This strategic expansion underscores our unwavering commitment to delivering the highest level of support to dental professionals. By strengthening its panel of experts, All Med Pro ensures that trusted, high-quality dento-legal advice is always accessible, empowering clients with the guidance they need to navigate complex professional challenges with confidence. 

Meet the advisors

Brian Westbury

Brian Westbury has had a distinguished career in dentistry, successfully running two dental practices. He has played a significant role in dental governance, serving as secretary for four local dental committees and representing the profession on the General Dental Services Committee. Additionally, he chaired the Dentists’ Health Support Trust for a decade. 

With over 25 years at Dental Protection, Brian rose to the position of senior dento-legal adviser, where he was instrumental in NHS regulations and provided expert guidance to registrants facing GDC cases.  

In 2019, he joined All Med Pro as a dental adviser, further strengthening his commitment to supporting dental professionals. He is also the former academic dean of the faculty of forensic and legal medicine at the Royal College of Physicians. Holding degrees in dentistry, law and psychology, Brian brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to his role. 

Ravi Rattan

Dr Ravi Rattan is a highly accomplished dentist who has been a practice principal and owner since the 1990s. He has made significant contributions as a dental advisor and clinical lead for NHSE England and has extensive experience as a dento-legal advisor. He also serves as a guest lecturer for various dental universities across Europe, sharing his knowledge with future dental professionals.

Ravi was recently made a fellow of the College of Dentistry in recognition of his accomplishments within dentistry, having previously been awarded MFLLM in recognition of his expertise in the dento-legal field. 

Stephen Henderson

Stephen qualified in London in 1984 and later earned a master’s degree in medical law (LLM) from Cardiff in 2005. After working in hospital practice, he established himself in private practice in Oxford while also serving as a visiting specialist in oral surgery until March 2020. 

With 25 years of experience in dento-legal advisory roles, he began his career at Dental Protection before moving to MDDUS, where he served as head of the dental division until mid-2023. 

Since then, Stephen has worked independently as a dental adviser, focusing on lecturing, writing, and providing expert witness reports. 

‘We are delighted to welcome Brian, Ravi, and Stephen to our growing panel of dento-legal advisors,’ said Adam O’Keeffe, one of the founders and directors at All Med Pro. ‘Their collective experience and industry recognition reinforce our position as a leading provider of dental indemnity insurance, offering unparalleled support to our clients.’

This expansion comes as part of All Med Pro’s ongoing efforts to enhance its services and provide exceptional value to dental professionals, from sole practitioners to large practices.
