The foundation of Herries St Dental was established in 2010 with a clear vision: to create a practice where people from all walks of life could obtain good quality, comprehensive dentistry at a reasonable price. This commitment includes more complex services, such as implants and orthodontics.
That original ethos of treating every patient like a cherished member of the family—and treating the entire team with respect—is still at the heart of everything we do. This worthy philosophy allowed the practice to grow, and Herries St has been a trusted workplace for many like-minded, experienced dentists over the years.
In 2021, the practice entered its next chapter when it was purchased by Dr. Steven Humphery and Dr. Gina Irwin.
A Foundation Built on Local Ties
Dr. Gina Irwin and Dr. Steven Humphery share a unique and strong connection—they both grew up in the small town of Chinchilla, just two hours west of Toowoomba, and even attended Chinchilla State High School! Chinchilla is a small place, and their families are friends, which has formed a solid foundation of trust.
Sharing similar values, priorities, and a unified treatment philosophy, Dr. Humphery and Dr. Irwin lead a harmonious and dynamic workplace dedicated to your family’s health.
