Leila Ann Suki, DDS
A native of Texas, Dr. Suki was born in Dallas, raised overseas for a few years, and then returned to attend the University of Houston and the University of Texas Dental Branch. She credits her interest in the medical sciences to her mother, who is a career nurse, and to her physician father, who headed the Baylor nephrology section for years. They instilled in her the respect and compassion for patients of all backgrounds and the value of service with dedication that has shaped her philosophy of practice. Her artistic inclination, however, led her to a career in dentistry with the opportunity of melding art and science. Graduating in the very top of her dental school class, she earned the opportunity of training in a year-long residency program at the Veterans Administration Hospital in the Texas Medical Center. This prepared her in the medical and surgical management of more complex cases once she began serving patients in private practice. In 1998, she …established an office in west Houston, eventually expanding to the Holcombe location in 2007.
Postdoctoral training and constant literature review are part of Dr. Suki’s everyday routine. She attended the prestigious Pankey Institute in Florida and is a member of the Seattle Study Club, where she shares in a monthly meeting to discuss scientific advances and new treatments with her peers. She is also active on several dental society committees and a previous member of the editorial review board of the Greater Houston Dental Journal. Dr. Suki focuses her efforts on the rehabilitation of diseased bites and restoring them to comfort, beauty, and sound function. She incorporates the latest technology once the evidence based research supports results that meet her standards. In this day and age of marketing, it takes a lot of careful examination to sift through the claims that various medical companies present to the private practitioner, and Dr. Suki, dedicated to the safety and health of her patients, introduces new techniques after much study.
On a personal note, Dr. Suki is fluent in three languages and her hobbies center around her love for cultures, travel and getting to know people. Of course, her two Main Coon cats are very dear to her as well!
