Our Staff
Dr. Herminio Fernandes
Dr. Fernandes graduated from the University of Toronto in 1998 from the school of dentistry. After practicing for 3 years in Moose Factory, ON, he moved his practice south to Barrie - Northern Lights Dental. As the practice began to grow, he began to search for a new, bigger location. In the winter of 2010, Dentistry on Livingstone was opened. Dr. Fernandes has a passion for dentistry and helping patients achieve optimal oral health. He spends his free time with his wife and kids, at the cottage, and running marathons.
