After Dr. Robert Coe graduated from the University of Southern California School of Dentistry in 1984, he came to North San Diego County because it is a beautiful, growing, dynamic area. He purchased a small insurance-based practice in Escondido in 1984. He then he purchased the practices current building in 1986 and worked to develop an honest, traditional dental practice since. He chose to do more quality, one-on-one patient care as opposed to high-volume, insurance-directed dentistry.
Dr. Coe has always been a math and science guy who enjoys interacting with people. He wanted to develop a business that was science-based but still entrepreneurial, and would allow a family life. We have been in practice since 1984!
