My clinical specialty is oral and maxillofacial surgery (OMS). OMS is the surgical branch of dentistry with a broad scope of practice. I surgically treat diseases affecting the face, jaw and mouth. I strive to treat each of my patients as if they were my family.
My teachers inspired me to be a clinician, and my patients inspired me to stay in the game. OMS is a bridge between dentistry and surgery. It is uniquely positioned to serve patients of all ages to improve their general and oral health.
I am also a researcher dedicated to conducting meaningful clinical research that will positively impact our patients and the patient care we provide.
