About Camilleri Dental Medical Clinic

Established in 1960 by a trio of esteemed practitioners, Camilleri Dental Medical Clinic has been a cornerstone of healthcare excellence in Sliema. Founded by Dr. Anthony Camilleri, a general dental practitioner, and Dr. John Camilleri, a general medical practitioner, the clinic began its journey in a premises located across the road from our current location. Prof. George Camilleri, an oral surgeon, would subsequently join the practice as a partner.

The legacy continued as the next generation joined the ranks. Dr. Anthony’s son, Simon Camilleri, graduated as a dentist in 1981, enriching the clinic’s offerings. Dr. John’s son, Dr. Timmy, earned his medical degree, further expanding the clinic’s medical capabilities.

In 1996, the clinic welcomed Prof. Camilleri’s children, Nigel and Audrey Camilleri, who both qualified as dentists from the University of Malta. Dr. Audrey pursued postgraduate training in paediatric dentistry, enhancing the clinic’s focus on comprehensive family care.

In 2002, a significant milestone was marked as the clinic relocated to its current premises in Sliema. Simon, Nigel, Kevin, Audrey, and Timmy united as partners to uphold the esteemed family name and continue the tradition of excellence. Over the years, numerous associates have joined the clinic, contributing to its growth and continued commitment to exemplary healthcare.
