In 2009, Dr. Sinan graduated top of his class and was selected to join a rigorous residency program in Cairo to further advance his dental skills. After completing his program, he wanted to further advance in his career and migrated to the U.S. Dr. Sinan began his endless studying and passed the National Board Dental Examinations. He has been practicing and advancing his skills for over seven years after earning his Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania.

Having witnessed the hardships of the Iraq War and the sacrifices his parents had to make, Dr. Sinan has never lost sight of pursuing his dream of helping others through dentistry. Dr. Sinan enjoys the simple things in life, like spending time with family and friends. He also enjoys tennis, traveling and water activities.
