‘STAYING GROUNDED’: Northwood dentist reflects one year on after BBC show exit

 Published on: 25th February 2026   |   By: Naomi Greenaway   |   Category: Uncategorized

A Northwood dentist who was fired on national TV has reflected on what life has been like for him since the show.

Weeks into the popular BBC show The Apprentice, Dr Jana Denzel suddenly exited the boardroom last year. But he says his business mindset remains firm.

Asked how his life has changed he told NORTHWOOD&RUISLIPnews: “The biggest change has been realising the impact representation and storytelling can have not just professionally, but personally. At the core, I’m still focused on building something meaningful, staying grounded, and making my family proud.”

Despite not securing Lord Sugar’s investment, his dreams still came true. Jana was invited to Old Trafford in May 2025 and greeted by the former manager, Sir Alex Ferguson. For the United fan, this was huge.

Feeling optimistic for the future, he plans to open another clinic. Jana will also be appearing in a documentary Before It Reached Me that tells his parents’ journey from Sri Lanka to London.
