“My passion for caring for others stems from growing up in an underserved community and from facing a few health battles of my own,” said Dr. Anderson. “I was determined to enter a career path that would allow me to take care of my community and promote a healthy lifestyle among my patients. I look forward to doing so in Hinesville and to developing relationships with my patients to help them achieve their optimal oral health goals.”

As a general dentist, Dr. Anderson has an extensive skill set and enjoys doing comprehensive, restorative and cosmetic procedures including dentures and partials. She is Invisalign certified and has experience working with pediatric and special needs patients. In her free time, she enjoys exploring the outdoors, listening to music, traveling, exercising and expressing her creativity through fashion.
