Dr. Saira grew up in the Chicago suburbs and South Florida. Upon graduating high school, Dr. Saira stayed in Florida and attended the University of Miami and double-majored in biochemistry and history. She is a self-proclaimed history buff and orange juice snob. Dr. Saira attended dental school at the University of Louisville where she earned her DMD and Masters’ degree in oral biology. Prior to dental school Dr. Saira worked as a dental assistant in both general dentistry and periodontics. Dr. Saira’s favorite aspect of working in dentistry is spending time with patients to get to know them and their concerns about their oral health.

Following graduation in 2019, Dr. Saira moved back to the Chicago suburbs to be closer to her family. There she worked as a general dentist in her hometown of Naperville. In the summer of July 2021, Dr. Saira relocated to the beautiful pacific northwest to be closer to her husband. In her free time, Dr. Saira enjoys exploring her new home, cooking, gardening, and reading. Dr. Saira is thrilled by the opportunity to serve the Bellingham community.
