Dr. Shiny Sachdeva, or Dr. Shiny, as most of her patients like to call her, began her education at the University of British Columbia (UBC), where she obtained her Bachelors degree in Medical Laboratory Science (BMLSc). This stemmed from her passion for scientific research and allowed her to become actively involved in projects at the Canadian Centre for Blood Research and St. Paul’s Hospital.

She then went on to study dentistry at UBC and graduated at the top of her class with a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree and a Gold Medal honour from the College of Dental Surgeons of BC (CDSBC).

Since graduation, Dr. Shiny has gained tremendous clinical experience working with a wide range of patient demographics all across the Lower Mainland. Her dedication to providing the very best, patient-centered care, as well as her passion for oral health and education, has moved her to be engaged in various local outreach programs, such as those in the Downtown Eastside.

As a lifelong learner, Dr. Shiny believes in continuing education and staying current with new advances in the field of Dentistry. She is currently pursuing her lifelong interest in forensics and combining it with her knowledge and skills as a dentist to become qualified as a Forensic Odontologist.

In her free time, Dr. Shiny enjoys spending time outdoors with her beloved dog Ella, listening to live jazz and experimenting with new cuisines around town.
