Dr. Nirmi Patel
Dr. Nirmi Patel was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, but soon after moved to Huntsville, Alabama. She spent all her childhood and adolescence in Sweet Home Alabama and loved every moment. Dr. Nirmi Patel completed her Bachelor of Science degree at Birmingham-Southern College in Alabama. Her passion for helping others and working with her hands inspired her to pursue a career in dentistry. Although a southern girl at heart, Dr. Patel wanted to explore other parts of the country and thus attended the University of Maryland Dental School and graduated with a very strong academic and clinical background.

During her time in dental school, she was selected to join a dental mission team in the Dominican Republic and was also granted an internship helping patients with special needs. To further enhance her dental education and experience, Dr. Patel completed a general practice residency at Long Island College Hospital in Brooklyn, New York. Dr. Patel then practiced dentistry in Washington, D.C. until moving to the Triangle area to be with her husband, Sejan. They now have a baby boy.

Dr. Patel is very passionate about dentistry and strives to provide the best dental care with patient care and comfort as her priority. She will customize and tailor treatment plans to reflect your individual needs, and she hopes to leave every patient with a positive dental experience.
