Meet Dr. Anam Khalid
What’s your role here at CPW Dentistry and what does a typical day look like for you?
I’m a general dentist at CPW Dentistry. A typical day here for me includes making patients feel comfortable and cared for while addressing their dental needs.
What do you like most about working here?
I love the sense of teamwork at CPW Dentistry. Every team member does their best and it really shows in the quality of care we’re able to provide for our patients.
Why dentistry?
My career decision was made at the age of ten, when a dental assistant put Vaseline on my lips during a dental visit. I knew then I wanted to be able to provide the same level of care for all of my patients.
What are you passionate about?
I’m really getting into self-care recently and seeing how it affects every aspect of my life. It really is true that you cannot pour from an empty cup.
Who has influenced you most when it comes to how you approach your work?
My dad provided for his five children and wife by working as a New York City cab driver. He worked seven days a week, rain or shine, oftentimes working on the house in the morning before heading out to his real job in the afternoon. His perseverance has taught me to give my all to everything I do, no matter if it’s work or personal issues.
