For the past 25 years, I have had the privilege of practicing dentistry in both Jacksonville and Northern Virginia. The success of both practices is due to the trust you have placed in me and my dedicated staff-a trust and responsibility I have always taken seriously.
Performing dental procedures for over 25 years has resulted in carpal tunnel syndrome in my right hand, which has significantly worsened over the past year. I have surgery scheduled for the end of this summer. Your care remains my utmost priority, and I am grateful to have found a doctor who will continue to provide the personalized treatment you are accustomed to, with ethical standards and concern for quality and patient care so well aligned with mine. I am confident you will agree.
I am pleased to introduce Dr. Jessica Proctor, who will assume the duties of my practice as of July 1, 2024. My dedicated clinical staff will remain to assist in your care, and I will be available in a limited capacity to assist with the transition.
I am honored to join the Mandarin South Dentistry family and humbled that Dr. Harmani chose me as her successor. My dental studies at the University of Florida, combined with various continuing education courses, have instilled in me a commitment to excellence in dentistry and lifelong learning-values I share with Dr. Harmani. With ten years of experience in Jacksonville, I have treated routine dental issues, sleep apnea, and complex full-mouth smile makeovers, with specialized training from the Dick Barnes Group. These experiences have honed my skills in both routine and complex procedures, ensuring every patient feels comfortable and confident throughout their treatment.
To make dental appointments more enjoyable, I look forward to offering you amenities like custom knee, neck, and lower back support pillows, and headphones for comfortable Netflix viewing during your treatment.
Outside of work, I cherish time with my husband and two young daughters. I also enjoy DIY home projects, listening to Audible books, and playing with our doodles, Ruby and Bruce "The Moose." I am dedicated to creating confident smiles for the entire family and look forward to bringing my skills and expertise to Mandarin South Dentistry, building lasting relationships with you and your family.
I am excited that I was able to find a practitioner like Dr. Proctor to pass my legacy on to. Thank you for your continued trust and support.
Sincerely,
Gunjan Harmani, DMD
