave me has been genuinely invaluable. What really sets him apart, though, is his ability to balance professionalism with approachability—every session was not only educational but also genuinely enjoyable. Having him at the practice to guide me through live cases was an incredible opportunity that boosted my confidence and skillset immensely - a great mentor and great company!

I had the pleasure of attending the Crown Lengthening Surgical hands-on course with Hatem. The course was well structured with plenty of surgical practice. Consent forms and patients instructions materials were also provided. Highly recommended - the technique helped me in managing various clinical situations when placing deep restorations and building up fractured teeth.

Great teaching, practical and hands on, and the biggest thing is support during and after the course. I would recommend the course to anyone who wants to improve their understanding of perio, and be able to offer the appropriate treatment options for their patients. I learnt non surgical treatment of perio, surgical approaches, crown lengthening, regenerative procedures, and use of lasers in perio. Location was easy to get to, in Manchester, and the group was very supportive as a whole. Thank you Hatem 🙏 Sanaa Kader Indigo Dental

I have thoroughly benefited from my learning at Perio Academy which has transformed my clinical practice. I am now able to offer my patients greater services and confidently treat various periodontal conditions. I would highly recommend the course to any dentist wishing to improve their clinical skills

I attended the diploma course last year and would highly recommend. I feel so much more confident in dealing with periodontal issues in general practice. What sets this apart from the many other course I have done is the aftercare which is always available and rapidly responded to. Hatem is genuine and knowledgeable with his support and creates an active learning environment both throughout the course and after. This also shines through in the group support for each other which is so unique in dentistry. Any opportunity to hear Hatem speak is a worthy investment of your time.

I have recently completed Hatem and Duncan’s soft tissue grafting course. It was a phenomenal course taught by highly skilled educators and clinician’s. The content and practical sessions are excellent. Duncan and Hatem have been fantastic offering support with tricky cases and advice. Highly recommend

Fantastic course. Hatem is a great teacher with a relaxed and thorough approach to teaching. The skills learnt on the diploma were very useful and applicable to real life day to day practice which has opened up new opportunities in terms of career opportunities and patient options. I would absolutely recommend to anyone wanting to get a sound understanding and develop the skills for routine periodontal surgeries, applicable to day to day practice.

I did the 1-year perio course with Hatem a few years ago, and it genuinely changed the way I approach periodontal treatment. It gave me a completely new perspective on perio, and since then, it’s massively impacted my day to day clinical work. I’ve gained so much more confidence surgically and now comfortably take on more complex perio cases that I wouldn’t have considered before. Hatem is a fantastic teacher. Knowledgeable, approachable, and creates a relaxed, enjoyable learning environment. The ongoing support after the course is also a really nice touch and makes you feel part of a community, rather than just ticking off a CPD box. I’m now seriously considering doing the diploma off the back of this course. Couldn’t recommend it more.

Fabulous Course on Soft tissue grafting provided by very skilled clinicians who took the time to communicate clearly and ensure complex techniques were understood. Hatem and Duncan worked incredibly well together in covering all elements. The best course I’ve attended in some time!

Hatem, is an exceptional educator. He continues to support and provide ongoing mentoring support years after completing the diploma with him in 2022! He is always approachable and just the nicest guy! I highly recommend the course for anyone wanting to level up their soft surgery skills! You don’t need any prior surgical experience to do this course!

This was an excellent course. I Used the training both in our general practice and to improve my implant soft tissue skills. Hatem make the topic interesting and relevant to your practice whether it be a general practice or speciality. He also has been there for me for over 7 years giving me remote advice on cases when needed. overall a excellent course, very good value, and a must for those looking to give best patient care.

I had the pleasure of completing the PGDip in Periodontics at PerioAcademy London, led by Dr. Hatem, and it was truly an amazing experience. The course, covering both surgical and non-surgical periodontics, was incredibly rich, informative, and well-structured. Dr. Hatem is not only highly knowledgeable but also a fantastic mentor who explains everything clearly and with genuine passion. I learned so much throughout this journey and now feel much more confident in my clinical skills. The hands-on sessions, detailed lectures, and supportive environment made the whole experience very enjoyable and rewarding. A big thank you to Dr. Hatem and the entire PerioAcademy team for this valuable opportunity. I highly recommend this course to any dentist looking to deepen their knowledge and advance their periodontal skills!

Hatem is so approachable, he's a brilliant mentor. I did perio academy back in 2016 and he still responds to my messages and queries! Shows that he really cares and provides great support. Thank you again!

I would highly recommend Perio Academy to anyone looking to gain confidence with hands-on periodontal skills. By the end of the course, I felt fully prepared to integrate what I had learned into my everyday practice. Along the way, I connected with like-minded colleagues, and the ongoing support and shared learning from this network has been truly invaluable. The course is well-structured, and the hands-on sessions definitely challenge and enhance your clinical abilities.
