A Message From Dr. Rhodes
I have no higher professional privilege or responsibility than that of making sure I give nothing but the best treatment for each and every patient who places their trust in me. Entrusting your oral health to someone can be a huge decision, and I am always grateful and mindful of what an honor it is to receive. I feel extremely blessed to be in a profession I truly love, and I look forward to practicing dentistry every day.
Education and Continuing Education
- Providence College – BS in Biology, 1995
- Boston University – Doctorate of Medical Dentistry, 1999
- Berkshire Medical Center – Residency Program, 2000
Although my formal education is complete, I never stop learning about dental advances. There is always something to learn or expand upon, so continuing education is an essential part of my job. My highest goal is to offer my patients the most comfortable, efficient, and dependable treatments available, and my continuing education helps me provide that.
Experience and Dedication
After more than 22 years in this profession, I enjoy it more than ever. Dentistry is both an art and a science, and I enjoy using my skills to help people in my beloved community. Each day, I get to meet and interact with a diverse group of people from whom I learn valuable lessons. Every patient is special and unique, and I enjoy getting to know every one of them!
Our practice utilizes the most current technology in order to ensure the highest quality of care. Some advanced tools that we use are CEREC® single-visit crowns and digital radiography. Another facet that sets our practice apart is our talented staff. They work well together and enjoy what they are doing, and it shows!
Family and Community
I was born in Mexico and raised in North Providence. My husband Harry and I have two children, Shea and Harrison, as well as a Labradoodle named Portia. I love spending time with family, especially since my children are getting older and looking to go away to college. My husband and I also belong to a CrossFit gym, which is a great stress reliever!
I feel it is extremely important to give back to the community. As a dentist, I possess a unique set of skills that not everyone can offer to those in need. As a volunteer with the Rhode Island Mission of Mercy and Donated Dental Services, I am able to share these skills with those less fortunate.
