Office Visit: Dr. Bonciel Griffin-Burress This Townie is about to open her third orthodontic practice in Chicago’s southern neighborhoods, having returned to the area she grew up in. “I feel a strong sense of purpose when I meet neighborhood kids—I can relate to them, let them know we come from the same area and that they can be a doctor too,” she says.
