Merging the beauty of art with the precision of science, dentistry is not just my profession—it’s my passion. Becoming a dentist and having the opportunity to positively affect my patients’ health is something I view as an immense privilege. My journey in dentistry began at UC San Francisco, where I graduated in 2006. With Sacramento being my birthplace and having spent my undergraduate years at UC Davis, it felt natural to return to Northern California to establish my dental practice after my time in the Bay Area.
My dental philosophy is rooted in a comprehensive approach, enabling me to manage fundamental treatments like cleanings and fillings and more intricate procedures such as oral surgery and orthodontics. This comprehensive care ensures that families can find all their dental needs met under the roof of the Placerville Dental Group.
Though my early career was heavily focused on dentistry, marrying Nancy in 2010 marked the beginning of my journey as a family man and father. Our family grew with the arrival of our daughter Ella, followed by our son Liam, and in 2017, our twin boys Jonah and Derek joined the family. Gardening serves as my sanctuary at home, offering me a peaceful retreat after a day’s work.
In the office, I treat each patient with the same care and consideration I would extend to my family. With many of my relatives living close by and frequently relying on me for their dental care, I deeply understand the common concerns that patients bring to the table. Thus, when I advise treatment for any family member, be it a child, parent, or grandparent, my recommendations sincerely aim to provide the best care possible for their dental health.
I eagerly look forward to welcoming you and your family to our practice. I invite you to visit us and meet our team at our conveniently located office. We pledge to treat your family with the same level of care and dedication as we do our own.
