Dr Sileshi Assemu

Originating from Ethiopia, Dr. Assemu brings more than a decade of dental experience to the team. For him, dentistry is more than just for treating pearly whites—it’s about compassion and helping others live their best lives. Due to his personal experience with dental discomfort and oral health problems, he ended up leaning toward dentistry when it came to picking the healthcare area he wanted to work in. He finds his work extremely fulfilling and it even allows him plenty of freedom to spend time with his family. Dr. Assemu first attended Tennessee State University for his undergraduate degree before studying at the University of Tennessee in Memphis for his Doctor of Dental Surgery. Even after graduating, he remains committed to seeking continuing education so that he can stay up to date with the latest advancements, technology, and techniques in the field. At home, he lives with his wife and their three sons. Other than treating smiles, he enjoys things like hiking, biking, and playing soccer.
