Dr. Soraya Safi grew up with a passion for healing, believing from a young age that she could and wanted to improve the quality of the lives of others. From a young age, it became obvious that she was gifted with talents for art, science, mathematics, as well as for communication and overall a compassion for people.
Dr. Safi grew up in Las Vegas, taking on many leadership roles along the way. She decided early on that she would follow the path of medicine and went on to study at Pepperdine University. With a Bachelor of Science in Biology, she decided to attend UNLV School of Dental Medicine where she would later receive her doctorate; all while being near her family.
That summer, she began her own dental mission to the villages in rural Sonora, Mexico to give back and provide help to the local people. By providing free dental emergency care at least once a year, she helps to relieve many people of disease, discomfort, and pain. By volunteering, this allowed her to educate and spread awareness in areas that otherwise would not have any access to dental care. In the future, she hopes to grow her mission by having dental students and doctors accompany her to Mexico in order to reach more people in need.
Today, she is grateful to practice general and cosmetic dentistry in a biologically friendly manner in two locations in Orange County, Laguna Hills and San Juan Capistrano.
