Dear Patients and Friends,
I hope this letter finds you safe and well during these trying times. As many of you know,I’ve been challenged by orthopaedic issues over the past two years and had a kneereplacement in January. I’ve been busy successfully rehabilitating my back and leg and I’mfeeling so much better. I was ready to return to work when Coronavirus hit, offsetting these plans. It is therefore, with mixed feelings, that I am announcing my retirement. I look forward to enjoying my family and teaching younger generations of dentists. For the last 40 years, it has been my privilege to take care of your dental needs. Your trust and confidence in me and my staff has been rewarding and we are appreciative for having had this opportunity. The relationships I have developed with many of you have been so special and I am grateful to call you my friends.
As I begin the next chapter of my life, I wanted to transition my practice and your care into the most capable and caring hands I know. I will be merging my practice with Goodman Dental Care. Dr. Gary Goodman has been a lifelong friend and colleague and has been my personal dentist for 40 years. In addition, his son Jeremy Goodman has been in practice with him since 2011. Dr. Gary Goodman and I went to dental school together and trained together at the Pankey Institute in Florida. Dr. Jeremy Goodman graduated from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry and trained at the Pankey Institute as well. They share my philosophy and approach to dental care and I know you will be well cared for.
