Doncaster lions due for a check-up

Sample News Big

A London dentist with a list of high profile clients has been offered a change of scenery.

The lions from Yorkshire Wildlife Park in Doncaster are being treated by dentist Dr Peter Kertesz. Dr Kertesz spends most of his time treating patients in London but has previously worked with elephants.

The lions were rescued from a zoo in Romania last year and brought to the wildlife park. The pride, which includes Jonny Senior, Cesar and Frida, as well as ten other lions, is now undergoing dental treatment. Dr Kertesz has started with the three lions because they are worst affected; so far, he has given the lions root canal treatment and will soon move on to the rest of the pride. Dr Kertesz has been joined by a team of dental professionals and anaesthetists.
