Dr. Sho Izumi earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of California Los Angeles and graduated from dental school at Loma Linda University.
She is a member of the American Dental Association, the California Dental Association, and Harbor Dental Society.
Dr. Izumi is very dedicated to dentistry because she knows first-hand the difference that professional dental care can make. “Growing up, I was not confident or happy with my smile,” she says. “Crooked teeth, an open bite, a lower jaw that was poorly positioned — these were just some of the issues I had. However, with the help of a team of dentists and the support of my parents, I eventually saw an amazing transformation! I could not be happier with my smile now.”
Dr. Izumi strives each day to give her patients the good experience she had and wants to help them achieve their goals.
In her spare time, Dr. Izumi enjoys arts and crafts, baking and cooking. She loves exploring new restaurants and matcha cafes. She also loves the beautiful California beaches.
