Dr. Levine earned her DDS degree at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio in 1999, and shortly thereafter moved with her young family to Southern California.

My name is Philander and I have been working in the dental field for 17 years. I have always found the dental office to be an exciting environment to work in. Most important to me are connecting with the patients, the complexities of each individual case, and also maintaining the highest professional and ethical standards. In my free time, I am dedicated to athletic recreational activities. I am an avid indoor and outdoor climber as well as an amateur league volleyball player. Currently I am furthering my dental education by studying toward my dental hygiene license. The dental practice is my home and I plan on enjoying a long career doing what I love.
