After Dr. Achong completed his Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Toronto he decided to head south to Philadelphia to attend dental school.  He was awarded his dental degree at the University of Pennsylvania.  It was at Penn dental school he found his calling to take care of children so he left Philadelphia for Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Dr. Achong is a huge fan of the Big Ten Conference and New England Patriots football.  He can always be found sporting his maize and blue Michigan gear or his New England Patriots football shirt.
