Dr Kathryn Niles-Smith,

Dr. Smith is Dr. Niles’ daughter. She has been working in the dental field since the age of 14. Unlike her siblings, Dr. Smith was not an athlete. To keep her engaged, her dad had her come and work with him on Saturdays and after school all through her high school years. This resulted in her finding a true understanding and passion for dentistry. She practices with the same philosophy as her dad: treat all patients like family or as she would want to be treated. Working with her dad has been one of the greatest honors of Dr. Smith’s life. Dr. Smith earned her bachelor’s degree in Biology at the College of Charleston in 2003. She then earned her dental degree at the Medical University of South Carolina in 2010. She has also been passionate about continuing her dental education by engaging in numerous dental courses every year. She is an active member of the Northern Virginia Dental Society, American Dental Association, Academy of General Dentistry and the United States Dental Institute. One of Dr. Smith’s passions is going on mission trips. She has gone to Honduras, Panama and the Dominican Republic to serve by providing dental care. Married for over 10 years, Dr. Smith has three children with her husband, Tom. They love living close by both of their parents to provide lots of grandparent time to their children.
