Our staff is comprised of a highly talented and diverse group of professionals who make a unique team dedicated to professional excellence and service to others. Many of our clinicians are in training, such as those pictured below, who are residents in an ADA-approved post-doctoral AEG D Residency . In addition, a host of church and community volunteers support the FDC family as a life-giving source of light and love that enhances our capacity to expand and serve more. If you are interested in volunteering at the clinic, either as a dentist, hygienist, assistant, receptionist -- accountant, handy-man, or anything else! -- we welcome your gifts and contributions. Our clinic could not operate without the generous support of our community volunteers.
