Janet Concepcion-Manalo, D.D.S.
Dentist

Coming from a family of dental practitioners, Dr. Concepcion-Manalo is well-acquainted with the profession's rigorous demands for quality and excellence.  Inspired by her parents, who are both dentists, she decided to carry on the family legacy and earned her doctorate degree in Dental Medicine from the University of the East in Manila, Philippines.  Upon graduating, she worked alongside her parents as an associate dentist.

She decided to broaden her horizons and moved to New York City.  While there, Dr. Concepcion-Manalo was privileged to have worked with some of the most well-known and respected names in the field of dentistry.  She also volunteered her dental services by joining dental outreach and mission trips.  She set her sights on improving her skills and sought further training from UCLA. She earned her license to practice in the State of California in 2007.

Dr. Janet Concepcion-Manalo remains committed to providing the highest standard of dental care possible for all her patients. She continues to improve her knowledge and skills as a dental professional by actively attending seminars and conferences throughout the country as well as utilizing the latest technologies and innovations in the field of dentistry.
