It is my sincere belief that I was born to be an orthodontist. I love the challenge, the science, and most of all, the people. I want to be able to provide the best clinical care, cutting no corners, at an affordable price that will benefit patients biologically and emotionally for a lifetime. I take great joy in providing someone else with the best care possible with sincere and friendly interaction.
I consider myself a student of life; I love the science and the detail of orthodontics. I earned my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine. While in dental school, I scored in the top one percent of all dental students on national board exams. I then spent an additional three years specializing in orthodontics at the University of Pittsburgh Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics Masters program.
I am originally from Greensburg, PA, and have lived in Gettysburg for the past 13 years. My wife, Katherine, and I have one daughter, Lauren, and twin sons, Anderson and August. I love every second I get to spend with my family, and consider them to be the greatest blessings in my life. I also enjoy outdoor activities and being active in the community through St. Francis Parish.
At our orthodontic practice, we work hard to treat our patients the same way we would like to be treated: with respect, professionalism, and sensitivity toward our needs. We understand the expectations of the patients and families we serve, and we do everything we can to make sure that each patient has an exceptional experience at our practice.
