DR. LORI THOMAS

Dr. Thomas’ father, a local orthodontist, introduced her to dentistry at a very young age, and played an integral role in her decision to pursue a career in dentistry.

Dr. Thomas has served on the Board of Directors of the Genesee District Dental Society for 8 years, during which she was both Secretary and President.
