    Grateful and elated to pass the baton on to my daughter, Dr. Rochelle Andrews-Nunez and son-in-law, Dr. Christian Nunez who have been associates of the office since 2005.  They will continue to serve the dental needs of our community.  We will continue to support Career Days and community Health Fairs and organizations.

    'My sincere appreciation to all of my patients and the community for your support and loyalty and being part of the family.  It was an honor and pleasure to serve you.  I will miss all of you but it is consoling to know that I am leaving you in Great hands. 
    I am looking forward to retirement with Good Health and not too much grandparent duties.   Plan to do lots of reading and to work on improving my piano skills and my terrible golf game.  It appears I will have to cut back on my love for downhill skiing.

    Much Love and God’s Continued Blessings!'

  • Dr. Rochelle T. Andrews-Nuñez

    Dr. Nunez, a graduate of Howard University, received her Bachelor of Science in Biology.  At the young age of five, Dr. Nunez took a curious liking to the field of Dentistry after her mother, who is also a general practitioner, completed dental work on her. She was so amazed at what she had done that she was positive that this was the career path she wanted to follow.  When she received her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) from Temple University, her dream finally came true!

    It is Dr. Nunez’s strong belief that Dentistry is a God given gift that she can use to serve and help others.  She practices dentistry with a soft, caring touch on all her patients.

    Dr. Nunez continues to excel in the field of dentistry; she has completed Comprehensive Orthodontic Training through the United States Dental Institute (USDI) and currently practices in the area of Invisalign. Dr. Nunez has received Comprehensive and Clinical training at the MIS Institute for Implant Placement Surgery and is also accredited in Biolase Laser Technologies .

    Dr. Nunez grew up in the DC Metropolitan Area.  She attended the Academy of the Holy Cross (Kensington, MD).  Dr. Nunez is an accomplished violinist who also enjoys playing the piano, singing, traveling, skiing, cooking, spending time with her husband and their twin boys, and cheering on her favorite team, the Washington Redskins!! GO ‘SKINS!!
