Q: What investments in your practice equipment and facilities have you made?
A: 
My office is committed to providing our patients with high-end dental care using the latest technology. Towards that end, I've installed digital x-rays and the Panorex panoramic x-ray system, Erbium Yag and Nd Yag laser units, and Zoom bleaching. All of our patient records are stored digitally, for easy reference and to save paper.

Q: Tell us about the education you've had for dentistry.
A: I earned my DDS from Columbia University in 1971. I was later certified in prosthodontics at NYU. I am currently co-director of Dentistry at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in LA and co-director of the Cedars Hospital Dental General Practice Residency Program.

Q: What brought you to the LA area?
A: 
I originally moved here because of my wife's family. I love the area and the hospital community because of all the challenging opportunities and stimulating connections it provides. I currently chair the hospital's Bioethics Committee and am involved politically with the ADA and CDA on healthcare reform.

Q: What 5 procedures do you feel your practice excels in above others?
A: I feel we excel in:

  • cosmetic reconstructions
  • veneers
  • crowns
  • dentures
  • hospital and sedation dentistry
  • minimally invasive dentistry
