Dr. Rua-Perez served as Chief Resident in his final year and taught part-time at the dental school clinic, supervising removable denture and crown procedures.

This experience set a glowing fire in him to make dentistry his goal career.

He sees and treats patients as if there were family and enjoys building lifelong relationships.
