Dentistry allows me to help others and make a difference in their lives, whether big or small. For some, this means enhancing their smile and helping them gain self-confidence. For others, it is restoring function so they are able to chew properly and enjoy the foods they like. Regardless of my patients needs, I treat each person with the same compassion I would give to my family. I take the time to listen and genuinely care about my patients well-being. Building strong, personal relationships with my patients is one of the most fulfilling aspects of my job. Dr. La

It was not a difficult decision to choose my path. My father is a dentist and I grew going to his office right after school to watch him work. I have so many fond memories of watching him interact with his patients and help them in many ways. I was intrigued by dentistry even at young age. It wasn't hard to believe that dentistry was the right path for me. And it was. Dr. La

To continue her commitment to providing patients with the best treatment available, Dr. La has never stopped learning. Dr. La travels all over the country to learn the most up-to-date knowledge and techniques from world-renowned dentists. Being an active member of many organizations also help her stay in network with other colleagues and be the leading dentist who provides the high level of dentistry patients deserve, right here in King George.

In 2018, Dr. La wasawarded a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry (FAGD).

Dr. La is one of the only 7% of general dentists who have achieved this honor.

When she is not working, Dr. La enjoys being at home with her husband Chris and their three children, Ashley, Joseph, and Caleb. Most of her free time is spent doing what a normal mother-of-three-kids would do - keeping busy around the house, shuttling the kids to their activities, preparing meals for the family, and just having fun with the kids.

As a minister's wife, Dr. La is also involved in many church activities, where her passion for playing the piano comes in handy. She also has a big heart to share her talent by volunteering at local nonprofit dental clinics, and participating in mission trips. Dr. La hopes to build Dahlgren Dental into a practice that gives back and be a channel of blessing, both locally and globally.

Our patients are, by far, my favorite part of my work. I love getting to know them both through the office and in our community. They are part of my extended family and I, like Dr. La and our staff, really care about their happiness and well-being.

I manage all aspects of the office, to ensurewe maintain a professional and comfortable atmosphere for our patients and team members. We all work hard to ensure everything goes smoothly so patients have easy, stress-free visits and leave with smiles.

Im originally from Pennsylvania and have traveled the world with my husband of more than 30 years whilehe served in the Navy. We have two grown sons and two dogs. My husband and I enjoy traveling, camping, biking, and time with family and loved ones.

I love the many rewards of working in the dental field. Its such a great experience working at Dahlgren Dental connecting with patients and support their insurance and financial concerns. What attracted me to dentistry was the opportunity it allows me to help patients in a meaningful way.

I enjoy greeting our patients when they come to our office. Its great to get to know them and they feel like part of my extended family. Ours is a small practice in a close community: we become friends with our patients, their families, our neighbors, and everyone else!

In our spare time, Steven and I make our own wine. I especially enjoyed making our Breast Cancer Survivor wine, sinceI am a survivor. Our whole family contributes to this hobby and we have a lot of fun!
