Hello! My name is Krishna Patel, and I’m a second-year pediatric dentistry resident at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia in affiliation with the University of Pennsylvania. I was born in Toronto, Canada, and grew up in Richmond, Virginia and Knoxville, Tennessee. I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2019, where I double majored in Biology and Health, Physical, and Exercise Science. After graduation, I took a gap year to focus on clinical research and spend time with family in India. I then went on to earn my DDS from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, where I fell in love with Pediatric Dentistry and brought me here.
