Why Choose Us?
My Practice Philosophy
After finishing my five years of post dental school graduate education, I was exposed to a handful of practices as an independent contractor and associate. That is when I came to realize that my additional education had prepared me to provide a different level of care and approach in dentistry than my fellow colleagues. I knew that the only way I would practice was to own and operate my own practice in order to provide my unique approach and deliver the highest standards of care and customer service.
As Dental Surgeon and Anesthesiologist I have a unique advantage to safely control, pain, anxiety and reduce number of visits of treatment in a very pleasant manner. My approach can be described as the most advanced, personalized, safe approach in the most comfortable and efficient manner. Owning my own practice has provided me with the ability to tailor a practice with the best equipment, staff, use the best supplies and ancillary providers I can find and trust as well as my techniques.
My objectives and goals are to treat every patient as it was a family member in need of our services. Having the best diagnostic resources, staff, facility, and equipment to be accurate, efficient, proficient and provide the highest level of satisfaction and experience.
