Philosophy of Care

My number one long-term goal when it comes to providing dental care to my patients is to have the patient happy and excited to return for future visits. This begins with carefully listening to patient’s questions and concerns, communicating findings and treatment options and recommendations, and taking a little extra time to provide painless injections. I aim to provide the best and efficient dental care possible based on my many years of experience, care, skill, and judgement. This is the way I would like to be treated.

Professional Focus

I thoroughly enjoy working with children with an important goal of preventing dental fear from the earliest visit and creating positive dental visit experiences for the future. This begins with creating dialog and trust with my young patients. For nearly 25 years, I had a private practice limited exclusively to children. It was very rewarding to experience children’s dental journey from childhood into adulthood without deep fears of the dentist felt by many.

Fun Facts

I enjoy living here in Florida with my wife. When I am not working, I enjoy kayaking, golfing, home repairs, treasure hunting, and visiting our two lovely grandchildren.
