63 years old. 35 years in dentistry. Hard to believe. ❤️
Seeing the article about me in the local papers really made me stop and think about this journey.
What started with a small practice has grown into something I’m so proud of. Today we have 6 doctors, 3 specialists, and an amazing Smile Team caring for families throughout Bergen and Rockland Counties.
I’m incredibly grateful for all of them especially my son Brandon and daughter-in-law Ayesa. They are the reason I can finally leave the drill on the table and step away from clinical dentistry knowing our patients are in such good hands.
But I’m definitely not done. 😊
This next chapter is about coaching and mentoring our younger doctors, doing more speaking, sharing what I’ve learned over 35 years, creating content around dentistry, leadership, health, and life—and of course, traveling the world and experiencing as much of it as I can.
At 63, I’m not closing a chapter. I’m opening a new one.........And I have a feeling the best part may still be ahead. ❤️
