At Rose Dental, dentistry is more than a profession, it’s a shared purpose shaped by two doctors with different backgrounds, but the same heart for people. Together, Dr. Le and Dr. Victor George have created one of Lakewood Ranch’s most trusted boutique dental practices, defined by artistry, innovation, compassion, and a level of personal attention rarely found in modern healthcare.
Their journeys into dentistry couldn’t be more different, yet they blend beautifully into the philosophy that guides Rose Dental.
For Dr. Le, the path began at just 15 years old, working as a nail technician. That early experience taught her precision, fine motor skill, and artistic detail; strengths she later realized aligned perfectly with dentistry. After completing her Bachelor of Science at the University of Florida and a year in pharmacy school, she boldly shifted direction and pursued the field she felt truly called to.
For Dr. George, the inspiration was deeply personal. His own experience with braces and jaw surgery opened his eyes to how life-changing dentistry can be. He saw firsthand how the field blends medicine with hands-on craftsmanship, and he knew he wanted to help others feel better through that same combination of science and skill.
Together, they share a unified vision: to create a dental home where every patient feels valued, informed, and genuinely cared for.
“When we opened Rose Dental, the goal was to build more than a practice,” they explain. “We wanted to create a dental family — a space where people trust their provider, feel supported, and experience care delivered with honesty, kindness, and connection.”
The Philosophy That Sets Rose Dental Apart
While their backgrounds differ, their approach to dentistry is perfectly aligned. Both doctors are deeply committed to education, communication, and building confidence in their patients.
Dr. George explains it best:
“Confidence means standing behind the treatment we know will truly benefit a patient long-term. At Rose Dental, we stand behind every diagnosis, every recommendation, and every result.”
Rose Dental’s signature experience blends boutique, spa-like comfort with cutting-edge digital dentistry. From same-day crowns to advanced imaging and a meticulously designed patient flow, every step is intentional.
Patients describe the environment as warm, relaxing, and unlike anything they’ve experienced before. That is no accident.
“Most people don’t naturally feel comfortable at the dentist,” they share. “So we’ve created a space that feels homey and peaceful from the moment you walk in. Clear communication, comfort-focused care, and genuine kindness are the foundation of our approach.”
One belief they both wish every patient understood: oral health is directly connected to overall health.
Your mouth is the gateway for breathing, eating, speaking and a major contributor to overall wellness, longevity, and heart health. This understanding guides their emphasis on preventive care and comprehensive treatment planning.
Their shared goal is simple:
Every patient leaves feeling confident, cared for, and connected; excited to come back to a practice that values them.
Life, Heart & Inspiration Beyond the Practice
Outside the office, both doctors lead full and meaningful lives shaped by gratitude, family, and personal passions.
For Dr. Le, joy is found in the quiet moments — cooking and unwinding at home with her husband, Dr. Lan Ta, and spending time with their two mini-goldendoodles, Sara and Soda. Her greatest inspiration is her father, whose resilience, work ethic, and sacrifices laid the foundation for her success. His journey from commercial fisherman to nail technician taught her faith, strength, and determination.
For Dr. George, fulfillment comes from time with his wife and children. Having lost his own father at a young age, he strives to be the role model he never had — demonstrating responsibility, self-care, and strong habits both at home and at work. His patients might be surprised to learn he grew up hunting and fishing in Oklahoma, hobbies he still loves. And if he weren’t a dentist? He laughs, “I’d probably be a fishing captain. There’s something special about helping someone catch their first big fish.”
Both doctors share a deep appreciation for the Lakewood Ranch community. Coming from bigger cities where connection felt diluted, they find the warmth and diversity of this community deeply fulfilling. Through sponsorships like Suncoast Stars, the Lakewood Ranch Humane Society, and ongoing partnerships with Lakewood City Lifestyle, Rose Dental remains actively involved in giving back.
Vision, Legacy & The Future of Rose Dental
To Dr. Le and Dr. George, success isn’t measured in numbers, it’s measured in joy, fulfillment, and meaningful relationships. Success at Rose Dental means working alongside a team they love, caring for patients who feel like family, and creating a culture where excellence and kindness coexist naturally.
Their legacy vision is clear:
To build a dental practice that generations of families trust.
A place people rave about.
A place team members are proud to work.
A place where patients feel listened to, understood, and truly cared for.
Both doctors recall emotional patient moments that shaped their careers, from relieving pain for someone who didn’t know where else to turn, to delivering a new smile that brought tears of joy. These moments anchor their commitment to dentistry and fuel their passion for what they do every day.
Looking ahead, they see dentistry becoming increasingly digital, seamless, and patient-centered. They are committed to continually reinvesting in technology and education, ensuring Rose Dental stays at the forefront of modern care.
But at the end of the day, what they hope patients remember most is simple:
“That we cared about them as a whole person, not just their smile.”
“Confidence isn’t just a smile; it’s the trust patients feel when they know we stand firmly behind our diagnoses, our work, and the long-term care we provide with honesty, precision, and heartfelt attention.”
