Education and Early Career

Growing up in a family of medical specialists, Dr. Sri developed a fascination with medicine and human behavior. A dental injury during her teenage years sparked her interest in dentistry, a field that beautifully amalgamates arts, science, and medicine. She earned her BDS from MCODS, Mangalore, India in 1999 and completed her MDS in Endodontics in 2003. In 2007, Dr. Sri moved to the U.S. and completed her residency in AEGD at the Eastman Institute of Oral Health, Rochester, NY. Here, she rediscovered her joy in providing comprehensive patient care, particularly for those with dental anxiety and special needs due to disability or age. This experience refined her clinical skills and deepened her understanding of the connection between oral health and overall well-being.

Professional Practice

Dr. Sri started her clinical practice in the USA at a corporate dental office in Stafford, Virginia. Recognizing that the corporate model did not align with her practice philosophy, she transitioned to a dentist-owned practice in Dale City, Virginia, where she thrived in an environment that prioritizes personalized care and patient well-being.

Holistic and Compassionate Care

Grounded in the belief in the body’s remarkable capacity for healing, especially within the oral cavity, Dr. Sri adopts a holistic perspective in her practice. She sees each patient as a whole individual with unique needs and aspirations, focusing on enhancing their general well-being and fostering smiles that radiate from within.

Outside of Dentistry

Outside of dentistry, Dr. Sri is a foodie who enjoys music, books, walks, and hikes. She cherishes spending time with her husband, two teenage sons, extended family, and close friends. You can often find her exploring the trails of Reston with her dog, Beam.
