Meet Dr. Viet Le
Dentist
I was born in a small village in Vietnam and immigrated to San
Diego at the age of four. Growing up, my inquisitive nature led
me to gravitate towards the realm of science. Combined with my
personal journey with dental care, I understand the importance
of dental health and found my perfect career. My personal
experiences with dental care and diverse background allow me to
promote dental health to all communities. I believe in providing
quality and personalized dental care to promote a balanced and
healthy lifestyle. I received my bachelors degree from the
University of California, San Diego. I then attended the
University of California, Los Angeles and earned my Doctorate of
Dental Surgery degree. After graduating from dental school, I
pursued a general practice residency (GPR) at The University of
Washington. Since living in SoCal all my life, I knew I had to
move back home to Sunny San Diego, CA. In my free time, I enjoy
staying active by going to the gym and hiking. Furthermore, I am
a huge foodie and I love to explore all different cuisines.
