Dr. Richa Bhatia (“Dr. Richa”) is a Board Eligible Pediatric Dentist and member of the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD). She is originally from Canada and is excited to start a new chapter in Chicago with her husband!
Dr. Richa graduated with her Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences at Wayne State University and went on to receive her dental degree from the University of Michigan in 2020. She completed a General Practice Residency with Penn State Health in Reading, Pennsylvania before returning to the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) where she earned her Master’s in Pediatric Dentistry. During her pediatric dental residency, Dr. Richa had the unique opportunity to train for 1-year at a nonprofit clinic in Flint, MI where she treated vulnerable populations of pediatric patients from low-income families.
Dr. Richa enjoys the feeling of being involved in a child’s oral care early on and strives to create positive experiences for both children and their parents at the dentist. She strongly believes in preventive care and education to help instill a lifetime of healthy habits.
During her free time, Dr. Richa enjoys staying active, exploring Chicago, spending time with friends and family, cooking, reading, and traveling. Dr. Richa is super excited to be joining the team at Bite Size Pediatric Dentistry and cannot wait to meet you!
