“Everything was great. No waiting though we were late a bit as got lost. Great Doctor and assistant: very patient and nice with kids - explained every move/ step she made to reassure the scared child. The Front desk staff is incredible especially the young lady at checkout with reddish hair color. She went above and beyond. It’s like she knew what I needed before I was even to ask. Highly recommend this place! Thank you”

About Dr. Carolina Akerman

Dr. Carolina Akerman received her D.M.D. degree at the Central University of Venezuela in Caracas in 1997. She joined her mother’s practice in the prestigious Medical Center of Caracas, where she focused on treating children and adolescents. She then decided to pursue her love of learning by moving to Florida where she was admitted to the pediatric specialty program at Nova Southeastern University and subsequently the Advanced Standing program for International dentists. She has worked as a Pediatric resident at the Miami Children’s Hospital where she was able to help many children with traumatic facial and dental injuries. While pursuing the Advanced Standing program at Nova, she was offered a position as a teaching assistant in the Pediatric Dentistry Department. In this capacity she had the opportunity to prepare and deliver multiple lectures in the areas of Traumatic Dental Injuries, Pediatric Restorative Dentistry, Local Anesthesia and Behavior Management in Pediatric Dentistry to both undergraduate and post-doctoral dental students. Dr. Akerman’s practice has been open for nearly a decade in Aventura, the community she calls home. Her clinical skills, experience and love of caring for the dental needs of children make Dr. Carolina Akerman the right choice for families and referring Dentists alike.
