Dr. Henry holds a BA in Criminology and a DMD.

“I am fortunate and honored to join the CAN team. From the medical providers to the administrative professionals, the atmosphere is one of dedication to patient care. Possibly, Lewis Caroll captured the culture of CAN when he said – “One of the secrets of life is that all that is really worth the doing is what we do for others,” stated Dr. Henry.
