Shetal Parikh

Growing up with a father in medicine, it felt natural for me to gravitate towards pursuing a career in healthcare . I was always drawn to Dentistry where I felt it could make a meaningful difference in people’s lives, even in small ways , while finding the work deeply rewarding . I completed my dental education at New York University College of Dentistry, followed by a General Practice Residency at Bronx Lebanon Hospital Center and Montefiore Medical Center. After moving to Suwanee, my husband and I established our own dental practice, and I’m proud to share that we have been serving the community for nearly 19 years. Giving back through dentistry has always been important to me. I’ve loved working with children through school-based dental health presentations and screenings, and participating in initiatives such as Give Kids A Smile, the Special Olympics, and community health fairs. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy painting, practicing classical Indian dance, and traveling with my family. Leadership to me is leading by example. I wear many hats, including being a patient's dentist, an employee's boss, and a daughter's mother. I have learned that compassion, responsibility, and decisiveness are the necessary skills to balance these positions and gain the trust of those who depend on you. A leader creates an environment where their team can function to their best abilities and continue to build off that strong foundation.
