About Kathrina L. Agatep, DDS
I’m absolutely grateful to be doing something I love. Remember when you were 10 and had to write that essay on what you wanted to be when you grew up? Well…I wrote down – DENTIST. No joke, I’ve wanted to work on teeth for as long as I can remember. So without sounding like too cliche, this isn’t just a career, it really is a true passion of mine. I’m grateful to my parents, who may have not had the financial means to support me through school, but had enough confidence in me to co-sign on the absurdly expensive student loan at NYU that I’m still paying for. I’m grateful for my family for helping me keep it together, because it’s not easy being a working Mom. According to my kids, I’m the absolute best dentist in San Diego, and it makes me extremely happy that they want to follow in my footsteps and eventually take over the office. I’ll do whatever I can to help them follow their dreams. Lastly, I’m grateful for the 4,793 appointments that we completed in the last 12 months. You all kept me very busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m committed to keeping each and every one of you healthy, and making sure that your smile gives you the confidence to engage the world.
