MEET THE TEAM

DR. NATASHA LAING

Family Dentist

I'm proud to have been part of the opening of Nolan Hill Dental in 2015. I've been a dentist for over 15 years, all of which (except for a fun year teaching and practicing in Halifax) have been in Calgary. Although I grew up in Saskatchewan, I call Calgary home.
I enjoy being a dentist as it gives me the opportunity to meet many different people. I always look forward to connecting with someone new to the office, as well as catching up with patients I've known for many years. Dentistry is very rewarding to me. I love when I'm able to help nervous patients overcome their fears, when I see my patients' dental work last for many years, when patients refer their loved ones to see me, and when I help patients achieve their oral health goals.
On a personal note, I'm married and we have 2 beautiful daughters. Much of my free time is spent with them, and any chance we get we escape to the mountains.

DR. DAN PARK

Family Dentist

After spending my childhood in South Korea, my family moved to Alberta where I grew up in Calgary. I studied in Edmonton and graduated from the University of Alberta, earning my Bachelors degree in Medical Science and Doctor of Dental Surgery. I am thrilled to be able to provide dental care to everyone who is in need. My goal is to strive for the best possible patient-centered care by working together with you, to create a personalized treatment plan best suited to your needs. I enjoy furthering my knowledge through a variety of professional activities which aligns with TREC’s mission of “Continuous Improvement”. I have been on several volunteer trips to Southeast Asia and South America to teach English and to provide dental care to the remote communities. I am also fluent in Korean, for those who are shy with speaking English :) Outside of clinic, I love spending time with family and friends. I play the violin in church choirs and bands. I also enjoy working out, practicing Kendo, and travelling.

DR. SONIA BENAVIDES

Family Dentist

Originally from Mexico, I decided to move to Canada to be with my husband. I have lived all over Canada such as Ontario, Saskatchewan, BC and chose Calgary as my home. I absolutely love spending time in our beautiful mountains and being outdoors. I am very proud to call myself Canadian.

I truly enjoy providing dental health in a caring and comfortable manner. I am very fortunate to belong to the Nolan Hill Dental family, as we share the same values. Making patients feel at home and welcome is something I strive for on every visit. Educating people about oral health is something that can be done in a fun and informative way. I am approachable and friendly so please feel free to ask me any questions you may have and know that I will support you in any decision you make. Since I was young, I have always been very passionate about Dentistry and love keeping up to date with growing technologies.

In my spare time, I love camping, backpacking or walking Simona, my dog. In the winter, I like snowshoeing and trying to stay upright on skis.

Feel free to speak to me in English or Spanish. Ask me about hiking, travelling or a Mexican recipe!

TRACY

Office Manager

Being in the dental field for over 15 years working in both Australia and Canada has given me a love and appreciation for people and the quality dentistry we can provide. From modern dental technology to ensuring each patient feels genuinely cared for, at Nolan Hill Dental we want you to finish your appointment with a smile. Our dental team is delighted to be in the beautiful NW community of Nolan Hill and we look forward to providing you and your family optimal and exceptional dental care all year long. Outside of the office, you'll find me spending quality time with my daughter and husband either hiking, going for nature walks or trying out a new restaurant in Calgary.

ALYSE

Registered Dental Hygienist

I’ve been in the dental field for over 10 years. I love meeting new patients and building relationships with the ones I see regularly. I am passionate about helping my patients achieve their oral health goals and love seeing them smile! When I’m not at work I spend my time doing activities with my husband and our two girls.

MINDY

Registered Dental Hygienist

My parents immigrated to Canada from Vietnam in the 70's, fleeing from poverty and war, they had no idea the importance of teeth and gum health until unfortunately it was too late. For a long time, I knew I wanted to be in health care. But most of all, I knew I wanted to provide compassionate, quality care, that was free of any judgement, just as if it were my own parents sitting in the chair.
At Nolan Hill Dental, we look forward to sharing a positive experience that will help you achieve your goals in optimizing your oral health.
