Dr. Katheline Cao

Dr. Katheline is passionate about helping patients feel calm, cared for, and confident in the dental chair. She provides gentle, patient-focused care in a welcoming and positive environment, and enjoys helping patients feel more comfortable and informed throughout their dental care. She believes in meeting patients where they are and understands that everyone has different needs, goals, and comfort levels when it comes to dentistry. Dr. Kat takes the time to listen, explain treatment options clearly, and work together with each patient to create an individualized treatment plan that feels clear, manageable, and tailored to them. She enjoys helping patients feel encouraged and motivated to take a more active role in their oral health. Dr. Kat was born in Winnipeg and raised in Vancouver. She completed her undergraduate studies at the University of British Columbia before earning her Doctor of Dental Medicine from the University of Sydney in Australia. After graduating, she had the opportunity to live and practise general dentistry in a beautiful rural beach town in Australia before returning to Canada to continue caring for patients here. When appropriate, Dr. Kat brings a light-hearted and positive approach to appointments, helping make the dental experience feel more relaxed and enjoyable. She loves being a dentist and values the relationships she builds with her patients, treating each person with the same kindness, respect, and attention that she would want for her own friends and family. Outside of dentistry, Dr. Kat loves connecting with others and spending quality time with her family and friends. Together, they enjoy creating new memories, trying different experiences, going on mini adventures, and bringing lightness, laughter, and fun into everyday moments — often with music, singing, and dancing along the way. Dr. Kat speaks English and Vietnamese.
