Dr. Anh was born and raised in a hard-working family in Vietnam. His mother was an elementary school teacher who is strict but very gentle and caring. She inspires him to treat everyone with a genuine and loving heart. His father is a gentleman full of kindness and talent. He teaches him to be compassionate and to use his gifts to serve others.
Dr. Anh and his family immigrated to the United States in 2010 and have since chosen Delaware County in Pennsylvania as their second home. He used to work in the kitchen at a McDonald’s for 13 months while attending Community College of Philadelphia. Inheriting the love of teaching from his mother, he enjoyed tutoring natural sciences part-time while studying at Drexel University. He met his wife, Linh, at their friend’s birthday party, and she has been his greatest support, his biggest comfort, and his strongest motivation to help him achieve his DMD from Temple University Kornberg School of Dentistry.
Dr. Anh chose to pursue dentistry as his way to serve others. His goal is to give each patient a comfortable and relaxing dental experience. His treatment planning philosophy is simple: he does for his patients what he would do for his family. He is a firm believer in conservative and preventative dentistry and values open communication and transparency with his patients.
When not practicing dentistry, you can find Dr. Anh hanging out with his wife and their three little boys, Tam, An, and Huy. He and his wife are also choir members and volunteer Vietnamese language teachers at the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary church.
