“Like many others, a painful dental experience made me avoid going back until I absolutely had to. I was in my senior year at The University of California Los Angeles UCLA, studying human anatomy and planning to become a physician, when a toothache forced me to face my fears.
I was terrified but mustered the courage to go, and this dentist at The University of Southern California USC changed my life. He was so professional and caring. That one appointment made me fall in love with dentistry so much that I decided to switch careers. Now, I get up every day and hope to give my patients the same painless and fear-free experience.
I focus on gentle, attentive, and aesthetically excellent care that makes every visit as comfortable as possible. In our office, we take the time to get to know you – not just your dental needs, but you as a person.”
