With over 30 years of experience in the field, Dr. Luba has been passionately committed to improving the oral health and well-being of her patients since 1994. Her decision to pursue dentistry comes from a deep desire to help others and make a meaningful impact on their health and confidence.
Dedicated to serving communities in need, Dr. Luba has volunteered her time and expertise in underserved areas of the Dominican Republic and Uruguay. She is also certified in Six Month Smiles®, a cosmetic orthodontic treatment designed to gently straighten teeth in a short period of time.
Dr. Luba is also fluent in English, Spanish, and French, allowing her to connect with patients from diverse backgrounds. Her approach to care is patient-centered. When someone is in pain, her first priority is to relieve discomfort, understand their concerns, and provide solutions tailored to their individual needs. She is known not only for her clinical skill but for the genuine compassion she brings to every patient interaction.
Outside of the office, Dr. Luba enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and their dog, Luna. She is also an avid traveler who loves exploring new destinations and experiencing different cultures.
