Doctors & Dental Surgeons who have won the Top beauty pageants in the world. This post dedicated to all health professionals who are working hard to help patients and also to make their own dreams true.

Being a doctor or a dental surgeon or a health professional is tough. To have a career as health professional one has to let go of many other hobbies and dreams. Simply because health professionals are always short of time and always under the pressure of managing patients & academics.

But with changing times, we are now witnessing more & more qualified health professionals like dentists, surgeons etc. working hard to pursue their other passions too. They are ready to work hard to succeed in being a good doctor and also to succeed in their other dreams.

In this post, we will talk about two doctors who won two of the most highly competitive beauty pageants in the world, Miss World & Miss Universe

Miss World 2014 Winner Miss South Africa, Rolene Strauss

Rolene Strauss is a medical student at the University of the Free State (doing her MD). She was born in Volksrust, South Africa, to Theresa, a nurse, and Hennie Strauss, a doctor.

Rolene got engaged to D’Niel Strauss (No relation) in December 2014. They were married on Saturday 6th February 2016 at Laurent Wedding venue, Lourensford wine estate, Somerset West near Cape Town.

She won the Miss World title when she was 22 years old and into the 4th year of medical school.

Background in Pageantry

Strauss placed in the top 5 of Miss South Africa 2011 when Melinda Bam became the new titleholder of Miss SA 2011.

She returned two years later to compete in the 2013 Pageant and was crowned as Miss South Africa 2014 representing the Free State city of Bloemfontein on March 30, 2014, at a ceremony held at the Sun City Super Bowl, South Africa.

As the winner of Miss South Africa 2014, Rolene had been expected to compete at both Miss Universe 2014 and Miss World 2014. Traditionally, the winner of Miss South Africa competes at both the international pageants. However, since she had won the Miss World 2014 crown, she could not compete at Miss Universe 2014.

Rolene Strauss is a test tube baby that was born on 22 April 1992. In fact, she was the first test tube baby that was successfully conceived in Bloemfontein after the parents found it hard to conceive. “After five long years (and most of their savings), I popped out of a test tube,” she wrote. “A year after my birth my brother was, like my mom says, “sent from heaven.

Strauss was among 122 contestants who competed for the coveted title in 2014. During the ceremony, contestants wore colorful costumes representing their countries and territories.

Rolene Strauss is an inspiration for every health professional.

She is a successful model, pageant winner & a hard working doctor. She also promotes the importance of staying fit through her social works and social media campaigns.

 So, there is a lot you can learn Dr. Rolene Strauss.

Vision for Dentistry

With her background as a dentist and the newly won Miss Universe crown, she realizes that she can make a great impact on oral health awareness. Even before the competition started she has told in an interview that if she won said wanted “to advocate for dental and oral hygiene”.

She added: “I want to help people, I want to understand people, I want to meet people, that’s why this is a dream for me.”

 

As far as we can think, it’s a great achievement. But still, there has been some online backlash by trolls. We at dentalorg.com feel that every dentist is a unique individual with the potential to achieve their dreams. Miss Iris Mittenaere is an inspiration to all such dentists to be passionate and pursue the things they want to achieve in life.

 

She is also an inspiration for women in dentists. We are not saying in terms of looks or physical beauty. Every woman is beautiful. What women dentists can learn from this story is the spirit & passion for achieving something that you really want. Ladies, you can be amazing dentists and at the same time achieve laurels in other things you are passionate about. So, go for it.

Aishwarya Rai had bagged the title in 1994, followed by Diana Haydon in 1997, Yukta Mookhey in 1999 and Priyanka Chopra in 2000, the last for India.

In the top five round, Chhillar was asked which profession according to her deserved the highest salary.

“I think a mother deserves the highest respect and when you talk about salary it’s not always about cash but I feel it’s the love and respect that you give to someone. My mother has always been the biggest inspiration in my life.

“All mothers sacrifice so much for their kids. So, I think it is the job of a mother that deserves the highest salary,” Chhillar said to a wide-applause.

Chhillar is the sixth Indian to win the coveted crown, which was first won by Reita Faria back in 1966.

According to Chhillar’s profile on the Miss World website, her father, Dr. Mitra Basu Chhillar, is a scientist at the Defence Research and Development Organisation, while her mother, Dr. Neelam Chhillar, is an associate professor and department head of neurochemistry at the Institute of Human Behaviour and Allied Sciences.

The 20-year-old Chillar was as beautiful as she is now. But her impeccable grooming and polishing brought her where she is today.
