Altion Gilliam is one of the newer faces at the practice, but you wouldn’t guess it from how quickly he’s fit right in. At 23, he’s been in dentistry for just over a year and is already working toward his Registered Dental Assistant (RDA) license. Before that, he spent two years in construction, which taught him the value of precision, patience, and hard work, skills he now puts to good use in patient care.

Altion has a friendly, easygoing way with people, which helps patients feel at ease during their visits. He’s also curious by nature, always learning and looking for ways to improve his skills.

When he’s not in scrubs, Altion keeps busy with a mix of hobbies. He’s an avid reader, loves traveling, enjoys the shooting range, and is always up for discovering something new.
