I believe in the power of laughing and spreading out positivity by a warm smile in bettering the health of people. I was born and raised in Tehran, Iran, and grew up in a loving, educated family who prioritized their children's well-being and education above everything else. I knew from early on that I was passionate about health and science. My ultimate goal was to cure and help people feel better. The rewards of helping others to become healthy and happy were so high for me that I decided to enter the health field and become a dentist. I studied at Azad University of Tehran, Iran, and graduated in 2006. I have been practicing for 12 years as a general dentist and now have the great pleasure of being a part of the IQ Dental team.
