Biography

Dr. Pham grew up in the Northeast outside of Philadelphia. His educational path began with a focus in art and biology at the University of Pittsburgh. After spending time working at an oral and maxillofacial surgery practice, he found a strong interest in trauma and jaw surgery.

Dr. Pham completed an accelerated undergraduate program in 3 years and earned both his Bachelors of Science and Doctorate of Dental Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. He then went on to complete medical school, a general surgery internship, and a residency in oral and maxillofacial surgery at the University of North Carolina.

Dr. Pham enjoys the combination of art and medicine in broad scope oral and maxillofacial surgery. Being able to correct facial proportions and restore functions through surgery is the most fulfilling part of working with his patients. He looks forward to providing the Columbia area with his knowledge and experience.

  • Outstanding Care

    I highly recommend Carolina Center for Oral and Facial Surgery and in particular, Dr. Pham. Dr. Pham’s consult and care plan was clear, concise, and above and beyond my expectations. Their concern and care was second only to the excellent dental work that was completed the very same day as they readily accommodated the fact I had traveled 2 hrs. which was greatly appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Pham and his staff. Thank you for the outstanding care!

  • An Amazing job

    I had surgery on both of my jaws to correct an underbite issue I’ve had for most of my adult life. Dr. Pham did an amazing job. I was very nervous about having jaw surgery, but his office did an excellent job. I am extremely satisfied with the result. Before jaw surgery, I could not tear foods properly with my bite. Now my bite is tremendously improved. I could not recommend Dr. Pham enough for those considering jaw surgery.

  • Exceptional

    Dr. Pham was exceptional. He listened intently to the issues I had been experiencing. He didn’t rush our appt - but actually took the time to explain the physiology of what was happening and next steps to move forward. I greatly appreciated his demeanor and engagement with me.
