Dr. Fan Liu

Hi. I am Dr. Fan Liu, and I have worked at the Westhill Dental Clinic since 2006. Thanks to the support of my patients, especially those loyal, long-term patients from the Parksville-Qualicum area, our clinic has developed into a successful, modern dental clinic. We now have a wonderful team and new up-to-date equipment to better care for our patients.
I have to confess that to my new patients that my biggest drawback as a dentist is my accent. I was not born and raised in Canada. I was born in China and came to Canada in 1990, so my English is rather like “Chinglish”. I am not as knowledgeable as most other Canadians are on subjects like hockey, baseball and movies, but I have embraced Canadian life, and my dentistry education is 100% Canadian educated.

I received my first round of university education in China, where I attended medical school and practiced medicine for a few years before coming to Canada. When I immigrated to Canada, I worked in medical research. I then received my second round of university education at Western Ontario University, where I completed my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2001. My dental training is completely Canadian, and my background in medicine has (possibly!) been helpful in my clinic.

My dental practice philosophy is to try my very best for all the cases and to get the best results possible for every patient. In order to provide the very best results for my patients, I must carefully spend time on each step of every procedure. My patients may spend a longer time in the chair, but this is necessary for me to complete the work with a perfect-as-possible result every time. I don’t cut corners, and I don’t mind spending the time to educate my patients on the methods needed to get the best long-term results for them.

What his staff have to say: Dr. Liu is an honest and trustworthy person. He will give you his honest opinion regarding dental treatment. He is extremely hard-working; he barely ever takes a day off work. He will do everything in his power to save your teeth.  Even if it is a very difficult case, he will tackle it. He is a perfectionist and only gives the highest standard of quality treatment to his patients. He is very fair with his staff and patients. This makes him a good boss. If you don’t understand his “Chinglish” (as he calls it), ask any one of the staff members what he said because we are now all fluent in “Chinglish”.
