Guy grew up in Halifax and studied dentistry at Bristol University. After qualifying, he worked in London as a dentist in practice and in the hospital dental service before deciding to see something of the world. He left for Australia in 1989 and worked as a dentist in Sydney, then in the outback of Western Australia, travelling between three gold mining towns.
After returning to the UK, he studied orthodontics at Manchester University. He then began working as an orthodontist in Halifax in October 2000 where he first launched The Brace Place. In 2005, he moved the practice to Cross Hills where he and the team now provide the neighbouring communities with quality orthodontic treatment. In addition to the above achievements, he has also lectured to trainee orthodontic therapists at the University of Central Lancashire and co-authored a book on managing medical emergencies in dental practice.
Guy lives in Cross Hills with his wife who still play frequent host to their five grown up children.
