Meet Dr Garrie Rao (Principal Dentist)
For Dr Garrie, the most fulfilling part of being a dentist is getting to know a person, having open and honest discussions about their circumstances and together helping them achieve a healthy mouth and body. He enjoys sharing knowledge on simple home remedies and alternate natural ways to heal the mouth and body.
The Inspiration for Becoming a Dentist
My passion is to help people get over their fears, motivate them to improve themselves and avoid pain. I love the attention to detail and focus that dentistry requires.
