Dr. Afshan Sultan
“Dentistry is my passion. It gives me the ability to use the gift of my mind to apply my knowledge, and the gift of my heart to treat my patients with compassion.
Over the past 20 years, dentistry has given me the perfect balance with my professional and personal life. Most of my patients who come to see me for the first time have experienced dental anxiety, and I pride myself on the fact that by the time they leave, they are no longer afraid of the dentist. I like interacting with my patients, not only by providing dentistry in a caring and comfortable manner, but also by discussing in detail how to maintain their dental health so that they can retain their own teeth for a lifetime.” – Dr. Sultan

Dr. Workneh’s favorite quote is, “A beautiful smile is the best gift you can give to your patients. So, get up, pick yourself up, wear that smile, let other people smile with you too.”
