Dr. Justin Ngo

As a dentist, I see myself not just as a provider of dental care, but as an advocate for my patients' overall oral health. I believe that informed patients make the best decisions about their treatment, so I take the time to educate each patient on the various options available to them. By discussing the benefits and potential outcomes of different treatments, I empower my patients to choose the path that aligns with their personal goals and long-term health. My commitment is to work collaboratively with my patients, ensuring they feel confident and supported in every aspect of their dental care.

Education and Continuing Education

  • Bachelor’s degree in Biology – Millersville University
  • Doctorate of Dental Medicine – Temple University
  • General Practice Residency – Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital
During my residency at Lancaster General Hospital, I gained invaluable exposure to a wide range of dental procedures, which allowed me to refine my skills and deepen my understanding of patient care. This hands-on experience was instrumental in shaping my approach to dentistry, enabling me to provide high-quality care tailored to each patient's needs. I am also committed to continuing education, taking courses every year to stay up to date with the latest advancements in dentistry. This ongoing learning helps me continuously improve my knowledge and skills, ensuring that I can offer the best possible care to my patients.

Personal Life

I grew up in Lancaster, PA, as the child of refugees who immigrated to the U.S. to escape the genocide in Cambodia. From a young age, I worked alongside my parents in their various businesses—whether it was in our family’s beer store, Chinese restaurant, motel, or managing rental properties. While I didn’t fully appreciate it at the time, these experiences shaped my character, instilling in me the values of hard work, perseverance, and teamwork that have been crucial in my professional career.

My love for exploration has taken me around the world, traveling to various countries across Asia and Europe, where I enjoy immersing myself in different cultures and cuisines. An adventurous eater, I rely heavily on the tiktok algorithm for inspiration in my pursuit to try new foods, restaurant as well as experiences with my wife Chen. In my free time, I enjoy working out with my family and friends challenging each other physically, whether it’s in the gym working on my max bench—currently at 385 lbs—or exploring new activities like long distance biking and pickleball. These pursuits keep me grounded and continually striving for growth.
