Meet Dr. Li - Embrace Orthodontics

李漪娜医生简介

D.M.D., PH.D., M.S., DIPLOMATE, AMERICAN BOARD OF ORTHODONTICS

李医生在中国的首都北京出生长大。她是家庭中第一个考上大学的孩子。在中国首屈一指的北京大学攻读完本科学位后，她求知的渴望促使她来到美国范德比尔特大学攻读细胞与发育生物学博士学位。抱着对科学的热忱，她随后前往哈佛大学从事了前沿的遗传方面的博士后研究。受到前沿科研的启发以致力于牙科临床实践，李医生随后前往康涅狄格大学，以年级第一名的成绩完成了她的牙科医学博士学位(D.M.D.)博士学位，并因其优异的学业成绩和在病人治疗方面的出色表现而入选美国Omicron Kappa Upsilon牙科荣誉学会。此后她继续在全球都享有盛名的北卡罗来纳大学正畸专科深造，完成了3年的正畸专科住院医师的严格训练。李医生对科学，牙科医学和口腔正畸学的热情不仅促使她在Cell，Nature，PNAS和Stem Cell Research等高影响力的学术期刊上发表了很好的科研文章，还为她赢得了众多的奖项。尤其值得一提的是，由于她最近在正畸牙齿移动期间的自噬途径方面的先驱性工作，美国正畸医生协会（AAO）在其近期的年会上授予了李医生 Thomas M.Graber 特别优异奖。

李医生不仅在前沿应用科学上卓有成就，她更是身先士卒致力于正畸个性化临床治疗和整体美观方面的精益求精。她为此参加了严苛的美国正畸董事会考试，成为美国口腔正畸董事会（ABO）认证的牙齿矫正师。据美国口腔正畸董事会统计，在美国所有正畸医生中，目前只有约1/3的人通过了这项严格的认证。李医生喜欢接受工作中的挑战以及通过帮助每位患者得到精神上的满足，并且将每位患者视为自己的家人！李医生在她的诊所里使用最先进有效的技术，而且通过不断的深造学习了解正畸学的前沿进展，以便为患者提供最好的个性化治疗和治疗体验！

除了在自己诊所看病人，李医生还热心回馈教育，在密歇根大学正畸系 (Department of Orthodontics/Pediatric Dentistry at the University of Michigan) 担任兼职教师从事教导住院医生临床教学。

诊所之外的李医生

在矫正牙齿之余，李医生喜欢在后院种植各种蔬菜，烹饪，旅游，徒步旅行，和与家人朋友共度时光！李医生和她的大学同学在大学毕业后不久组建自己的小家庭，并育有两个男孩。在2020年，李医生和家人迎来了他们家的第一只小狗，一只名叫Hiro的柴犬，这只拆家小能手再拆家之余给李医生一家带来了很多乐趣。

李医生及其家人非常喜欢密歇根州安娜堡四季分明的气候和友好包容的人文氛围。她期待着与您见面，给您及您的家人提供愉快的正畸治疗体验！
