In 1991, Dr. Amy Hao began her journey as a dentist when she graduated from the Loma Linda University School of Dentistry, along with the completion of a bachelors degree in biochemistry from the University of California, Riverside, and a year of advanced general dentistry at the University of California, San Francisco.

Dr. Hao is currently a member of the ADA, the CDA, the Tri County Dental Society, the American Association of Oral Systemic Health, and a fellow of AGD (FAGD). One of her greatest goals as a dentist is to inspire patients to be better about their overall health starting with their oral health and to help them learn how these two are interconnected. Dr. Hao is grateful and deeply awed by the trust our patients place in us and will strive hard to ensure they receive quality care to improve their oral health!
In her spare time, Dr. Hao is an avid gardener and amateur florist, having completed several arrangements for the Riverside Art Museum, the UCR Botanical Gardens and the National Charity League. She is married with one daughter and a son.
