Dr. Angela W. Southwell’s warm demeanor makes going to the dentist a breeze.  With a sincere love for people, Dr. Southwell believes she can best impact the lives of others by improving their oral health. As the founder of Acacia Dental Group, her practice is designed with each patient’s comfort in mind. Built on a solid foundation, Dr. Southwell has been treating children and adults for many years and welcomes the whole family to her warm and inviting office. She holds a BS in Biology from Spelman College (Georgia), a MS in Biology from City College of the City University of New York (New York), and a DDS from Case Western University School of Dental Medicine (Ohio). Dr. Southwell also completed a General Practice Residency at St. Luke’s/St. Vincent’ Charity Hospital in Cleveland, OH. And as a lifelong learner, she regularly attends top dental courses to improve her skills and to keep up with the latest information in the field. Since moving to the Nashville area, she has worked in the surrounding area for the past ten years. But when Dr. Southwell is not changing lives one smile at a time, she can be found enjoying time with her family, reading, and going to the movies.
