Gunjan Joshi, DDS
Dr Joshi began his dental journey in India where he first received his Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS). While practicing in India, he provided care to a wide variety of patients – from rural, impoverished populations to affluent urban populations. This experience was the basis of his interest in healthcare disparities on a global level which in turn brought him to the USA. Here, he studied the impact of socioeconomic status on Oral Health. He gained his Master of Public Health (MPH) from the Western Kentucky University.
With his primary passion being patient care, Dr Joshi joined the International Dental Program at
University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and received his Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS). The excellence of UCSF training honed Dr Joshi’s clinical skills. It has allowed him to build his practice providing the best in quality dental care to his patients with the integration of modern research and technologies.
Dr Joshi is an active member of the American Dental Association (ADA), California Dental Association (CDA) and Academy of General Dentistry (AGD). After living and working in San Francisco and the Sacramento Valley, Dr Joshi settled in Marin with his wonderful wife. He enjoys the extensive hiking trails the North Bay has to offer and his passion for food has him exploring restaurants throughout the Bay Area as well as cooking his favorite Indian food at home. A personal goal and hobby of Dr Joshi’s is learning new languages. So far, he speaks 5 and is getting close to being fluent in Spanish!
