Meet the doctors
Before dental school Dr. Jean spent three years as a hygienist in Highland Park, after a dental hygiene degree from the University of Pennsylvania. Watching her build one of the premier practices in the DFW Metroplex is what sent Leslie into dentistry, and the two now work side by side.
Dr. Farida Hirani and Dr. Lauren Samas practice general dentistry here, with the same patient-first rule.
Completed USC's advanced standing program for international dentists, where she made the Dean's list, after her Bachelor of Dental Surgery from Nagpur University. Known for a meticulous approach, and a mom of two boys.

It was a wonderful experience. I felt I was seen as a worthy person with a problem who needed help, not the next name in an appointment book. I was blown away by the friendliness married to competence and professionalism exhibited by everyone in the whole clinic. Thanks again and again!Dorothy P.Patient since 2016
