Dr. Chris Dawson always knew he wanted to be involved in the medical field. He just didn't know in what way. He earned his undergraduate degree at NC State and worked in the Triangle until he realized his passion for dentistry. He regularly volunteered at shadowing events and fell in love with the way dentists work collaboratively with patients to positively impact their lives using treatment plans suited to their specific needs and desires. Dr. Dawson was then accepted into Dental School at the Indiana University School of Medicine. When he graduated, he attended a residency program at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte. He then joined the Riccobene Associates.
