Summary
Lorena M. Surber, D.D.S. graduated summa cum laude from West Virginia University in 1972 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene. She practiced as a Dental Hygienist for 14 years before going to dental school. In 1990, Dr. Surber graduated summa cum laude from West Virginia University School of Dentistry. She then completed a General Practice Residency at Charleston Area Medical Center.
Dr. Surber tells us, "I was inspired to become a dentist by my aunt, a dental hygienist. She often talked to me about dental hygiene which motivated me to become a hygienist. I later decided to go to dental school because I enjoy caring for my patients and have truly found my niche as a dentist. The joy I see on my patients' faces when they complete their cosmetic dental plans never ceases to inspire me."
Today, Dr. Surber combines new technologies with gentle dental care to help her patients achieve proper dental health. Dr. Surber explains, "A beautiful smile begins on the inside. That's …why I get to know my patient as a person before I treat them. I listen to their fears, concerns and expectations. Then I design a smile-enhancement plan just for them. By catering to individual needs, I can truly give my patients a reason to smile."
Dr. Surber is proud of her friendly and dedicated staff whose goal is to provide a comfortable, caring dental experience for patients. Patient comfort is a key aspect of Dr. Surber's dental practice. That means taking her patient's fears seriously and providing them with many comforts while being treated.
Dr. Surber enjoys challenging and technical cases. Dr. Surber has stayed up-to-date in her dental field by completing more than 500 hours of continuing education classes. She believes that education and training helps her provide the best dental care for her patients.
Dr. Surber appreciates the support of her family which brings her pride and joy. Her daughter, Claire, is a veterinarian and was married earlier this year. She now lives and works in Georgia. Mac is Dr. Surber's oldest son. He graduated from West Point and is a captain in the U.S. Army. Mac is now stationed at Fort Benning in Georgia after serving 16 months in Afghanistan. Jonathan is Dr. Surber's youngest son. He is living in San Diego, California after graduating from the University of Charleston in South Carolina.
Dr. Surber is a member of the American Dental Association, the Academy of General Dentistry, and the Kanawha Valley Dental Society.
