I decided to get into dentistry when I was in my third year in college and I really enjoy working with people. I really enjoy hearing people’s stories, but I also love working with my hands and it’s kind of the artistic side of dentistry that I really love. Those two things combined seem to fit well with skillsets that I had and we see such a wide range diversity of people that I get to meet and interact with throughout my day. And it’s just fun to hear people’s stories, to hear their backgrounds, to kind of hear who they are and what they do, and then to be able to help them meet their needs with their teeth and with their mouth and to help move them to a better place with their oral care. It’s very rewarding.rnrnI hope that my patients leave feeling cared for, feeling like they were listened to and heard, feeling like that I am more than just someone performing a service for them, but I’m actually someone who cares about who they are and what they do.rnrnYeah, so dentistry can be something that a lot of people have a lot of apprehension around. We are a practice that we want to do everything we can to make this as comfortable and experienced for you as possible. We are going to welcome you. We want you to come into our practice and feel cared for and feel heard and feel listened to and we’re here to meet your dental needs in the best way possible.
