Bruce Parker DMD - General dentist in Pittsburgh, PA

Each member of our treatment team is a registered assistant, and our office staff has years of experience in treating patients with the highest level of care. Furthermore, we strive to remain aware of the very latest in technology and improved procedures by regularly attending continuing education courses and seminars.

I am a graduate from the University Of Pittsburgh School Of Dental Medicine Hygiene Program. I also have my Bachelor of Science degree from Penn State University in Bio behavioral Health. I have been working with Dr. Parker for over 7 years. I reside in Greensburg with my husband, our two kids, and our cat. Outside of the office, I enjoy yoga and many outdoor activities, especially mountain biking and skiing.

Though my clerical and customer service experience was beneficial, the dental field was completely new to me when I joined this team in March of 2012. Since then, I have enjoyed learning about dentistry and I look forward to learning more! I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh in 2010 with a degree in English Literature and Gender Studies. I spend my free time reading, writing, eating delicious vegetarian food, pretending I know how to cook, going to concerts, and playing with my cats.

I graduated from Point Park University in May of 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism and Mass Communications. I started work as a receptionist in Dr. Parkers office in September of 2014. Though the field of dentistry is brand new to me, the communications skills I earned in college help me to learn and absorb the complexities of the business. I was born and raised on the North Side of Pittsburgh in the Observatory Hill neighborhood. Outside of work I spend most of my time at concerts and movie theaters and playing disc golf.

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Healthcare Education from the University of Pittsburgh along with my certificate in Dental Hygiene. The best part of my job is working with patients and educating them on good oral health! In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family and practicing photography. I also love dogs and plan to have one (or more) in the future!

I graduated from West Liberty State College with a bachelors in dental hygiene. The best part of being a hygienist is getting to work with and help many interesting people. I pride myself on my ability to connect with patients and ensure everyone in my chair is comfortable. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and daughter, playing with my Scottish Terrior Angus, going to estate sales and auctions, camping, and riding ATVs! I am a die-hard Penn State fan, which is where my daughter goes to school.

I joined the team in March of 2015 with 9 years of experience. As an EFDA, I really enjoy helping patients understand the importance of a healthy smile and meeting their aesthetic needs. In my free time, I enjoy biking, kayaking, and cooking. I look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve the perfect smile!

I have been in the dental field as an assistant for the past 26 years. I received my training through the American Red Cross at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. The most rewarding part of my career is being able to make a difference in a persons smile!

I have an associate degree in dental assisting and have been an assistant for 8 years. The best part of my job is the gratification I receive from helping others feel happy about their smiles! Outside of work, I love spending time with my two beautiful daughters. When theyre not keeping me busy, I also enjoy scrapbooking and outdoor activities.

Unreliable office. My first two cleanings here were good. However, my last cleaning was the most painful cleaning I've ever had. The male hygienist jabbed me 3-4 times in the gums or mouth with the pointed metal pick. A couple of those times those places were even near my teeth. I looked at him and he jabbed me while not even looking at me but looking at the clock. After that, they cancelled my next cleaning very last minute because they were short staffed and said they'd call back to reschedule. I waited for weeks. They never bothered calling to reschedule. Every time the wait is 6 months to even get in for a cleaning. Very annoyed. However, the dentist is very nice and professional. He comes in for 5 minutes to take a look at your mouth. The equipment is also better than some other offices.

Dr. Parker himself is a respectable professional. However, the way this office is running is just way chaotic than you can imagine. They would cancel your appointment in the last minute with excuses "Doctor is having a trip" or "hygienist is not available", and put you on a appointment 6 month later without any effort trying to make things right. Our family used here for some time and decided to switch to other responsible places.

He has bad manners and recommend a $350 dollar procedure that my new dentist say can be avoided with a $50 fix. I will not recommend this to any friends he has a scary demeanor and isn't friendly.

Been going here for 7 years now. Best dentist I ever had. I will definitely go here until he either retires, moves his practice, or I move too far away. Thank you for everything you've done for me Dr. Parker, I truly appreciate your dedication.

A friend recently recommended Dr. Parker. I have had nothing but great experiences with him and the entire staff. Unlike many places these days that feel impersonal and all business, Dr. Parker and his staff are personable and kind. I feel like I am being treated like a human being! That makes all the difference at the dentist! In addition, I trust Dr. Parker's skills as a dentist completely. Thank you!

Dr Parker is very knowledgeable and has a great interactive style with patients. He explains the next steps to patients very clearly. He goes the extra mile in making himself available to patients for appointments. His staff are insurance experts. I highly recommend him.

Found Dr. Parker on my insurance's website. Went in for my first appointment and everyone was so friendly - from the front desk staff, to the hygienists, to Dr. Parker himself, everyone was super friendly. I really appreciated that they explained everything they were doing before they did it so I knew what was going on. Oleg, my hygienist, was awesome taking the time to explain to me what he was looking for in the x-rays. Overall I highly recommend this office!
