Dr. Reesha Rafiq

Dentist

I'm Dr. Reesha Rafiq, and I love dentistry because it's a perfect combination of science, art and patient care; it's an exciting career that allows me to use my hands to improve peoples' health and happiness. Pursuing my lifelong passion for pearly whites, I graduated from NYU's College of Dentistry and completed my general practice residency at Wyckoff Heights Medical Center in Brooklyn. I'm a social butterfly, and I love meeting new people and getting to know my patients on a personal level. I have been working in dentistry for nearly a decade, and I joined the Leaf Dental team in 2021. 

I love that I'm able to take care of patients' oral health needs, whether it's to relieve someone's pain or put a smile on their face. It's my passion to help guide patients so they can improve their quality of life and lead a healthy lifestyle. Seeing a patient feel more confident and empowered is incredibly rewarding.

After a long day, I like to unwind by watching TV or stay active by taking long walks in the city, speed-walking, and doing Pilates and Yoga.
