Get to know Dr. Takiar! 😊
Growing up, Dr. Takiar learned to play the sitar, so her mom suggested she try dentistry thanks to the manual dexterity music gave her. Needless to say, mom was correct, and now Dr. Takiar cannot imagine doing anything else with her life!
Dr. Takiar started her college career at Johns Hopkins University for her Bachelor's degree in Neuroscience and French before going on to get her Master's degree in Bioethics at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She received her Doctor of Medical Dentistry (DMD) degree from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine and completed her Certificate in Advanced Graduate Studies in Pediatric Dentistry (CAGS) at the Boston Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine.
Dr. Takiar still plays the sitar and also likes to spend her free time running, reading, and watching classic TV shows, with I Love Lucy and Tom & Jerry being her favorites.
