DR GABRIELLE JACKSON
I Graduated from James Cook University in Cairns, Queensland, with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 2014. I have experience working in both public and private practices in rural areas around Queensland and Australia.
I relocated to the Whitsundays from Cairns in 2015. I have experience in all areas of general dentistry with a special interest in preventative and restorative dentistry, I especially value building meaningful relationships with my patients.
My primary focus in running the practice is to provide our community with honest and compassionate dental care that supports our patients in achieving, and maintaining, optimal oral health as it relates to their overall health and wellbeing.
A true North Queensland local, I love to spend time in our exceptional corner of the world exploring our local national parks and Great Barrier reef.
I occasionally enjoy an overseas holiday with my partner Louis, and it always brings me back with a deep sense of pride and love for Airlie Beach, grateful to know that this beautiful place is home.

DR JONATHON KELLARIS
I graduated from James Cook University in Queensland, with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 2016. I joined the Cannonvale Dental team in 2017, however I have also had the opportunity to practice in both the public and private sectors of dentistry as a locum dentist whilst travelling around Australia, as well as supervising dental students at the University of Adelaide. During this time, I gained a further interest in Preventative Dentistry, Cosmetic Dentistry and Oral Surgery.
Growing up in the small coastal town of Yeppoon, I moved to Airlie Beach after university to be closer to family and now call the Whitsundays home. Outside of Cannonvale Dental, I spend my time fishing, relaxing around the Whitsunday Islands, going travelling whenever the opportunity arises and watching any sport that catches my eye.

LEANNE MITCHELL
(Hygienist)
I am passionate about educating and empowering my patients to reach their optimal oral health condition through the prevention and treatment of dental diseases including periodontal disease and dental decay.
I grew up in New Zealand where I obtained my Bachelor of Health Science degree endorsed in Dental Hygiene in 2007 from the University of Otago before relocating to Airlie Beach the following year and have made it my home ever since with my local husband. I am a long serving member of our team and have been a part of Cannonvale Dental for 10 years. I am dedicated to creating a positive experience and take pride in my loyal patient base and the relationships we have built.
As a dental hygienist, my scope of practice includes routine dental cleaning and deep scaling, dental radiographs, tooth whitening, dental impressions, oral hygiene and dietary advice. I also work with state-of-the-art equipment, including an Airflow Master™ that maximizes patients’ comfort by using heated water, as well as effortlessly removing stubborn stains.
Away from the dental surgery, I am a proud mum of two beautiful children which keep me very busy and active. As a family we love to get out on the water and enjoy the outdoors, I also enjoy running and weightlifting to help me keep fit and healthy to keep up with the kids. I also enjoy quieter activities like reading when I get the opportunity.

Throughout my time with Cannonvale Dental, I had the opportunity to travel our beautiful country for 18 months – exploring, fishing, diving and soaking up the beauty of Australia. Eager to return home to the stunning Whitsundays immersing myself back into our close knit community and relaxed lifestyle I was lucky enough to be greeted with open arms to rejoin the Cannonvale Dental Family.

ELIZA HALL
The Great Barrier Reef and all things fishing motivated my move to the Whitsundays in 2021, taking me away from the Gold Coast to live a more chill but active lifestyle.
As a Dental Assistant for 6 years, I was very happy when I was invited into the Cannonvale Dental family.
When I’m not working, you will find me out on the water. I love spending all of my spare time boating, fishing and camping.

I have been part of the Cannonvale Dental team for 4.5 years now. This is honestly the best work place I have worked in (theres been a few over the years) from the amazing management to the best team of DA’s.
My free time consists of raising 2 young children which means parks, plays and swimming.

LAUREN ATKINSON
I started working with the wonderful team at Cannonvale Dental at the end of 2022. While still in year 12, I underwent a traineeship studying a certificate 3 in dental assisting, which i successfully completed in September of 2024. As a dental assistant I find it very rewarding supporting patients through their treatment, with each smile being perfectly unique.
I spend my time outside of work making memories with my friends and family, exploring and enjoying the beauty of the area we live in. Having grown up as a local on a cane farm I realise how lucky we are to have the wonderful Whitsundays at our door step with so much experience.
