Meet Our Dentists & Dental Team

Dr. Russell Crawford was born and raised near Stettler, Alberta. After graduating from high school in Stettler, he went on the the University of Alberta where he started out in Engineering but ended up completing his undergraduate degree in honours Physiology. From there he went straight into the dentistry program at the University of Alberta, and graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree in 2002.

Right after graduating, Dr. Crawford came to Wetaskiwin and joined Park Square Dental Centre. In 2005 he decided that the old office was too small and outdated, and moved into the building we have today.

In his spare time, Dr. Crawford loves to run, and can often be seen roaming the highways around Wetaskiwin (in any weather, and any time of day or night!) He is also an avid woodworker, and when he is not in the dental office he can usually be found in his wood shop, building furniture. He designed and built his own house, which is quickly getting filled with the stuff created in his shop!

Dr. Crawford holds memberships in the Canadian Dental Association, the Alberta Dental Association, and the Edmonton District Dental Society. He is always travelling to different dental meetings and loves to stay on top of new techniques and new technology in dentistry.

Dr. Samira Ibrahim was born in Toronto, ON and grew up in Mississauga, ON.

Dr. Samira Ibrahim is a recent graduate from the University of Saskatchewan College of Dentistry and is thoroughly committed to continuing her growth and building strong relationships with her patients.

Apart from dentistry, she enjoys spending her time with her family and friends. Samira has always been a fan of soccer and basketball and has recently ventured into kickboxing and yoga as well.
