About
Dr. Zainah Shaker hails from St. Paul, Minnesota. She completed her Bachelor of Science degree in nutritional sciences at the University of Minnesota. She then continued her education by completing her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Minnesota and graduated with high distinction. Following completion of her doctorate degree she was determined to pursue further training in order to provide care to medically complex patients in both the clinical and operating room settings and this led her to a General Practice Residency. She completed her General Practice Residency at the University of Minnesota Medical Center- Fairview Hospital. After residency she practiced as a general dentist in the Twin Cities area. During this time she worked in private practice as well as in a hospital providing care to patients in the operating room setting. Completion of her own orthodontic treatment inspired her to provide this care to her patients which led her to begin her Orthodontics residency at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
In her free time she enjoys spending time with friends and family, traveling, baking and reading.
