The Doctors

Dr. Himmat Bajwa

Surrey Dentist & Practice Owner

Dr. Himmat Bajwa received his dental degree from the University of Pennsylvania, and worked as a dentist in Connecticut from 2006-2011. He took his Canadian dental boards soon after, enabling him to practice here and be with his Canadian wife. Dr. Bajwa has been working as a general dentist in Surrey since 2012, fully committing to this growing community by opening Sullivan Heights Dental and establishing a family here.

Dr. Bajwa believes in clear and honest communication with his patients, so that you not only feel well informed about your oral health care, but also empowered and confident working with your dentist. His knowledgeable and caring approach, combined with his calm demeanor, makes it easy to express any concerns or uncertainty.

He will take the time to explain issues in as much (or as little) detail that you need to feel comfortable – and to ensure that your oral health needs are being addressed in the most optimal way.
