Education
Doctor of Dental Surgery
Virginia Commonwealth University – Richmond, Virginia
"My mission is to provide patients with world-class dental care using the best technology and the most updated information to help them understand and maintain their oral health. The oral cavity is the gateway to the rest of the body. I aim not just to fix a tooth but to connect to each patient at a human level, in which they are comfortable sharing their general health concerns. Being a patient can be very stressful, and as a doctor, I will do my best to earn your trust. I practice minimally invasive dentistry using the best technology because I believe, 'the best dentistry is the least dentistry.'"
