“I have always enjoyed helping people whenever possible, so I knew as a child that I would work in the healthcare field. Being a dentist puts me in the unique position of being able to make people feel better about their smile and themselves. That promotes additional confidence which leads my patients to a happier life. We strive every day to educate our patients on the importance of a healthy mouth.”
