Doctor of Dental Surgery · Virginia Commonwealth University · 2019
“Growing up around my father's dental practice gave me early insight into this field. Dentistry is about building relationships and helping people feel confident in their smiles.”
Staying current in clinical practices is important to me. I believe in collaboration within the dental community and giving back through volunteer work.Dr. Rebecca Karp, DDS
Dr. Rebecca Karp grew up in Virginia Beach, Virginia, where she gained early insight into the field of dentistry from her father's dental practice. She earned her Bachelor's degree in Biology and German Literature from the University of Virginia in 2015. During her undergraduate years, she shadowed and learned about dentistry from influential mentors at the UVA Dental Clinic.
Dr. Karp obtained her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2019. Thereafter, she returned to Charlottesville to further her skills as a practitioner at the UVA General Practice Residency Program. During the two year residency, she provided care to patients in both the hospital and Charlottesville community with an emphasis on advanced restorative and surgical procedures.
Dr. Karp is delighted to now call Richmond home and is proud to have joined Monument Family Dentistry in 2023.
