Meet Dr. Wang
I appreciate the opportunity to serve so many people, helping each establish optimal oral health and function, along with a smile they are confident in sharing.
Being an oral and maxillofacial surgeon means I meet people of all ages, from many walks of life. Ours is a diverse community and I enjoy learning from those who come to us for care: each person has stories and experiences to share and I learn a lot by listening. This broadens my understanding of the world and deepens my connection to the person and the greater community.
My line of work is taking out teeth, relieving pain, and restoring oral health, but my mission is building trust and helping others.

Beyond the Office
Originally from Canada, I now reside in Auburn with my daughter. Time with loved ones is my priority when I’m not in the office.
