Dr. Alice Chi

Not all heroes wear capes – take Dr. Alice Chi for example! As a newly minted dentist, Dr. Alice dons her trusty scrubs and white coat while she dedicates herself to treating every patient with the same level of respect, skill, and compassion as she would with family. Dr. Alice earned her bachelor degrees – Biology and Psychology – from UC Davis before completing her doctorate in June 2021 at the UC San Francisco (UCSF) School of Dentistry. Additional credentials include her Basic Life Support Certification and her UCSF Health Bilingual Certification, the latter in recognition of her Chinese Mandarin proficiency. Growing up in an immigrant family in San Francisco, Dr. Alice witnessed firsthand the destructive consequences of unethical dentistry. Due to language barriers and insurance issues, her uncle suffered unknowingly as a patient of an unlicensed dentist. This experience compelled Dr. Alice towards dentistry – so that no patient will ever have to endure the same mistreatment. Today, Dr. Alice is known in dentistry for her knowledge, work ethic, and passion. Dr. Alice treats both her patients and coworkers like family with clear communication and mutual respect. On her days off, Dr. Alice can be found at home – either she's simultaneously binging on boba and Korean dramas, or she’s tearing through a 1000-piece puzzle. If you want to catch her outside of the home, try signing up for a themed marathon! Dr. Alice is an experienced participant in marathons such as the hot chocolate run and the bubble run.
