Dr. Yazer Issa
Dr. Yazer Issa was born in Syria, but has travelled and worked all over the world. As part of his global journeys, he studied at four different universities in three separate countries, and earned five degrees in dentistry.
If he hadn’t discovered his love of dentistry, he might have found himself a career as a physicist or maybe even a cook (his daughter has lovingly told him that he makes the best, tasty, “unhealthy” food ever). But he’s thrilled that dentistry was the path his life ended up taking.
Dr. Issa is married with three children—one boy and two girls. His children are all involved in music and sports. Travel has always been a passion for Dr. Issa—so much so that he says the airport feels like home. His current dream is to vacation in China. Besides travel, his hobbies include reading, swimming, and fishing.
Dr. Christine Hammer
Dr. Christine loves working in dentistry because it allows for constant learning, the chance to help others, and daily opportunities to blend science with creativity. Her dental interests include oral surgery, restorative, and endodontics.
Originally from Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia, Dr. Christine conducted research in developmental biology, earning a BSc from Mount Saint Vincent University and an MSc at Saint Mary’s University. She got her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at Dalhousie University.
Outside of the office, she enjoys reading, writing, traveling, and spending time outdoors.
