Dear Friends,

I am excited to share important news about our practice. After many years of serving this wonderful community, I have transitioned ownership to Dr. Morgan Collins. This change allows me more time off while ensuring the practice continues under dedicated, capable leadership committed to the same compassionate, high-quality care that has always been provided here.

It has been my privilege to care for you and your families. I am thankful for the trust, friendship, and loyalty you have shown over the years. To keep delivering the exceptional care this practice is known for, I carefully selected Dr. Morgan Collins. She shares my philosophy of patient-centered dentistry, treats every person with warmth and respect, and brings the outstanding skills and energy needed to lead the practice forward. I have full confidence in her ability to maintain and even enhance the standards my team and I have built together.

Born and raised in Alabama, Dr. Collins is a graduate of the UAB School of Dentistry and completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at The Foundry Dental Center. She earned certifications in implants and bone grafting while still pursuing traditional restorative dentistry. She has been practicing for four years and is excited to have become a part of our community. She is married to her husband of seven years, Forrest, and enjoys spending her free time with him and her sweet dog, Bindi. She focuses on building trusting relationships, listening to patients’ needs, and providing personalized treatment for comfort and long-term oral health.

I look forward to this new chapter for the practice. It will operate seamlessly, with the same friendly team and high standards you know and trust. Dr. Collins will be assuming treatment responsibilities and records while we jointly review cases to ensure continuity of care. She is eager to meet with each of you and provide the personalized attention you deserve. Please join us in celebrating this transition and welcoming Dr. Collins! If you have an upcoming appointment or would like to schedule one, our team is ready to assist. Reach out with any questions, we are here for you and your family.

Thank you for your continued trust and loyalty. I am grateful for the opportunity to have cared for your smiles.

Warmest regards,

Russell Brandau, DMD
