About me
I have always wanted to do work with people in a health care setting, perhaps because I grew up with a pediatrician mom who passed on to me the pleasure of working with children and the desire to elicit pleasant feelings from them even in a medical setting. After graduating with a degree in Dentistry and Prosthodontics, I completed a residency in Orthodontics and have been working exclusively in orthodontics ever since. Orthodontics plays a very important role in enabling harmonious growth in children and teens but, especially in recent years, it is also finding wide acceptance among adult patients.
I work daily to restore smiles to small and large patients.
