After graduating from the University of British Columbia in 2012, Dr. V spent several years practicing in Grande Prairie, Alberta. Our search for just the right associate - one with an easy-going personality as well as great clinical skills - coincided with Jorell's desire to return to this area, and we were excited to have him join our team in September, 2015. He immediately had a great rapport with patients of all ages and after several years, as the practice grew, he had the opportunity to become a partner in the company. We’re happy to have him in this ongoing role in the practice!

When he's not working, Jorell likes a plethora of activities including cooking, photography, and challenging the slopes in any season, hiking or snowboarding. He favours Earnest Ice Cream's Maple Walnut, and always enjoys the company and conversation with good friends. Jorell has been a Canucks fan for as long as he can remember, and says that was a daunting proposition while living in northern Alberta - one more good reason to be back in the greater Vancouver area!

Nour graduated from the University of Montreal in 2012 and completed a General Practice Residency in Bronx, NY the following year. She has since worked in private practice in New York, Montreal and Vancouver . She has also had the opportunity to travel to remote communities in Northern Quebec and Nunavut to deliver dental care to vulnerable populations. Working with such diverse communities has opened her eyes to common challenges in dentistry and her desire to get involved has led her to pursue a part-time Masters in Health Administration at UBC. The focus of her Masters is to address inequities in access to dental care in BC. She is passionate about her work and loves getting to know her patients. She stays current by attending continuing education courses and is part of a prosthodontic study club. She is fluent in English, French and Arabic.
