Congratulations to Dr. Allison Kumata for being awarded Enable Dental's 2021 DDS Shining Star! She has ridden the waves of change at Enable Dental all while prioritizing the comfort of the patient and keeping loved ones at ease. She has a can do attitude, worked with limited staff during the heat of the pandemic, and even saw patients into her 9th month of pregnancy.
About Dr. Kumata:
Dr. Allison Kumata earned her undergraduate degree in Neuroscience and Biological Sciences from Wellesley College and her Doctorate of Dental Medicine from Tufts University in Boston.
