Welcome to my virtual home on the
Web! Allow me to introduce myself. In 1999, after working in San
Francisco for a number of years, I decided to open a practice on the
Peninsula. My goal was (and still is) to be able to provide the type of
high-quality dental care that I feel all patients deserve. Towards that
end, I am always on the lookout for new techniques and technologies
that will provide the best results for my patients. I also spend over
160 hours a year in advanced education classes and new equipment
evaluation seminars.

At the same time, I strive to
foster an office environment where my patients can feel comfortable
discussing their treatment options. I believe that the dentist-patient
relationship is a true partnership, and I want to make sure that the
lines of communication between myself and my patients always remain
open.
I have been fortunate to have spent most of my life in the Bay Area. I
graduated from the University of California at Berkeley in 1989, and
received my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of
California at San Francisco School of Medicine in 1994. I am a member
in good standing of the American Dental Association, the California
Dental Association, and the San Mateo Dental Society.
Please take a moment to explore this website and find out more about
our office. If you have any questions or if you would like to make an
appointment, please give us a call. I look forward to meeting you!

Selecting a dental office should
involve more than simply picking a name at random from a phone book or
insurance pamphlet. To achieve your best oral health, you must be both
comfortable with, and confident in, your dental care provider. Some key
points to consider include:
- What is the dentist's practice philosophy?
- What kind of cleanliness/safety protocols are in
place at the office?
- Are the office staff members cheerful, efficient, and
competent?
- Does the dentist keep up-to-date on the latest
advances in dental science?
Of course, this is not a comprehensive list, but it should give you an
idea of what you can look for when evaluating a dental office.
