ABOUT ME
Dr. Lau says, “There is an instant gratification component with dentistry. Rather than working on a project for months and not knowing whether it will come to fruition. You know that you have made an impact that same day. People can leave your office in better shape than they came in. Either by helping them get out of pain, helping them maintain good oral health, or putting together a plan to get them on the right track.”

Dr. Lau feels Dentistry combines creative artistry with the fundamentals of science and sees every day as an opportunity to connect with his patients and build relationships resulting in healthy smiles.

After graduating with a B.S in Electrical Engineering from the University of Minnesota, Dr. Lau received his Dental Degree from the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry.

Dr. Lau says, “My free time is spent exploring all the outdoors in the Pacific Northwest. I love hiking, running, and biking out here. Minnesota is very FLAT in comparison and I love the mountains.”
