Bio
I grew up in West Orange, NJ. After completing my dental education at the University of Pennsylvania, I was honored with the opportunity to participate in a wonderful one year general practice residency at The Jewish General Hospital in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Upon completion of that program, I returned to New Jersey for six months; then purchased a general practice where I worked for 18 months. I sold that to return to Temple University in 1980 for the endodontic program. I completed the specialty practice in 1982 and have been the endodontist in King of Prussia ever since.
What I Love Most About My Job
I get to work with some great people on our staff. And I have been blessed with the opportunity to help people when they most need it, dealing with resolution of pain or infection. These are often challenging situations, and as a specialist I get the difficult ones, but most of these issues are successfully resolved. There is a lot of satisfaction in this.
