Why He Became an Orthodontist
Dr. Alkhoury’s first personal exposure to orthodontics occurred when he found out his 17-year-old sister needed braces. As she completed treatment, he got to see firsthand how her smile completely transformed for the better. He also noticed her becoming more outgoing, talkative and confident as a result of the treatment. It was a life-changing moment for him, and it motivated him to provide that same experience and care to others in the same situation as his sister. Today, he couldn’t be happier with the career path he chose.
