  Dr. Presley-Nelson Dr. Wendy Fung  

Dr. Presley-Nelson was born in Southern California (Victorville) and was raised in Arizona. She grew up in Tucson and lived in Phoenix in the 70s. She also lived in Arkansas (her parent's home state) and in Colorado briefly as a child.

She met her future husband, Gary, at the University of Arizona in 1969.

Graduating from dental hygiene college and working as a hygienist sparked her interest in becoming a dentist. She and her husband moved to San Francisco in 1979 when she was accepted at the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry.

After graduation from University of the Pacific School of Dentistry in 1982, Dr. Presley-Nelson and her husband spent some time in Bejing, China, where he computerized China's major universities and she taught at Bejing Stomatological Hospital, the largest dental school there.

Upon return to San Francisco, she taught at the University of Pacific School of Dentistry and opened her practice on Taraval Street (a few blocks from her house at the time—now they live near West Portal Avenue) in the Parkside district of the City. She taught at the dental school for nearly a decade as an Assistant Professor and also served on the Alumni Board of Driectors for 6 years. She continues to be active at the dental school and is in constant pursuit of continuing education.

She is active at West Portal Lutheran Church and volunteers teaching music to children at Golden Gate Philharmonic. She and Gary have two sons.

Patients drive long distances to seek her dental care, and some even fly in from as far as London!

Dr. Fung will be helping Dr. Presley-Nelson expand her office hours and provide some much sought-after evening appointments. Dr. Presley-Nelson has confidence in Dr. Fung's knowledge, attention to detail, compassion, and gentle touch you have come to expect.

Dr. Fung graduated with a D.D.S. degree from Baylor College of Dentistry in 1997. She moved here from Texas to be closer to family and is excited to explore the beautiful West Coast and all that San Francisco has to offer.

She is experienced in all phases of dentistry, and she loves working with children. She is committed and dedicated to the profession of dentistry, having served on the Board of Directors of the San Antonio District Dental Society in Texas. She has also previously been certified to provide dental treatment in an operating room setting at multiple surgery centers in Texas.

She takes pride in providing the best possible service, and she is excited about joining Dr. Presley-Nelson's team to serve you.

Outside the office, Dr. Fung enjoys traveling, reading, and running. In fact, her first big race was the San Francisco Half-Marathon.
