Born and raised in Hendersonville, NC, Hasmi R. Patel, DMD is happy to be home in North Carolina and serving the Indian Trail community with complete, compassionate dental care. Her lifelong interest in dentistry began when she was a child when her father encouraged her to explore a profession that allowed her to balance work and family life, help others achieve better health, and incorporate her artistic abilities. Dr. Patel’s end goal was to become a respected doctor. She discovered that dentistry was her passion and the best possible professional path for her future.
Dr. Patel attended Temple University in Philadelphia, PA for her undergraduate degree, where she majored in biology. She continued her studies at the School of Dentistry at Temple University where she earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine.
After studying, living, and working in Philadelphia for eight years, Dr. Patel moved back to North Carolina. She is now a local dentist and the proud owner of Indian Trail Dental Studio, where she stays true to her mission in dentistry: to treat her patients with the same level of service and quality of care that she’d want for her own family and friends. Dr. Patel regularly attends continuing education courses so she can expand and enhance the services she provides her patients.
When Dr. Patel is not in the office, she enjoys spending time with her sons, husband, family, and friends. She and her husband love exploring and traveling, and they always appreciate receiving destination recommendations from friends, family, and patients alike. She also enjoys watching movies and basketball (go Bulls!), staying active by trying new workout programs, and running outdoors. She looks forward to working as a local dentist and meeting new patients in her office each day.
