Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
Dr. Stephanie had a very inspiring mentor and role model to look up to throughout her childhood and young adulthood—her dad, Dr. Howard, and her grandfather! She was always drawn to the healthcare field as a little girl. She also loved the idea of getting to help others in tangible ways, while at the same time building lasting relationships.
Being a general dentist enables the doctor to get to know her patients on a personal level, usually for many years. Dr. Stephanie loves the chance to foster these connections with those in the community, which she believes is what makes general dentistry so unique.
