Dr. Ethan Wiens General Dentist

Dr. Ethan Wiens grew up just next door in Abbotsford where he played competitive baseball for the Abbotsford Cardinals in the British Columbia Premier Baseball League, and obtained his Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of the Fraser Valley. It was during his first degree that Dr. Ethan volunteered with the BC Cancer Agency, working as a clinical research assistant screening for oral cancers. It was during this time that he decided to pursue dentistry because he saw the importance of oral health in his community.

Graduating with a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from the University of Sydney, he was among the top of his graduating class in academic and clinical performance receiving awards in endodontics, oral surgery, restorative, and research dentistry.
