A Message from Dr. DJ

Originally from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Dr. LaDijah Shivers is passionate about public healthcare and is a dedicated provider of oral health. She is a Christian and in her spare time she enjoys dancing, music, movies, shopping, and DIY projects. Dr. Shivers also enjoys spending time with her family, including her husband and their daughter. Her personal mission at Charles Drew Health Center:

Since I learned about public health clinic and the population that they served, I knew that I needed to provide care in this area. I moved to Omaha in 2017 and one of the first service projects that I participated in was here (Earn-A-Bike). Charles Drew Health Center serves so many different people, regardless of their background and I want to be a part of the body of healthcare providers at CDHC working tirelessly to help make the North Omaha and Greater Omaha Area healthier.

My passion for healthcare stems from my experiences as a child. Growing up, I witnessed my family’s relationship with oral health care and realized for many going to the dentist and receiving routine dental care is a luxury. As I had more experiences in the dental field, I decided that a part of my mission in life is to help build the bridge between quality and affordable care as well as erase the negative stigma associated with dental care. I am passionate about providing the best care to you that I can provide. If I don’t know the answer to something, I will quickly find out.

Becoming my patient means that I will empower you to become an advocate for yourself, especially when it comes to your health. As a part of my patient family, know that I am dedicated to giving you my very best efforts at all times.
