Our Doctors

Dr. Chester was born in Beijing, China and moved to California as a young child. Having been spoiled by her grandparents until she came to the United States, Dr. Chester needed a great deal of dental work as a child. Thankfully, her father had become a dentist in California and Dr. Chester received excellent dental work which changed her life completely. From her experiences with dental infections as a child, Dr. Chester realized at a young age that she wanted to be a dentist like her father so that she could help people like herself have a better quality of life.

Dr. Karim, originally from Houston, completed his undergraduate education at The University of Texas at Austin before earning his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree (DDS) at The University of Texas School of Dentistry in San Antonio. As a dental student, Dr. Karim was involved in class leadership and research initiatives, becoming the first student from his school selected to conduct dental research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Washington, DC.
