Dr. Daniel Valicevic, or “Dr. V”, was born and raised in the metro Detroit area of Michigan. He stayed in state for his bachelor’s and dental degree, first meeting his wife, Dr. Dulay, at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry. After a pit stop in Chicago for his residency program, Dr. V followed his wife to the beautiful state of Colorado to practice dentistry and enjoy the outdoors. Dr. V is thrilled to be in the Hamilton community, and can happily confirm that the stereotype is true – Canadians are nicer! Outside of dentistry, he loves spending time with his family, and is a huge basketball fan. Dr. V’s mom said he could play for the Detroit Pistons when he was younger, and while he perhaps took that a bit too seriously, he is happy to just play rec league and pickup for now.
