Practicing Orthodontics in Abu Dhabi is a great experience!

I love my team in Abu Dhabi!

Typically, when I teach orthodontics in the UAE, it is in Dubai, about a 1.5 hour drive from Abu Dhabi.

Teaching orthodontics in Dubai with Dr Luis Carriere was a delight.

Abu Dhabi is an international crossroads. I've treated people from more than 125 countries.

Interception orthodontics has never been so important!

Abu Dhabi has a stylish, futuristic skyline.

The sun is shown setting over the Shiekh Zayed Grand Mosque, one of Abu Dhabi's most famous landmarks.

I am so happy working with great staff and patients in the UAE!

Like Manhattan is to New York, the heart of Abu Dhabi is an island. Many visitors to Abu Dhabi enjoy traveling by boat.

The Cleveland Clinic has an impressive Abu Dhabi campus.

I am grateful for knowing so many great patients.

Views of Abu Dhabi from the water give one great view after another.

The Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi is an architectural gem.

The entrance into the harbor at Yas Island has a space-age feel.

Just up the road from Abu Dhabi is Dubai, home of the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.

My staff surprised me on my birthday! The cake was delicious.

For those of us who enjoy a few plants, you learn which varieties are heat tolerant!

One can travel by boat from Abu Dhabi up the coast to Dubai, then up Dubai Creek (pictured).

This patient and her sweet mother brought me flowers!
