On today’s episode, I am speaking with Dr. Sadaf Alam. Dr. Sadaf Alam is a general dentist and the owner of Urban Smiles Dental in Cary, North Carolina. She believes dentistry should be both clinically excellent and genuinely compassionate, and she takes pride in building long-term relationships with her patients. She earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Adams School of Dentistry and is proud to serve the Cary community. Dr. Alam is a breast cancer survivor and she shares what it was like to navigate diagnosis and treatment while running a dental practice, including the difficult decisions she faced about whether to keep working or step back. She reflects on how she made those choices, what helped her get through treatment as a business owner, and what she learned along the way.
