Dr. Mankad graduated from Temple University School of Dentistry in Philadelphia, PA. She worked in a group practice in Pennsylvania for 3 years before starting Brentwood Progressive Dental with Dr. Amor Tiburcio. While she didn't mind the snowy winters and humid summers she moved to the Bay Area with her husband.

Dr. Mankad loves to learn and is always advancing her practice by continuing her education. She enjoys all aspects of dentistry but really enjoys the personal interaction with patients that comes from trust. "I treat patients with the patience and respect I would want someone to give my mother or father. So, I listen first to what patients want and what their concerns are and only after that we decide what the best course of action is together."

Dr Mankad also loves to give back to the community and has spent many hours volunteering at CDA cares events. When not being a dentist, Dr Mankad is also running biking and swimming around the Bay Area.
