History
My residency in the dental specialty of periodontics was completed at the University of Washington after attending UCSF School of Dentistry. My training was completed in 1993 and I then moved to Marin County where I joined an established practice with another periodontist. Over time, our practice styles diverged somewhat, so I left and began working in my area of specialty within family dental practices where I could practice preventative as well as surgical periodontics. I started working with Dr. Michael Hing in 1997, a friend and colleague whom I knew from UCSF. I have also in the past worked part-time in Petaluma in group practices which I enjoyed. My practice now is solely focused in San Francisco, in the Sunset /Parkside area with Dr. Michael Hing exclusively within his office. We offer the best combination of excellence in family dentistry combined with the expertise of an experienced, compassionate periodontist. A unique and winning combination.
