Member Spotlight

Elijah Leverett

The oral cavity is the window to the rest of the body. As a dentist, I want to help bring patients to a state of oral health and guide them to feel empowered, so they can take control and maintain their health and wellbeing.

Seema R. Prakash

Growing up with a father who was a devoted nurse, I knew that I wanted to be just like him. He was able to create relationships with patients that stretched far beyond the nurse-patient dynamic. I knew that dentistry would allow me the opportunity to not only treat my patients, but interact with them on a personal level.

Blair Dieterlen

Both my father and my grandfather were dentists, so my whole life I’ve grown up around dentistry. I saw how much joy dentistry brought them, and as I got older and spent more time helping at my dad’s office, I saw how much joy a dentist could bring to their patients.
