Dr. Johnson began his college education as an art major at Virginia Commonwealth University. After successfully completing the first portfolio building year and being accepted into the coveted commercial arts college, Dr. Johnson made a life changing decision and chose to pursue his other passion: to help. He followed the pre-medical route in his remaining years at VCU and graduated with honors with a B.S. in biology.

•    Master's degree in Biochemistry with a published thesis on chemical cascade pathways in brain cells from MCV/VCU.

Dr. Johnson loves working with his hands. He believes he has found the perfect combination for his talents for the arts and his desire to help people. He hopes that his patients understand and believe, as he does, that every tooth that he works on is a piece of functioning and living art.

Dr. Johnson continues to learn about the constant advancements in dentistry by building on his education and services that will provide the utmost comprehensive and highest standard of care for his patients.

 
Richard Duong, D.D.S..jpg

Richard Duong, DMD

A Virginia native, Dr. Richard Duong was born in Alexandria and spent his childhood in Springfield before moving to South Riding as a teenager. He spent his high school days on the varsity cross country, track & field teams and the symphonic band. Dr. Richard then graduated from Virginia Tech with dual bachelor degrees in biological sciences and psychology. Dentistry became his passion and calling when he shadowed a local dentist in his hometown. The ability to provide hands-on care for patients and to form relationships with them to achieve optimal oral health led him to the University of New England College of Dental Medicine in Portland, Maine. With dental school providing a strong didactic and clinical background, Dr. Richard completed a three month externship at a non-profit dental clinic in Winooski, Vermont rendering quality dentistry to the underserved population in the Greater Burlington metro area.

Upon graduating from dental school with his Doctorate of Dental Medicine degree, Dr. Richard returned home to much warmer weather and practiced as an associate in Winchester and Alexandria at private practices utilising the latest in technology and forming lasting impressions with his patients. A life-long learner, Dr. Richard is committed to continuing education and is a part of several organizations. He hopes to utilize all that he has learned and experienced to provide meaningful care for all of his patients. He is very excited to now serve Fredericksburg.

Personal

Dentistry provides an outstanding work-life balance and when not in the office you will find Dr. Richard in the gym, spending summertime in Maine, hiking a National Park (his goal is to visit all 63 before he dies), and spending quality time with his fiancee, Erika, who is a veterinarian and their adorable Shih Tzu, Cruise. He is a complete die-hard Virginia Tech Hokie and faithfully cheers on all DC sports teams.
