Growing up in Chennai, a south Indian coastal city, Dr. Siva relocated to the United States to further his training. He obtained his Master of Science Degree in Information Technology from the University of North Texas and worked in IT for 2 years before pursuing a Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of California at Los Angeles School of Dentistry.

They are trained to handle treatment of children under anesthesia and sedation, as well as treatment of medically compromised children and adolescents.
