In this episode, Dr. Rex Liu, owner of Family and Cosmetic Dentistry and a Vegas Chamber Trustee, shares his remarkable journey from humble beginnings to becoming a successful dentist, landlord, and community advocate.

Dr. Liu grew up in New York, Maryland, Texas, and Las Vegas, where he settled in fifth grade. Raised by Chinese immigrant parents, his early years taught him resilience, adaptability, and the importance of community. Dr. Liu attended the University of Southern California (USC) for undergraduate studies and dental school, inspired by a high school careers class and aptitude tests that guided him toward dentistry. His journey was supported by the WICHE program, which helped fund his education in exchange for serving Nevada’s underserved communities.

Over the years, Dr. Liu has grown his practice from a solo operation to a group practice, eventually becoming his own landlord. He emphasizes the importance of blending cutting-edge technology, like 3D imaging and printing, with the human touch to provide personalized, life-changing care for his patients. His practice focuses on improving oral health, boosting confidence, and enhancing quality of life—work that has earned numerous accolades, including the Business Excellence Award for Company Culture and Customer Service Excellence Award.

Outside of work, Dr. Liu enjoys bodybuilding, boating at Lake Mead, raising German shepherds, and participating in community theater. He encourages young people to stay active in their communities, embrace lifelong learning, and focus on self-improvement. “Prioritize your health and work on becoming the best version of yourself,” he advises.
