Welcome to Our Practice, I am Dr. Maher Rashid. I am a lifelong Floridian. My decision to become a dentist was made as a teenager. Dentistry has provided an opportunity for me to utilize both my clinical knowledge as well as my artistic abilities to offer excellent, precise, and beautiful dental care to all of my patients. What you can count on in my office is that you will be treated with respect, honesty, and with a genuine commitment to your oral health and what is in your best interest.
DMD: University of Florida College of Dentistry, Gainesville, FL; graduated with honors BS: University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, Nutritional Sciences; graduated with honors Honors/Recognition: Oral Medicine and Diagnosis, Proficiency in Removable Prosthodontics, Outstanding Achievement in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery Memberships: American Dental Association, Florida Dental Association, West Coast Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry, Pinellas County Dental Society.
At Dolphin Dental Group we are constantly working to improve our dentistry thorough our commitment to lifelong learning. We also work with our great team to provide the best experience possible in a medical office, especially in todays climate of impersonal healthcare. Lastly we continually invest in the latest technologies to bring the absolute best care to our patients.
I am blessed to have a wonderful wife, Diana, and Three Beautiful Daughters: Yasmin, Nadine, and Sarah. Family time is my favorite activity outside of the office. We reside in St. Petersburg and feel that our area provides the perfect mix of great schools, excellent healthcare, diverse activities, and obviously awesome beaches and parks.
A little bit about me: I am a graduate of Xavier University (BS in Natural Science) and received a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) from Ohio State University . I have been living in Pinellas County since 1980 and have 2 sons and one daughter. They have grown into outstanding and inspiring young adults who are now pursuing their dreams. I am so proud of each one! I also have been blessed with an amazing husband, Craig, three terrific stepchildren and their husbands and grandkids! God is good!
Dr. Rashid is a native Floridian and an honors graduate of the University of Florida for both undergraduate and dental degrees. I chose him to team up with because our philosophies of putting patients first and providing excellent dentistry are well aligned. He is very experienced in all aspects of dentistry and prides himself on staying current with technology and continuing education. I trust him completely to take care of your dental needs.
