Dr Andrew Li

Andrew was raised in Auckland and went to the University of Otago to pursue a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Dental Surgery graduating in 2021.

As a child, he was fascinated by how dentists and orthodontists can transform a person's smile and give them confidence. Being a patient himself when he was younger, he hopes to bring the same level of care to his patients.

Andrew was raised in Auckland and went to the University of Otago to pursue a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Dental Surgery graduating in 2021.

As a child, he was fascinated by how dentists and orthodontists can transform a person's smile and give them confidence. Being a patient himself when he was younger, he hopes to bring the same level of care to his patients.

After graduation, Andrew moved back to Auckland to practice in West and East Auckland where he has picked up invaluable skills in general dentistry. After a few years in Auckland, he has decided coming to the Waikato would be a great way to help communities that need dentists.

Andrew has travelled not only in NZ but has gone overseas to further his dental training, learning from the best in Australasia and abroad in root canals, extractions and cosmetic dentistry. He believes the best feeling in the world is when the patient has been relieved of his pain, whether that is a toothache or not being happy with their smile.

Andrew loves to talk to his patients to understand their needs and provides an in-depth explanation of their oral condition along with the appropriate treatment options. Andrew believes the patient should leave happy and satisfied with the outcome.

Along with dentistry Andrew loves to hit the gym and plays football on his days off and when possible go travelling to see what the world has to offer.
