Our Team
Meg Takiguchi - Dentist
Dr Meg Takiguchi was born and raised in Japan. Itching for adventure, Meg left home as soon as she finished high school and commenced her studies in Canada before earning her Doctor of Dental Medicine at the University of Western Australia.
Meg was an established Dentist in the Great Southern region but the desire for a warmer climate eventually bought her and her family to beautiful Geraldton. Meg and her family have fallen in love with the community, the weather and the Mid-West region in general.
When not at work Meg enjoys spending time in the great outdoors, running, swimming and of course, quality time with her family.
Meg looks forward to being your family dentist for many years to come.
