The statement continued,

Racism has no place in my dental practice nor in our society, and goes against our core values. We have built our dental practice by providing exceptional care and service to a very wonderful – and diverse – population of patients.

We believe everyone belongs, and our diversity is our strength. Our diverse community is what makes the Valley a great place to call home.

The statement does not use her name.
