Personal Bio

Dr To has a variety of interests that include traveling, scuba diving, and snow boarding, but most of all spending quality time with her husband and daughter.

Patient Impact

“I had a patient who had never been to the dentist. She was very scared and never smiled. I performed several procedures to restore her teeth and periodontal health. Now the patient is very happy, smiles all the time and, most importantly, is no longer fearful of the dentist!”

Personal Quote

"With my strong sense of family and passion for creating healthy smiles, it is my goal to provide each of my patients with the compassion and quality that I do for my own family. There is no greater gift than when my patients hug me and tell me how grateful they are for the care they received from me and the warm environment we created for them."
