Mission Trip to Gujarat, India
Early Roots & Lifelong Values
I was born in the southern part of India, where generosity and service were woven into the fabric of my upbringing. My uncle, a devoted priest, was one of my greatest inspirations. He dedicated his life to serving the poorest of the poor in remote Indian parishes.
He often reminded me, “Giving is more blessed than receiving.” His words stayed with me, shaping my values and my commitment to service.
My journey to becoming a licensed dentist in the U.S. was anything but easy. I practiced dentistry in India for a few years before moving to the U.S., and I have seen both sides of the coin—the struggles of underserved communities and the abundance of resources available in more privileged areas. That contrast deepened my desire to give back.
Building the Clinic Together
This mission in Gujarat wasn’t originally my project—it was a collaboration with a dear friend from Houston, TX, who runs a thriving, top-tier dental practice.
He is deeply involved with Lakewood Church’s outreach mission, and when he shared his vision for a clinic in Gujarat, I knew I wanted to help.
With my expertise, I assisted in setting up the clinic, ensuring it had the right infrastructure to serve the community.
The response from some of my dental colleagues in India was overwhelming—their willingness to contribute was a testament to the power of collective goodwill.
Ongoing Mission & Fulfillment
While I am not involved in the day-to-day operations, we carefully selected a local dentist who aligns with our principles and mission.
Recently, I checked in with my friend and was overjoyed to hear that the clinic is thriving. It has become a beacon of hope for many underprivileged families in the area, providing essential dental care that they would otherwise go without.
This experience reaffirmed what my uncle always believed—that true fulfillment comes not from what we gain, but from what we give. Knowing that this clinic continues to change lives is one of the most rewarding aspects of my journey.
Making a Difference, One Smile at a Time
When you choose to work with me, you’re not just selling your dental practice — you’re joining a mission to make dental care accessible to those who need it most.
I proudly donate 20% of my commission to initiatives that uplift and improve dental health in underserved communities around the world.
​​
My long-term goal is to reach people who have never had the chance to visit a dentist — to bring relief, restore dignity, and create healthy smiles where they’ve never existed before.

Your sale has power. Together, we can create a ripple effect of good that goes far beyond the dental chair.
