A lifetime artist, Dr. Alexandra Bassett earned a visual arts degree in Maine then attended dental school in Boston. Between college and dental school, she served in a high needs charter school to support former drop-outs earning their high school diploma.

While in dental school, she served as an Albert Schweitzer Fellow for Public Service. She considers a love for community and giving as an important characteristic of any doctor, and appreciates the opportunity to treat the people she meets with gentleness, respect, and kindness.

She now spends most of her professional time on her startup dental practice. The practice focuses on high-quality dentistry to serve its patients while also acting as a strong small business employer for the community.

She considers getting older a gift. She also loves staying active, exploring new places, meeting new people, and basking in the wonder this world constantly creates.

“Maybe there is no such thing as time. There are only moments, each with its own story.
