About Kingwest Dental group of clinics

Meet Dr. Sobhi After attaining my honors bachelor of science degree from the University of Toronto, I went on to pursue graduate level studies in Dentistry at the University of Toronto, completing the intensive four year program, and graduating with a Doctor of Dental Surgery in 2007. Believing that education is an ongoing commitment and a lifetime of learning, and that dental education must be a continuum that extends throughout one’s professional career, I have been an active member of a variety of dental and allied professional organizations including the Canadian and Ontario Dental Associations, International Congress of Oral Implantology, and the Academy of General Dentistry. I am fortunate to be practicing dentistry and am thankful that I am as passionate about the profession as I was when I first graduated. Recognizing my patient’s treatment ambitions, acknowledging and alleviating their dental phobias, and creating smiles that change life stories give me the utmost pleasure. I truly believe that dentistry is more than just treating teeth and gums. It’s about treating people, and a holistic approach to healthcare. Over the years of my practice, I have come to realize that lack of communication, and patient education are elements commonly neglected due to the fast pace nature of most dental practices. As such, I have equipped Kingwest Dental with technology and software programs that will enable me to educate and inform patients about different aspects of diagnosis and treatment options. This allows patients to become partners in their own dental health. Providing outstanding care to patients who expect the very best is my ultimate goal. With such equipment, great staff, my commitment and passion, you as a patient will receive the outstanding care you are looking for. I feel lucky and blessed to have been guided by certain people who have made an impact on my life, and professional vision for those I am eternally grateful. Once again welcome to my practice and I am looking forward to meeting you in person. — Dr. Venus Sobhi
