DAVID HSU

Director of Christensen Sicat Hsu, DDS Inc. (S-Corporation)
I provide the corporate administrative support for SicatHSU Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery. I am an Army Veteran and met my wife Dr. Christensen Hsu when we were both on Active Duty and stationed in Okinawa, Japan. My best memory in life is watching my wife walk down the aisle on our wedding day! My proudest accomplishment is bringing my entire military unit home safely after a year-long combat tour in Iraq.
I'm a triathlete and have competed in various triathlons to include Ironman 70.3 Oceanside and the 2022 World Championship Off-Road Triathlon in Romania. Random fact: I have a corgi who can run as fast as me!
NADIA

Lead Patient Care Coordinator
I coordinate patient appointments and obtain pre-authorizations and pre-determinations to ensure accurate information regarding treatment plans. I help patients understand their dental insurance benefits, coordinate timely payments, and facilitate insurance reimbursements. I am the first Patient Care Coordinator to be hired at SHOMS since its establishment in September 2021. I am a trained Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Assistant (OMSA) and have successfully passed the OMSA Certification. This knowledge and skill enable me to provide additional information regarding treatment plans to patients.
I grew up in Sunny San Diego and in my free time I love trying new restaurants and go on road trips with my family.
TOMAS

Operations Coordinator
I coordinate the clinical and administrative operations for the practice. I also serve as a liaison for Dr. Hsu and business partners. I assist Nadia when she is out of office and ensure patients are scheduled in a timely manner. I am an Artist by trade and graduated from Temple University in Japan. My artistic skills gave me the opportunity to design the official logo for SHOMS.
I grew up on Philippine Cuisine but love Italian and Japanese food. I enjoy pop culture and love expressing it through my art. When I have a free Saturday, I volunteer at the nearby ranch in Bonsall to help care for a dozen race horses. My favorite horse at the ranch is No Foolin.
CHAD
Registered Nurse
I am the Registered Nurse for SHOMS currently pursuing a doctorate in nurse anesthesia. Patient safety and maintaining our high standard of care are my top priorities.
I perform the medical interview to help determine the best course of care, monitor and assist in surgical procedures, and your first resource in post-op care. I'm a former collegiate swimmer from UC Davis and lifeguard. An 80's soul, favorite movies being TOP Gun and Rocky. I am also a guitarist, weightlifter, and jiu jitsu fighter. Random Facts: Favorite animal is tiger yet I'm a dog person and a weakness for pizza.
OLIVIA

Surgical Assistant
I am a Registered Dental Assistant and proud to have graduated with a 4.0 GPA throughout the program. I was also rewarded with a Perfect Attendance Award. I am one of Dr. Hsu's surgical assistants and have learned a great deal about surgery in just a short amount of time. I aspire to become certified in Advance Cardiac Life Support and to continue to work in the surgical specialty.
I love to cook, bake, and most importantly make my products beautiful and presentable. Having twenty-three immediate family members make FAMILY a big part of my life. I love coffee and carbonara pasta! My favorite movie is A League of Their Own.
