Matthew grew up in Richmond and completed his undergraduate Biochemistry degree and his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from UBC in 2013. He practiced in Cranbrook, BC before making his way back to Vancouver to marry his lovely wife Sherry. He hopes to replicate the small town close-knit relationships he has grown to admire. Matthew enjoys all aspects of dentistry and values taking the time to learn the stories behind each person he treats. 

Matthew’s past and current memberships include the British Columbia Dental Association, College of Dental Surgeons of BC, Academy of General Dentistry, and American Academy of Implant Dentistry. A lifelong student, Matthew averages over 200 hours of continuing education every year, and in 2017, completed an intensive 300-hour implant curriculum with the American Academy of Implant Dentistry. Matthew currently studies at the Kois Centre, the Spear Education Institute, and the Pankey Institute. In the past, he has enjoyed organizing low-cost dental clinics for the less-privileged population of the Vancouver Downtown East Side and has provided free dental treatment at the Salvation Army dental clinic (first one in Canada) in Cranbrook, BC. Over the years, he has been on mission trips in Honduras and Guatemala. In his downtime, Matthew enjoys spending time with his wife Sherry and son Isaac. He looks forward to meeting and getting to know you!
