Hello, my name is Dr. Carlos Henao Ortega. I am a dentist that is passionate about his work and about helping others. I graduated last year (2023) and have been working at a private practice and corporate locations since then. I moved to California about 10 years ago and previously lived in Saint Louis, Missouri. Both my parents are dentists but that is not why I chose this profession, it is actually why I took so long. I explored my interests in being a physician and psychiatrist prior to dentistry. Once I actually shadowed my father (after shadowing many other professions), I realized that dentistry is my true calling. I have most of my family in Colombia and some in Miami Florida.  I look forward to working with a great team and providing great service to our community!
