DR. MARIA SONG JOHNSON joined the team at Rocky View Dental Care on
September 1, 2008. She spent the last three years in the US
Navy Dental Corps stationed in Okinawa, Japan. She completed
the Navy’s Advanced Education in
General Dentistry, where
she was offered a career opportunity as a pediatric dentist.
However, she chose general dentistry and spent the majority
of her time in Okinawa preparing Marines for deployment. Dr. Johnson was born in Korea but immigrated to the USA at the age
of 11 with her family. While in high school she performed
volunteer work at a VA hospital and was encouraged by a
staff dentist to pursue a career in dentistry. She received
her BS degree from the University of Florida in only
three years and was immediately accepted in the
University of Florida’s College of Dentistry. Her naval career began
immediately after graduating from dental school.
Dr. Johnson was married on June 6, 2008, to Dr. Phillip Johnson. They
were both discharged from the Navy on August 4, 2008, and now make
Littleton their home. Dr. Johnson has a gift working with children and
young adults, and we feel honored to have her here with us at
Rocky
View Dental Care. Dr. Johnson enjoys animals and has two dogs, Gator
and Ali.
