Care Rooted in Connection
At Wisteria Dental Care, we believe dentistry should feel personal, intentional, and deeply connected to your overall health. Our approach goes beyond teeth we look at how the mouth, airway, muscles, and microbiome influence the body as a whole.
Every visit is designed to feel calm, collaborative, and empowering. We take time to listen, educate, and create care plans that support long-term wellness, not just short-term fixes. Here, prevention is proactive, treatment is thoughtful, and patients are treated like people not charts.
Doctors
Meet the Doctors Behind Your Care
Our doctors combine advanced clinical training with a functional, whole-body lens—bridging science, technology, and compassion. They believe the best outcomes happen when patients are informed, involved, and fully supported.
Hema K. Patel, DDS
Dr. Hema Patel graduated from Loma Linda University, California, and has been in practice since 2003. She was born in India but grew up in Kenya. Having lived in small and rural towns most of her childhood, she recalls that her parents made great efforts to take her and her sisters to the dentist in bigger cities so that they could have the preventive dental care that her parents did not get and had suffered for the lack of it.
Dr. Ketan Patel
A dentist who graduated from WVU in 2018. After practicing in Virginia Beach, I made the move to Maryland to be with my amazing wife. When I’m not helping patients achieve their best smiles, you can find me exploring new destinations and trying out the latest food spots! Always up for an adventure and a good meal.
