Dr. Zahra Essam cannot recall a time when she didn’t have a passion for educating and sharing her knowledge with others.

Beginning her foray into instructing in 2001, Dr. Zahra set out to the United Arab Emirates from her home country in Iraq and began teaching as a clinical assistant supporting in the departments of prosthodontics, pedodontics, operative, endodontics and oral surgery at Ajman University. Quickly advancing in her career, she became a general practitioner and then the lead dentist in Abu Dhabi before spanning her teaching and clinical experience across the Atlantic to Prep Doctors.

At the heart of her work with Prep Doctors, Dr. Zahra is most excited about helping and seeing other dentists achieve successful outcomes.
